We consider a supersymmetric matrix quantum mechanics. This is obtained by adding Myers and mass terms to the dimensional reduction of 4D N=1 super Yang-Mills theory to one dimension. Using this model we construct 4D N=1 super Yang-Mills theory in the planar limit by using the Eguchi-Kawai equivalence. This regularization turns out to be free from the sign problem at the regularized level. The same matrix quantum mechanics is also used to provide a nonperturbative formulation of 4D N=1 super Yang-Mills theory on a noncommutative space.
