Fujitsu to design Japan’s zetta-class supercomputer that’s 1000 times more powerful
Japanese technology company Fujitsu has been selected by the RIKEN research institute to design FugakuNext, Japan’s next-generation flagship supercomputer. Building on the success of Fugaku, which debuted in 2020 and achieved 442 petaFLOPS performance, FugakuNext aims to be a zetta-class supercomputer with performance approximately 1000 times greater than current systems. The project reflects Japan’s strategic focus on integrating AI with scientific simulations and real-time data, a concept known as “AI for Science,” to maintain leadership in science and innovation. The design phase, including the overall system, computer nodes, and CPU components, will continue until February 2026, with a total budget for the build expected to be around $750 million. Fujitsu will utilize its advanced CPUs, specifically the FUJITSU-MONAKA3 and its successor MONAKA-X, to power FugakuNext. These CPUs are engineered for high performance and energy efficiency and will enable the supercomputer

Paderborn University’s new supercomputer, Otus, has achieved the rank of fifth most energy-efficient supercomputer globally on the Green 500 list, which benchmarks high-performance computing systems based on energy efficiency rather than raw speed. Otus, developed by Lenovo and pro-com Datensysteme GmbH, features 142,656 processor cores, 108 GPUs, AMD’s latest ‘Turin’ processors, and a five-petabyte IBM Spectrum Scale file system. It operates entirely on renewable energy, uses indirect free cooling for year-round efficiency, and repurposes its exhaust heat to warm buildings, underscoring its sustainability credentials. The supercomputer is expected to be fully operational by the third quarter of 2025. Otus nearly doubles the computing power of its predecessor, Noctua, enabling it to handle a wide range of CPU-intensive tasks such as atomic simulations and quantum computing. Its expandable architecture supports up to 100 field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs),
