Supermicro solutions that will contain the Intel Data Center GPUs codenamed 
Arctic Sound-M, include the 4U 10x GPU server for transcoding and media 
delivery, the Supermicro BigTwin(R) system with up to eight Intel Data Center 
GPUs, codenamed Arctic Sound-M in 2U for media processing applications, the 
Supermicro CloudDC server for edge AI inferencing, and the Supermicro 2U 2-Node 
server with three Intel Data Center GPUs, codenamed Arctic Sound-M per node, 
optimized for cloud gaming. Additional systems will be made available later 
this year.

"Supermicro will extend our media processing solutions by incorporating the 
Intel Data Center GPU," said Charles Liang, President, and CEO, Supermicro. 
"The new solutions will increase video stream rates and enable lower latency 
Android cloud gaming. As a result, Android cloud gaming performance and 
interactivity will increase dramatically with the Supermicro BigTwin systems, 
while media delivery and transcoding will show dramatic improvements with the 
new Intel Data Center GPUs. The solutions will expand our market-leading 
accelerated computing offerings, including everything from Media Processing & 
Delivery to Collaboration, and HPC."

Systems Tuned to Workloads

Transcoding is a critical technology for today's media-centric world. The 
Supermicro 4U 10x GPU server is ideal for various industries, where multiple 
formats must be delivered to a wide range of video devices.

Cloud-based gaming requires significant computing power and the ability to 
deliver interactive frame rates to gaming enthusiasts. With the Supermicro 2U 
2-Node server featuring the Intel Data Center GPU, codenamed Arctic Sound-M, 
android cloud-based gaming takes on a new level of performance.

Media Processing for Content Delivery Networks (CDN) requires fast and 
efficient delivery of all media types. The Supermicro BigTwin system with the 
Intel Data Center GPU will deliver multiple video content streams to consumers.

"The Intel Data Center GPU is a highly-flexible solution to accelerate 
workloads that have become an integral part of daily life. The combination of 
advanced media capabilities, graphics rendering pipeline, and an open software 
stack deliver the high-density, low-latency, and exquisite visual quality 
required for next-generation video conferencing, media delivery, and cloud 
gaming deployments. Supermicro's new product offerings with the Intel Data 
Center GPU pave the way for rapid deployments in the market," said Jeff 
McVeigh, vice president and general manager of the Super Compute Group at Intel.

The Supermicro Building Block Solutions(R) approach allows Supermicro to bring 
a range of products to market faster so that new technologies can be quickly 
incorporated into its server lines. For example, Android Cloud gaming with the 
new Intel Data Center GPU codenamed Arctic Sound-M will support more 
interactive users than previously possible. The streaming performance will see 
a dramatic increase with the industry's first hardware AV1 encoder and 
open-source media software stack, compared with software-only video transcoding.

The Intel Data Center GPU codenamed Arctic Sound-M is designed to be an open, 
and flexible solution for cloud gaming and media processing & delivery. This 
GPU will be supported by a full solution stack offering developers an 
open-source software stack for streaming media and Android cloud gaming, with 
broad support for the latest codecs, graphics APIs, and frameworks. With 
Intel(R) oneAPI for unified programming across architectures, the Intel Data 
Center GPU codenamed Arctic Sound-M will provide an open alternative to 
proprietary language lock-in that will enable the full performance of the 
hardware with a complete, proven set of tools that complement existing 
languages and parallel models. This will allow developers the ability to design 
open, portable codes that will take maximum advantage of various combinations 
of CPUs and GPUs.
