SAN JOSE, Calif., April 7, 2021 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --

  -- 2X more All-Flash NVMe Bandwidth, Up to 12TB* Memory, Open OCP 3.0 I/O,
     Maximum GPU Acceleration, Robust 5G, as well as Power Savings, and the
     Highest Available Compute Density

Super Micro Computer, Inc. (Nasdaq: SMCI), a global leader in enterprise 
computing, storage, networking, and green computing technology, introduces the 
industry's most complete server lineup incorporating the latest 3rd Gen Intel 
Xeon Scalable processors delivering leading performance and reduced TCO and 
Total Cost to the Environment (TCE). The new X12 systems are already deployed 
in volume at innovative organizations such as Osaka University and DISH.

"Supermicro is delivering the most performant energy saving systems, pushing 
the envelope with new systems incorporating the latest Intel processors," said 
Charles Liang, president and CEO, Supermicro. "Our new Hyper product line is 
designed for maximum performance and can house 32 DIMMs of high-speed memory, 
four high-performance GPUs, and up to 400 Gbit LAN, which supports our 
customers' most demanding requirements. We work closely with technology 
partners across the industry to deliver a broad range of servers and storage 
systems optimized for many workloads and delivering the best solutions, from 
the highest performance systems, like Hyper or our Delta GPU deep learning 
optimized platform, to cost-efficient TCO optimized platforms, such as our new 
2U 2-Node video streaming platform. We are proud to design and manufacture 
these systems at our Silicon Valley headquarters and our rapidly expanding 
Taiwan facilities."  

Most Comprehensive Range of Systems with Innovative Technology

The entire line of over 100 application-optimized systems, including Hyper, 
SuperBlade(R), the Twin Product Family (BigTwin (R), TwinPro (R), and FatTwin 
(R)), Ultra, CloudDC, GPU, Telco/5Gand Edge servers, feature the 3rd Gen Intel 
Xeon Scalable processors. The top-of-the-line Intel Xeon Platinum 8380 
processor with 40 cores running at 2.3 GHz in the Ultra and Hyper platforms 
delivers leadership performance.  The network-optimized CPUs are leveraged in a 
comprehensive portfolio of 5G and embedded edge systems. The Big Twin 
multi-node and SuperBlade systems with Intel Speed Select CPUs deliver 
flexibility and efficiency for Cloud Service Providers. Also, the 
single-processor WIO and storage systems bring compelling cost savings for 
general purpose and storage applications. The portfolio includes water cooled 
configurations for high power CPUs in high-density systems in HPC installations 
with a direct liquid cooling option to remove the limitations of traditional 
air-cooling for heat dissipation and thus lowers overall data center operating 
costs.

"Our 3rd Gen Intel Xeon Scalable processors have been designed to deliver true 
flexibility. They are the only data center processors with built in AI 
acceleration and are built to serve all workloads from edge to cloud. Our 
partnership with Supermicro enables innovative IT providers from every industry 
to deliver quality services across all of these workloads and adapt quickly 
while providing consistent performance," stated Lisa Spelman, Corporate Vice 
President and General Manager of the Xeon and Memory Group. "We continue to 
work closely with Supermicro to deliver more value to customers by creating and 
enabling solutions that solve their greatest challenges."

With Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning growth, Supermicro has 
introduced a portfolio of new GPU systems based on 3rd Gen Intel Xeon Scalable 
processors. These systems leverage the 2X increase in PCI-E 4.0 I/O to deliver 
improved workload performance. The portfolio includes highly integrated 4U 8 
GPU systems for large training workloads, and 2U 2-Node single processor GPU 
systems with improved power efficiency for cloud gaming and streaming. The 
CloudDC platform, with a balanced architecture with dedicated I/O and all-flash 
storage for each CPU, enables the system to deliver lower latency, higher 
performance, and allows remote direct memory access (RDMA) in large-scale cloud 
environments.

The Supermicro X12 product lineup also includes 5G edge-optimized systems, 
including the Ultra-E, Hyper-E, and the 2U UP 210P Edge server. The 
high-performance Hyper-E delivers unparalleled processing power and expansion 
capability while meeting demanding telco requirements, such as NEBS Level 3 
certification, short system depth, and front-accessible I/O. The Hyper-E is 
ideal for 5G networks and edge applications that require local processing and 
need to include AI algorithms in a small form factor within low power and 
thermally restrictive environments. At the edge, Supermicro, with its broad 
lineup of X12 systems, can easily support a range of data collection, 
computing, and AI requirements.

"As we build the nation's first cloud-based 5G network, Intel and Supermicro 
will help maximize the power of next-generation connectivity from the core to 
the edge," said Sidd Chenumolu, DISH Vice President of Technology Development. 
"DISH has worked with both companies for a long time, and we are pleased to 
continue this great partnership."

Supermicro has already deployed systems with leading high-performance computing 
research institutions, including Cybermedia Center Osaka University that is 
implementing the 3rd Gen Intel Xeon Scalable processor-based systems for the 
supercomputing system named SQUID (Supercomputer for Quest to Unsolved 
Interdisciplinary Data science).

"Researchers and scientists in Osaka University are now working on their own 
research projects in the hope of bringing open innovation to our society. We 
are excited to leverage the latest generation of Intel and Supermicro's 
solutions for advanced scientific research projects necessitating HPC 
(High-Performance Computing) and HPDA (High-Performance Data Analysis)." - Dr. 
Susumu Date Cybermedia Center, Osaka University.

Additionally, the X12 product line allows customers to extract more value from 
larger datasets to take advantage of the latest Intel Optane persistent memory 
200 series. The new X12 systems can access data faster, with twice the I/O 
performance utilizing PCI-E 4.0. With support for up to eight memory channels 
per socket running at 3200Mhz, more memory can be directly addressed at higher 
speeds, increasing application performance by up to 46% on popular benchmarks.  

The new X12 systems have improved security and management capabilities. With 
full memory encryption, the X12 portfolio is more secure than any previous 
generation of Supermicro systems, giving enterprises the confidence to protect 
valuable customer data and deliver results securely. Supermicro's SuperServers 
support Intel's Software Guard Extensions, which provide enclaves of protected 
memory to run applications and their data.

The Supermicro X12 servers also have a new intelligent management system with 
enhanced security with hardware Root of Trust (ROT), Redfish 1.8 support, and 
an improved Supermicro Intelligent Management web interface. Supermicro's cloud 
infrastructure management software, SuperCloud Composer, now features support 
for X12 platforms, bringing speed, agility, and simplicity to IT administration 
by integrating data center tasks into a single intelligent management solution. 
The SuperCloud Composer also monitors and manages the broad portfolio of 
multi-generation Supermicro servers and third-party systems through its data 
center lifecycle management feature.

Several architected solutions using the 3rd Gen Intel Xeon Scalable processors 
are coming soon and will be available from Supermicro, including Oracle Linux 
and SAP-certified solutions. Many different workloads will benefit from these 
new processors, including HPC, AI, Enterprise, and Cloud workloads.
