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.

The read
Group 42's NVIDIA DGX-2 supercomputer in the UAE, TOP500 listing of Xeon Platinum 8168 24C hosts with NVIDIA Tesla V100 GPUs on InfiniBand EDR, 107,568 cores, 7.26 PFlop/s Rmax, 9.49 PFlop/s Rpeak and 673 kW. G42's 20 November 2019 announcement states a 26th place on the November 2019 TOP500, 7.2 PFlop/s of double-precision HPL and the first UAE entry in the top 100; its later TOP500 ranks run from 31st in June 2020 (19th on that month's Green500 at 10.783 GFlops/Watt) to 241st in June 2026. G42 does not publish the DGX-2 count or the site on the pages fetched, so the site is left blank.

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 |
|---|---|---|
| top500.org | names system and part | NVIDIA Tesla V100, Mellanox InfiniBand EDR |
