DuPont is one of the world’s premier science companies. Its Central Research & Development (CR&D) IT leaders wanted to provide the company’s scientists with the power and flexibility of cloud-enhanced computing for its scientific application portfolio. DuPont CR&D chose the Intel® Xeon® processor 7500 series as the foundation of its science-focused highperformance computing (HPC) cloud. Now the processor’s performance, memory capacity, and virtualization capabilities are providing up to a 20x speed-up for critical applications compared to legacy systems. This enhanced capability helps DuPont to create a more dynamic research environment which, in the words of Tim Mueller, CIO for CR&D, “is transformational.â€
