Puma is our latest supercomputer which came online in the middle of 2020. As is the case for our other supercomputers, we use the RFP process to get the best value for our financial resources, that meet our technical requirements. Ocelote arrived in 2016. Lenovo's Nextscale M5 technology was the winner of the RFP mainly on price, performance and meeting our specific requirements. This cluster is actually the next generation of the IBM cluster we call ElGato. Lenovo purchased IBM's Intel server line in 2015.
