Aurora is Argonne National Laboratory's pioneering Exascale supercomputer, designed to accelerate scientific discovery with cutting-edge architectural innovations. Key new technologies include the Intel(TM) Xeon(TM) Data Center GPU Max Series (code-named Sapphire Rapids) with support for High Bandwidth Memory (HBM), alongside the Intel(TM) Data Center GPU Max Series (code-named Ponte Vecchio) on each compute node. Aurora also integrates the Distributed Asynchronous Object Storage (DAOS), a novel exascale storage solution, and leverages Intel's oneAPI programming environment. This paper presents an in-depth exploration of Aurora's node architecture, the HPE Slingshot interconnect, the supporting software ecosystem, and DAOS. We provide insights into standard benchmark performance and applications readiness efforts via Aurora's Early Science Program and the Exascale Computing Project.
