Operated by Cerebras at Colovore (Santa Clara) .
Phase 1 seed dataset, compiled by hand. These rows were built from public operator, laboratory and vendor sources. A mechanical second-reader pass has since fetched every cited source: 1092 of 1153 systems have a readable citation that names them, and 40 are genuinely weakly sourced. Every claim carries its source and a confidence tier. Treat anything below verified as a lead, not a citation.

Figures are as last publicly reported for the configuration described below, not a live measurement. Where a system was upgraded in place, the post-upgrade configuration is shown and the earlier one appears in the timeline.
What this machine is made of
One row per supplier relationship. “Supplier at build” is the company that shipped the part at the time; where that company has since been acquired, the parent it rolls up to today is shown beside it. That distinction is what makes ticker-level aggregation possible across a thirty-year dataset.
| Role | Part | Supplier at build | Quantity | Confidence | Source |

The read
Cerebras' 16-system CS-2 cluster with 13.5 million AI cores, unveiled in November 2022 in 16 racks at Colovore in Santa Clara and fed by 284 64-core third-generation AMD EPYC processors. Cerebras built and operates it and names Argonne, JasperAI and the University of Cambridge as users. Cerebras' release is the only source fetched, so the tier is reported; we found no independent hardware confirmation. Its 1 exaflop of AI compute and 120 petaflops of dense 16-bit compute are vendor claims on a different basis from HPL and are not recorded as FLOPS. The core figure is Cerebras' own count of AI cores, so the cores column stays blank. No later status was found.

Source check
We fetched this system's own citations and recorded whether each page actually mentions it. This is a corroboration signal, not a fact check, and it is published so you can see how well the sourcing holds up rather than take it on trust.
| Cited source | Result | Found on the page |
