Industry-Leading Sabalcore, Inc. Opens New Data Center in Melbourne to Substantially Increase Computing Capacity

ORLANDO, Fla. --- Sabalcore Computing, Inc., formerly known as Tsunamic Technologies Inc., has opened a new data center in Melbourne.

John Van Workum, president and chief executive officer of Sabalcore Computing, Inc., said the new data center will substantially expand Sabalcore’s cluster computing capacity to support new business and improved services for the company’s existing clients.

Sabalcore, which opened in 2000, maintains cluster computing networks that link hundreds of Linux-based computers to provide enormous online computing power to large-scale users at a fraction of the cost of dedicated servers, Van Workum explained.

Recently, Sabalcore won a major contract from the U.S. Naval Air Warfare Center Weapons Division (NAWCWD) Geophysics Branch at China Lake to provide computing time to power weather modeling and analysis to support battlefield operations.

“Sabalcore’s high performance computing networks were specifically designed to provide the enormous volume of computing power such complex calculations require,” Van Workum said.
Sabalcore’s cluster computing networks have played a key role in computer aided engineering, oil and gas exploration , weather modeling and prediction, genomics, helping communities predict the spread of infectious diseases, and modeling the benefits and effects of experimental pharmaceuticals.

Sabalcore is a client company of the University of Central Florida’s Business Incubation Program in the Central Florida Research Park in east Orlando.
