Super Micro Computer, Inc. (SMCI), a global leader in enterprise computing,

storage, networking solutions, and green computing technology, today announced

that its industry-leading portfolio of servers optimized for 2nd Gen AMD

EPYC(TM) Processors has achieved 27 world record performance benchmarks and

Besides the new H12 SuperBlade(R) and single and dual-socket multi-node Twin A+

Servers, Supermicro is also introducing its next-generation WIO line of A+

Servers as well as a 4U server supporting eight double-width GPUs. With PCI-E

4.0 x16 support, these A+ Servers can deliver 200G connectivity and feature a

large memory footprint of up to four terabytes (4TB) per socket running fast

DDR4 memory up 3200MHz to deliver record-breaking performance.

"Supermicro 2nd Gen AMD EPYC processor based A+ Servers have achieved 27

world-record performance benchmarks and counting," said Vik Malyala, senior

vice president, field application engineering and business development,

Supermicro. "For instance, our A+ Servers achieved world-record performance for

the TPCx-IoT benchmark with the H12 TwinPro(TM) that established the highest

performance and lowest dollar per performance over the previous record holders

with the new high-frequency AMD EPYC 7Fx2 processors."

"We are extremely excited about the new lineup of 2nd Gen AMD EPYC-based

servers from Supermicro, and in particular the industry's first AMD

EPYC-powered blade server," said Dan McNamara, senior vice president and

general manager, server business unit, AMD. "By leveraging the significant

performance boost of our new high-frequency AMD EPYC 7Fx2 processors,

Supermicro can help drive better results in critical enterprise workloads for

their broad customer base."

The new A+ SuperBlade features a performance and density optimized

resource-saving architecture with up to 20 hot-pluggable single-socket nodes in

8U and integrated networking fabric up to 100G EDR InfiniBand with 200G HDR

coming soon. With shared cooling, power and networking infrastructure, this

high performance, density optimized and energy-efficient A+ SuperBlade can

significantly reduce initial capital and operational expenses for many

organizations.

Supermicro A+ WIO systems offer a wide range of I/O options enabling customers

to optimize storage and networking alternatives to accelerate performance,

increase efficiency, and find the perfect fit for their applications. These

single-socket 1U servers support three PCI 4.0 x16 slots, 8 or 16 DIMM

versions, and redundant high-efficiency Platinum Level power supplies. Both WIO

and Ultra A+ systems can support 10-24 NVMe drives per single or dual-processor

system without requiring a PCI-E switch to provide excellent storage

performance.

For maximum acceleration of AI, Deep Learning, and HPC workloads, Supermicro's

new A+ GPU system supports up to eight full-height double-wide (or single-wide)

GPUs via direct-attach PCI-E 4.0 x16 CPU-to-GPU lanes without any PCI-E switch

for the lowest latency and highest bandwidth. The system also supports up to

three additional high-performance PCI-E 4.0 expansion slots for a variety of

uses, including high-performance networking connectivity up to 100G. An

additional AIOM slot supports a Supermicro AIOM card or an OCP 3.0 mezzanine

card.

Supermicro offers an industry-leading portfolio of EPYC based systems and

Server Building Block Solutions(R) including ATX and E-ATX motherboards. From

single-socket mainstream and WIO servers to high-end Ultra server systems and

multi-node systems, including BigTwin(TM) and TwinPro(TM), Supermicro enables

customers to build application-optimized solutions with a multitude of

configuration possibilities.
