During its first 3 years (2003-2005), referred to as
openlab First Phase, the openlab focused on a
High-Performance Computing and Networking (HPCN) project: the
opencluster.
The partners were Enterasys, IBM, Intel, HP, Oracle,
complemented with Voltaire as contributor.
The objective was the construction of a

Intel's Itanium Processor Family (IPF) processors,
Enterasys's 10-Gbps switches and
a high-capacity storage system based on IBM's Storage Tank
system.
