NASA seeks BeeGFS licenses and cluster support renewals for three HPC clusters

NASA is seeking BeeGFS licensing and support for three high-performance computing clusters at Goddard Space Flight Center. - Government buyer: National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), through the NASA Shared Services Center, for NASA Goddard Space Flight Center. - OEM: ThinkParQ GmbH, maker of BeeGFS, is the brand-name source specified for the file system licenses and support. The solicitation is restricted to authorized resellers; no reseller is named. - Requested products and quantities: - BeeGFS file system licenses for three HPC clusters; no part number is provided. - Almond cluster: 14 one-month BeeGFS Hive Enterprise Linux support units. - CocoNut cluster: 12 one-month BeeGFS Hive Enterprise Linux support units. - Peanut cluster: 22 one-month BeeGFS Hive Enterprise Linux support units. - Technical details: The support covers BeeGFS storage nodes, including ACTstor x2350 nodes in the Almond cluster and identified BeeGFS nodes and hostnames across all three clusters. No license or support part numbers are specified. - Notable requirements: BeeGFS is already operating in NASA’s HPC environment; continuing with it is intended to avoid integration, migration, retraining, and mission-continuity risks. The acquisition document notes that roughly $1.7 million in HPC hardware could be unusable as intended for several weeks without the software. Shipping costs must be included if applicable, and credit-card payment is not accepted. - Evaluation: The solicitation calls for a lowest-price, technically acceptable selection. Detailed licensing and technical requirements are in the attachments.
