WS example for bioinformatics analysis (budget 100 million)

■ This is an article posted on June 2019, 2, so the content of the information may be out of date.

The customer consulted on a workstation for bioinformatics analysis.

I wanted to configure with a Xeon CPU with a budget of 100 million yen, many cores and many threads (assuming about 20 cores), and performance per core is as high as possible, so 4116 Xeon Silver 2 installed (total). 24 cores). Regarding storage, we have prepared a large-capacity data area for bioinformatics analysis. It is said that the OS will be installed by the customer, but we can also install it.
