Performance Intensive Computing

Content creators in media and entertainment need lots of compute, storage and networking. Supermicro servers with AMD EPYC processors are enhancing the creativity of these content creators by offering improved rendering and high-speed storage. These systems empower the production of creative ideas.  

Supermicro Inc. is celebrating its 30th year of research, development and manufacturing. At the company, formed in 1993, some things remain the same. Founder Charles Liang remains Supermicro’s president and CEO. And the company is still based in California’s Silicon Valley.

The intelligent edge has emerged as an essential component of the internet of things. By moving compute and storage close to where data is generated, the intelligent edge provides greater control, flexibility, speed and even security.

The intelligent edge moves compute, storage and networking capabilities close to end devices, where the data is being generated. Organizations gain the ability to process and act on that data in real time, and without having to first transfer that data to the a centralized data center.

Supermicro has introduced five Supermicro H13 WIO and short-depth servers powered by the new AMD EPYC 8004 Series processors. These servers are designed for intelligent edge and telco applications.

The new 4th gen AMD EPYC 8004 family extends the ‘Zen4c’ core architecture into lower-count processors with TDP ranges as low as 80W. The processors are designed especially for edge-server deployments and form factors.

Supermicro has a new class of storage servers that support E3.S Gen 5 NVMe drives. They offer up to 256TB of high-throughput, low-latency storage in a 1U enclosure, and up to half a petabyte in a 2U.

Liquid cooling can offer big advantages over air cooling. According to a new Supermicro solution guide, these benefits include up to 92% lower electricity costs for a server’s cooling infrastructure, and up to 51% lower electricity costs for an entire data center.

The new 3Rs of green computing are reduce, reuse and recycle. 

Supermicro’s H13 Petascale Storage Systems is a compact 1U rackmount system powered by the AMD EPYC 97X4 processor (formerly codenamed Bergamo) with up to 128 cores.
