Microsoft Eagle

Eagle is the name of part of a cluster at Microsoft that ran HPL and debuted at #3 on the Top500 listings for November 2023.¹ According to Mark Russinovich, it is a “tiny fraction” of a much larger supercomputer.² See Azure supercomputers for more.

The Eagle run used 14,400 H100 GPUs (1,800 Azure ND H100 v5 nodes) interconnected with InfiniBand to achieve 561,200 TFlop/s with $N_{\text{max}}=11,796,480$. This means the HPL run took 1,950 seconds.³

An Eagle node was publicly displayed at SC23 and photos were posted by ServeTheHome.⁴
