Overview Researchers at Milwaukee's private Medical College of Wisconsin dared to ask the hard questions when they applied for a highly competitive proteomics research grant from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) in 2002. Conducting proteomics research on a mixed hardware platform and 32-bit operating system was slowing the pace of discovery for academic researchers. This was challenging for the Researchers at Milwaukee's private Medical College of Wisconsin. The solution to this was achieved by deploying a high-performance Linux on POWER computing environment from IBM built on an IBM eServer BladeCenter chassis containing eight IBM BladeCenter JS20 blade servers running 64-bit SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server Version 8.0 technology; each blade server has two IBM PowerPC 970 processors and 4GB memory.
