AMD and Eviden, the advanced computing brand of the Atos Group, have been selected to build Alice Recoque, France’s first and Europe’s second exascale supercomputer.
The machine will support high-performance computing and artificial intelligence research under a project led by France’s GENCI. Funded with 554 million euros through EuroHPC JU, the system is designed to strengthen Europe’s computing sovereignty.
Alice Recoque will be powered by next-generation AMD EPYC CPUs, codenamed “Venice,” and AMD Instinct MI430X GPUs capable of exceeding one exaflop of HPL performance. The machine will run on Eviden’s BullSequana XH3500 architecture with DDN storage and integrated liquid cooling.
The system is expected to advance climate modeling, materials research, energy development, digital-twin medicine, and next-generation European AI models by combining large-scale simulations, data analysis and AI workloads.
Comprising 94 racks, the supercomputer is designed to reach exascale performance while using fewer components and up to 50 percent better GPU energy efficiency compared with similar systems. Each GPU carries 432 GB of HBM4 memory and 19.6 TB/s bandwidth to support large-scale AI training and scientific workloads.
