Supermicro has optimized its entire X11 portfolio to fully leverage the 
performance advantages of the new 2nd Gen Intel Xeon Scalable processors 
(formerly codenamed Cascade Lake) and accompanying new innovations including 
Intel(R) Optane(TM) DC persistent memory to increase memory capacity and 
affordability and Intel(R) Deep Learning Boost to enable more efficient AI 
(artificial intelligence) acceleration. With these new Supermicro 
Resource-Saving servers, customers can expect better data center performance 
(35% faster), better TCO (up to 50% reduction) and less impact on the 
environment.

"At Supermicro, we are strongly committed to providing customers the newest 
technologies first to help drive leading performance and improved TCO with 
higher server performance at the same price level," said Charles Liang, 
President and CEO of Supermicro. "With the industry's strongest and broadest 
product line, our designs deliver world record performance and take full 
advantage of 2nd Gen Intel Xeon Scalable Processors' new features such as 10% 
faster DIMMs, 50% more memory capacity, faster CPU frequency up to 3.8GHz, and 
Intel Optane DC persistent memory. Furthermore, our all-flash NVMe(TM) 1U 
storage servers support all of the next-generation flash technologies including 
NF1 and EDSFF form factor SSDs to deliver the highest storage bandwidth, best 
IOPS performance, NVMe over Fabrics support and ease of maintenance. We already 
have over a dozen high-profile customers reporting exciting performance gains 
using these new 2nd Gen Intel Xeon Scalable processors on a variety of 
applications."

"Systems with 2nd Gen Intel Xeon Scalable processors and Intel Optane DC 
persistent memory at their foundation provide the performance, capabilities, 
and innovations that accelerate application performance across compute, storage 
and network workloads," said Lisa Spelman, vice president and general manager 
of Intel Xeon Processors and Data Center Marketing at Intel. "Supermicro is 
always quick-to-market with our latest technology, and a leader in delivering 
ready-to-adopt, workload-optimized Intel(R) Select Solutions, both of which 
help customers achieve faster time to value."

Supermicro's broad portfolio of over 100 workload optimized systems supporting 
the new processor family includes:

Industry Leading Resource-Saving Systems
Supermicro's unique Resource-Saving architecture disaggregates the CPU and 
memory along with other subsystems, so each resource can be refreshed 
independently allowing data centers to reduce refresh cycle costs and their 
impact to the environment by reducing e-waste. Further savings are achieved 
through shared power and cooling as well as free-air cooling solutions. When 
viewed over a three to five year refresh cycle, Supermicro Resource-Saving 
servers deliver, on average, higher-performing and more-efficient servers at 
lower costs than traditional rip-and-replace models by allowing data centers to 
independently optimize adoption of new and improved technologies.  The 
following Supermicro product lines support Resource-Saving features to not only 
deliver exceptional performance but also superior value: BigTwin(TM) with the 
highest performance and density in a 2U four-node design with each node 
supporting 24 DIMMs, six hot-swap NVMe drives and flexible networking 
capability; 4U FatTwin(TM) in a variety of I/O, memory and storage combinations 
for most optimized cloud, HPC and enterprise applications; and SuperBlade(R) 
systems with two-socket and four-socket Intel Xeon Scalable processor-based 
blade servers supporting top-bin 205-watt processors, NVMe, 100G EDR InfiniBand 
switch, or 25G/10G Ethernet switches, redundant AC/DC power supplies, and 
Battery Backup (BBP), making them ideal for enterprise, cloud, and HPC 
applications. To learn more about Supermicro's Resource-Saving innovations and 
commitment to green computing, please visit www.supermicro.com/WeKeepITGreen.

No-Compromise 1U & 2U Enterprise Systems
Supermicro 1U and 2U Ultra SuperServers offer best-in-class enterprise level 
performance while delivering unparalleled value, flexibility, scalability and 
serviceability. Depending on configuration, systems feature dual 2nd Gen Intel 
Xeon Scalable processors (up to 28 cores, 205W TDP per CPU), 24 DIMMs of 
DDR4-2933MHz Reg. ECC memory, Intel Optane DC persistent memory, up to 24 
hot-swap NVMe (up to 16 million IOPS) or SAS3/SATA3 drives, up to eight PCI-E 
3.0 expansion slots, dual or quad-port 1G, 10GBase-T, 10G SFP+, or 25G SFP28 
Ethernet, and redundant 750W/1000W/1600W Titanium Level (96%+) digital power 
supplies.

1U Petascale All-Flash NVMe Storage Systems
Supermicro's new Petascale line of all-flash NVMe 1U storage servers support 
all of the next-generation flash technologies with up to 52GB/second data 
bandwidth out of the box, best IOPS performance, NVMe over Fabrics support and 
ease of maintenance.  With these 1U systems supporting up to 1PB of fast 
low-latency storage with 32 front hot-swap U.2, EDSFF and NF1 form factor SSDs, 
Supermicro offers unprecedented flexibility and choice for high-capacity 
networked storage applications that require the best latency performance.
