You Innovate | We Validate

DICE – a geographically distributed test environment - is the only test and evaluation center of its kind.  It is becoming the industry’s trusted source for independent product and technology testing, evaluation, architecture optimization and research.  Both vendors and end users require trusted, supported evidence that products and technologies meet promised standards and specifications. 

A vital component to technology development and investment

DICE is a resource everyone can use to test and validate new products and emerging technologies.  Whether you are a data center trying to maximize technology investments or a vendor striving to accelerate time-to-market for new product releases, it is critical that products function as specified.  DICE sites are representative HPC centers located throughout the U.S. with full connectivity among sites using high-speed, real-world wide area network capabilities.  But technology and equipment are not enough.  Our team of developers, testers and architects offer significant HPC and IT experience by working through the challenges and bottlenecks that are impacting America’s ability to lead supercomputing and information technology.

Improving quality, credibility and functionality

Using the DICE test and evaluation process, products and emerging technologies are independently and thoroughly evaluated using a test environment that mirrors real life.  Testing a wide range of attributes, DICE is the only test and evaluation environment of its kind and has become the trusted source for evaluating and validating new and emerging IT and HPC products and technologies.
