05 Jul 2011
IBM has been ranked as the leader in Supercomputer Education and Research Centre's recently released India's Top Supercomputers list for 2011.
IBM said in a statement that it had topped the list with 10 out of 16 high-performance computing installations across India.
According to SERC, Bangalore led the rest of cities in the list of number of supercomputers, with Chennai at the second spot.
Seventy-six per cent of Indian firms found server virtualisation a significant challenge, according to security firm Symantec's 2011 Virtualisation and Evolution to the Cloud Survey.
According to one in two respondents, security concerns reduced confidence in placing mission-critical applications on virtualised servers.
Further, reduction in datacentre (storage) requirements was a goal for 93 per cent of the respondents, but achieved by only 33 per cent, a release from the firm stated.
