), and NVIDIA A16 GPUs. 

"Our collaboration with NVIDIA enables us to design a complete portfolio of GPU 
systems and platforms empowering maximum customer choice. Customers can exactly 
match their workload requirements to system architecture to achieve superior 
scale, performance, efficiency, and cost," said Charles Liang, president and 
CEO, Supermicro. "Supermicro offers multi-GPU optimized systems that deliver 
advanced solutions to AI, Deep Learning, HPC, and video streaming applications. 
Leveraging our building block solutions and our time-to-market advantage, we 
continue developing and releasing application-optimized solutions. Our flexible 
2U 2-node GPU system with PCIe 4.0 is tuned for cloud gaming and social media 
and leads the industry with support for up to three double-width or six 
single-width GPUs per node."

The breadth of Supermicro's systems includes the flagship Intel-based 
SYS-420GP-TNAR or the AMD-based AS -4124GO-NART(+), featuring the  4U Server 
powered by the NVIDIA HGX A100 8-GPU board, with the option of either 40GB 
(HBM2) or 80GB (HBM2e) of memory on each GPU. These systems are currently 
shipping worldwide.

"From AI-powered drug discovery to designing advanced, efficient factories, 
accelerated computing is essential to powering the most innovative work in the 
world today," said Justin Boitano, vice president and general manager, 
Enterprise and Edge Computing at NVIDIA. "Supermicro's NVIDIA-Certified Systems 
provide customers with a broad range of servers built to deliver top 
performance for AI, graphics and simulation workloads across the data center, 
to the cloud, to the edge."

The new systems can run various advanced application workloads, including the 
NVIDIA AI Enterprise software suite, which is optimized and certified by NVIDIA 
to run on VMware vSphere, and  NVIDIA Omniverse Enterprise an end-to-end 
real-time simulation and collaboration platform bringing transformative 3D 
workflows to organizations of every scale. Supermicro is showcasing these 
performance-leading solutions at the NVIDIA GTC21 conference this week. 

From the Edge to the Cloud, AI, ML, HPC, and 3D visualization are becoming 
critical technologies necessary for all organizations and industries to 
embrace. Developing systems and delivering platforms that incorporate the 
latest hardware and software allows a range of enterprises to quickly get 
productive and implement their latest solutions, with a range of form factors. 
Supermicro is a leading participant in the NVIDIA-Certified Systems program, 
which validates the hardware and software configurations needed for maximum 
productivity. These systems can handle massive amounts of data with advanced 
networking, allowing for complex models to be developed and incorporate new AI 
and other advanced algorithms. 3D visualization enables better comprehension of 
physical reality, while graphics virtualization enables IT administrators to 
consolidate systems infrastructure and centralize and secure their data. 
NVIDIA-Certified Systems allow for easy and fast deployment in the data center. 
Supermicro also leads the industry with NEBS Level 3-certified GPU servers for 
5G and telco customers.

Consistently first-to-market, Supermicro supports the latest hardware and 
software solutions from NVIDIA. The range of supported GPUs includes the NVIDIA 
A100 80GB, A100 40GB, A40, RTX A6000, A30, A10, and A16 GPUs, aiming at AI 
Inference and mainstream computing, mainstream graphics and video, and virtual 
desktops, all with AI technologies. All NVIDIA products are available across a 
wide range of Supermicro systems that use 3rd Gen Intel Xeon Scalable
