ORLANDO,
Fla., (Nov.
2, 2009) --- Tsunamic
Technologies, Inc. is rebranding itself and relaunching as Sabalcore
Computing, Inc.
Located
in East Orange County, the company, which provides Linux-based
cluster computing power to large-scale users such as the U.S.
Naval Air Systems Command,
secured the Sabalcore.com web domain and recently relaunched itself
as Sabalcore, Inc.
Sabalcore’s
cluster computing networks link hundreds of Linux-based computers
to provide enormous online computing power to large-scale users
at a fraction of the cost of in-house solutions, explained John
Van Workum, president and chief executive officer.
"We
chose to rename our company to more accurately reflect the Company's
current growth, mission and vision for future growth and to clearly
communicate our commitment to our customers. The name ‘Sabalcore’ is
derived from the CPU ‘core’ found in modern processors
and the ‘Sabal’ Palm tree which is indigenous to
Florida and is remarkably steadfast, resistant to fire, floods,
cold, high winds and drought. By
aligning our corporate name with our core business offering,
we are communicating to the investment community and customers
the Company's ongoing focus of quality service and performance,” 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, located in the northeast of California's
Mojave Desert, to provide computing time that powers weather modeling
and analysis in support of the Navy’s global battlefield
operations.
“Sabalcore’s
cluster computing networks were specifically designed to provide
the enormous volume of computing power such complex calculations
require,” Van Workum said.
Sabalcore’s
high performance computing networks have played a key role in weather
prediction, computer aided engineering, oil exploration, market
analysis, genomics, helping communities predict the spread of infectious
diseases, and modeling the benefits and effects of experimental
pharmaceuticals.
Sabalcore
Computing Inc. is a client company of the University of Central
Florida’s Business Incubation Program in the Central Florida
Research Park in east Orlando.
