IBM Spectrum Symphony, previously known as IBM Platform Symphony and Platform Symphony[2], is a High-performance computing (HPC) software system developed by Platform Computing, the company that developed Load Sharing Facility (LSF). Focusing on financial services,[3] Symphony is designed to deliver scalability and enhances performance for compute-intensive risk and analytical applications.[4] The product lets users run applications using distributed computing.[5]

Version 4.0, Platform included a developer edition with no restrictions or time limits.[6] Symphony Developer Edition is a free high-performance computing (HPC) and grid computing software development kit and middleware.[7] It has been described as "the first and only solution tailored for developing and testing Grid-ready service-oriented architecture applications".[8]
