Linux Cluster Vendor Penguin Making Its Move

When Charles Wuischpard came to Penguin Computing in January 2007 as president of worldwide field operations, he found a company that lacked focus, had stagnant financials and was trying to serve too many markets.

In the two years since, Wuischpard—now president and CEO—has refocused the company primarily on the HPC (high-performance computing) space, paring the bulk of its general Linux computing business—though keeping some loyal Web customers—and reducing expenses.
