About Cray Inc.

Cray Inc. engages in the design, development, manufacture, marketing, and service of high performance computing (HPC) systems (supercomputers) in the United States, Canada, Europe, Japan, and the Asia-Pacific.

Products

Cray XT5 System: The Cray XT5 system is the company’s principal massively parallel processing (MPP) system. The system has double the compute density and memory bandwidth of previous systems in the same footprint, supporting high density processor configurations of 192 (four- or six-core) AMD Opteron processor sockets or up to 1,152 processor cores and delivering approximately 11 teraflops (11 trillion floating point operations per second) of computational capacity per cabinet, with system peak and sustained performance designed to exceed one petaflops. Customers can upgrade to the Cray XT5 system from Cray XT3 or Cray XT4 systems and/or add on to the existing Cray XT systems. Its Linux-based operating system supports a range of applications.

Cray XT5m System: The company’s Cray XT5m supercomputer is designed to make its HPC technology available to users. The Cray XT5m system incorporates a version of its Cray SeaStar network specially designed and optimized for systems with performance of approximately 70 teraflops, providing superior bandwidth, upgradeability, and manageability. Offered with up to six cabinets, the Cray XT5m series features many-core (four- or six-core) AMD Opteron processors and can be air or liquid cooled through use of Cray ECOphlex technology. The Cray Linux Environment enables the use of a range of open source tools, as well as streamlined porting of a set of applications from independent software vendors.

Cray CX1 System: The Cray CX1 system, purpose-built for offices, laboratories and university departments requiring workgroup servers, incorporates up to 8 nodes and 16 Intel Xeon processors, either dual or quad core, and delivers up to 8 cores and up to 64 gigabytes of memory per node (with up to 64 cores per chassis), with up to 24 terabytes of internal storage with in a chassis.

Cray XMT System: The company’s Cray XMT supercomputer is a scalable massively multithreaded platform with a shared memory architecture suited for tasks, such as pattern matching, scenario development, behavioral prediction, anomaly identification, and graph analysis. Each Cray Threadstorm processor is directly connected to a Cray SeaStar2 interconnect chip, resulting in a high bandwidth, low latency network.

Products in Development

Cray XT6 and XT6m Systems: The Cray XT6 and Cray XT6m systems were announced in November 2009 and are its next generation of MPP systems. These systems have almost double the compute density and memory bandwidth of Cray XT5 systems in the same footprint, supporting very high density processor configurations of 192 many-core (eight- or twelve-core) AMD Opteron processor sockets or up to 2,300 processor cores and delivering approximately 17 teraflops (17 trillion floating point operations per second) of computational capacity per cabinet, with system peak and sustained performance designed to exceed four petaflops. Customers can upgrade to the Cray XT6/6m systems from Cray XT5/5m systems and/or add on to the existing Cray XT systems. Compute blades for the Cray XT6/6m systems also have increased memory bandwidth, with four-channel DDR3 memory support. Their Linux-based operating system supports a range of applications.

Baker: The Baker system would utilize a high-performance interconnect called Gemini that combines technologies of the Cray XT and prior Cray XD1 systems and would integrate the core processors from the Cray XT6 system in a choice of air or liquid-cooled (ECOphlex) cabinets.

ANALYSIS FEATURES

SWOT Analysis

SWOT, which stands for Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats, is an analytical framework that identifies the internal and external factors that are favorable and unfavorable for a company.

Enhanced SWOT Analysis

Enhanced SWOT is a 3×3 grid that arranges strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats into one scheme:

• How to use the strengths to take advantage of the opportunities?
• How to use the strengths to reduce likelihood and impact of the threats?
• How to overcome the weaknesses that obstruct taking advantage of the opportunities?
• How to overcome the weaknesses that can make the threats a reality?

Upon answering these questions a company can develop a project plan to improve its business performance.

PESTEL Analysis

PESTEL (also termed as PESTLE) is an ideal tool to strategically analyze what influence different outside factors – political, economic, sociocultural, technological, environmental and legal – exert on a business to later chart its long term targets.

Being part of the external analysis when carrying out a strategic assessment or performing a market study, PESTEL gives an overview of diverse macro-environmental factors that any company should thoughtfully consider. By perceiving these outside environments, businesses can maximally benefit from the opportunities while minimizing the threats to the organization.

Key Factors Examined by PESTEL Analysis:

• Political – What opportunities and pressures are brought by political bodies and what is the degree of public regulations’ impact on the business?
• Economic – What economic policies, trends and structures are expected to affect the organization, what is this influence’s degree?
• Sociological – What cultural and societal aspects will work upon the demand for the business’s products and operations?
• Technological – What impact do the technological aspects, innovations, incentives and barriers have on the organization?
• Environmental – What environmental and ecological facets, both locally and farther afield, are likely to predetermine the business?
• Legal – What laws and legislation will exert influence on the style the business is carried out?

IFE, EFE, IE Matrices

The Internal Factor Evaluation matrix (IFE matrix) is a strategic management tool helping audit or evaluate major weaknesses and strengths in a business’s functional areas. In addition, IFE matrix serves as a basis for identifying and assessing relationships amongst those areas. The IFE matrix is utilised in strategy formulation.

The External Factor Evaluation matrix (EFE matrix) is a tool of strategic management that is typically utilised to assess current market conditions. It is an ideal instrument for visualising and prioritising the threats and opportunities a firm is facing.

The essential difference between the above mentioned matrices lies in the type of factors incorporated in the model; whilst the latter is engaged in internal factors, the former deals exceptionally with external factors – those exposed to social, political, economic, legal, etc. external forces.

Being a continuation of the EFE matrix and IFE matrix models, the Internal External matrix (IE matrix) rests upon an investigation of external and internal business factors integrated into one suggestive model.

Porter Five Forces Analysis

The Porter’s five forces analysis studies the industry of operation and helps the company find new sources of competitive advantage. The analysis surveys an industry through five major questions:

1. What composes a threat of substitute products and services?
2. Is there a threat of new competitors entering the market?
3. What is the intensity of competitive rivalry?
4. How big is the bargaining power of buyers?
5. How significant is the bargaining power of suppliers?

VRIO Analysis

VRIO stands for Value, Rarity, Imitability, Organization. This analysis helps to evaluate all company’s resources and capabilities and bring them together into one aggregate table that includes:

• Tangible resources
  • Financial
  • Physical
  • Technological
  • Organizational
• Intangible resources
  • Human
  • Innovation and Creativity
  • Reputation
• Organizational capabilities

The result of the analysis gives a clear picture of company’s competitive and economic implications, answering the questions if the resources mentioned above are:

• Valuable?
• Rare?
• Costly to imitate?
• Organized properly?
