Longhorn was a Dell/NVIDIA visualization and data analysis cluster at Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC) that served as the Extreme Science and Engineering Discovery Environment (XSEDE) project's dedicated scientific visualization service until it was decommissioned from XSEDE service in April of 2014.

XSEDE replaced Longhorn with Maverick (TACC), an interactive visualization and data analytics system that features a hybrid Hewlett-Packard/NVIDIA architecture.
