The upcoming processors will also feature built-in Intel Accelerator Engines with new support for FP16 on Intel Advanced Matrix Extensions. New Supermicro X14 systems will support up to 576 cores per node, as well as PCIe 5.0, CXL 2.0 for all device types, NVMe storage, and the latest GPU accelerators, significantly reducing application execution times for users running AI workloads.

Customers can leverage the Intel Xeon 6 processors with Efficient-cores and Performance-cores in a wide range of Supermicro X14 servers, with minimal software redesign and new server architectural advantages included.

"Intel is once again on the leading edge of innovation in the industry and is excited to bring increased choice and flexibility through Intel Xeon 6 CPUs with E-cores and P-cores," said Ryan Tabrah, VP of the Intel Xeon 6 product line at Intel. "These CPUs offer two uniquely optimized microarchitectures in a common platform design with a shared software stack, helping customers get the best value across their diverse workload needs, regardless of the industry or deployment model on-prem, in the cloud, or at the edge. Our strong partnership with Supermicro will help deliver the benefits of this new generation of processors to customers."

Supermicro will offer pre-launch availability of new X14 systems powered by the Intel® Xeon® 6 processor to qualified customers through its remote JumpStart and Early Ship programs to perform workload validation.

The Supermicro portfolio of X14 systems is performance optimized and energy efficient, incorporates improved manageability and security, supports open industry standards, and is rack-scale optimized.

Liquid cooling and rack-scale integration to build application-optimized solutions of any size. Supermicro offers complete design, building, validation, and delivery services from a single rack to an entire data center cluster. In addition, a complete liquid cooling solution is available directly from Supermicro, which reduces overall data center electricity usage.

Systems are workload-optimized for maximum performance and efficiency, and the Supermicro X14 platform supports the latest generation of GPUs, DPUs, DDR5 memory, PCIe 5.0, Gen5 NVMe storage, and CXL 2.0.

Energy-efficient to reduce data center OPEX with support for free-air or direct-to-chip liquid cooling. Supermicro X14 systems are designed to operate in high-temperature data center environments up to 40° C (104° F), reducing cooling costs. Systems also support multiple airflow cooling zones for maximum CPU and GPU performance and are powered by in-house designed Titanium level power supplies for improved operational efficiency.

Improved security includes NIST 800-193 compliant hardware platform Root of Trust (RoT) on every server node and second-generation Silicon RoT designed to incorporate industry standards. Supermicro's open industry standards-based attestation/supply chain assurance from motherboard manufacturing through server production to customers, cryptographically attesting the integrity of each component and firmware using signed certificates and secure device identity. Run-time BMC protections continuously monitor threats and provide notification services, and hardware TPMs provide additional capabilities and measurements needed to run systems in secure environments.

Improved manageability includes remote management built on industry standards and secure Redfish APIs, a comprehensive software suite that enables rack management at scale for IT infrastructure solutions deployed across the core to the edge and integrated and verified solutions with 3rd party standard hardware and firmware enable the best out-of-the-box experience for IT administrators.
