Supermicro has optimized its X11 server and storage systems to fully leverage 
the performance advantages of the latest 2nd Gen Intel Xeon Scalable processors 
(formerly codenamed Cascade Lake-R or CLX-R) that extend the unique 
capabilities including built-in AI acceleration with Intel Deep Learning Boost 
and support for Intel Optane persistent memory. Supermicro's advanced thermal 
management and power supply designs allow these new processors to achieve their 
full potential in the most comprehensive lineup of server systems on the market.

"At Supermicro, we always offer customers access to the very latest 
technologies as early as possible to help them drive leading performance and 
improved TCO with better server performance at the same price level," said 
Charles Liang, President and CEO of Supermicro. "With the industry's strongest 
and greenest product line, our designs take full advantage of the latest 2nd 
Generation Intel Xeon Scalable processors to provide up to 36% better 
performance at the same price level or up to 61% lower processor cost for 
equivalent performance versus current offerings*."

The extensive portfolio of systems includes Supermicro's Ultra, BigTwin(TM), 
SuperBlade(R), GPU Systems, Workstations, and others with multiple new 
processor offerings that deliver increased frequency, core count, and/or cache 
configurations to boost customers' performance and value options at many of 
their most popular price points. When equipped with these new processor models, 
existing Supermicro X11 platforms can deliver higher performance at the same or 
lower price points than existing models. 

"Systems with the latest 2nd Gen Intel Xeon Scalable processors provide the 
performance, capabilities, and innovations that accelerate application 
performance and AI-infused insights across compute, storage and network 
workloads," said Lisa Spelman, corporate vice president and general manager of 
the Xeon and Memory Group at Intel. "Supermicro's platforms will help customers 
take full advantage of the higher performance and value of our latest Xeon 
Scalable processors."
