Supermicro to Expand its Total IT Solutions
Using Intel Data Center GPU codenamed Arctic Sound-M (ATS-M), to
Deliver Outstanding Performance for the Modern Enterprise -– Over
540 1080p @60Hz Transcoded Streams Per System*
SAN JOSE, Calif., July 28, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Super Micro
Computer, Inc. (Nasdaq: SMCI), a global leader in enterprise
computing, storage, networking, and green computing technology, is
announcing future Total IT Solutions for availability with Android
Cloud Gaming and Media Processing & Delivery. These new
solutions will incorporate the Intel Data Center GPU, codenamed
Arctic Sound-M, and will be supported on several Supermicro
servers.
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® 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® 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® 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.
