Supermicro has offerings both at the motherboard and system level. The system incorporates the motherboard so we will start with the M12SWA-TF and move to the system that is built around it.

The Supermicro 1023US-TR4 is a 1U server designed for organizations looking for a high-end solution in environments that can benefit from dense compute power like virtualization and cloud computing. The 1024US-TR4 comes equipped with an H11DSU-iN motherboard, which features dual-socket support for AMD EPYC series processors and up to 8TB Registered ECC DDR4 3200MHz SDRAM via its 32 DIMM slots.

5G has quickly become a technology that will affect everyone everywhere. While networks are still in the early deployment phase, the worldwide rollout has already begun. Almost every day we see a new announcement on another 5G deployment. GSMA Intelligence has reported that almost 110 operators in almost 50 countries will have launched new 5G networks by the end of 2020.

With data center operators’ requirements for faster access to massive amounts of data than ever before, the choice of storage technologies and associated infrastructure has become a critical consideration when IT departments design and implement their next-generation data centers. As storage technologies continue to increase in both performance and capacity, some decisions need to be made to deliver fast results to enterprise customers.

High Performance Computing (HPC) can enable humans to understand the world around us, from atomic behaviour to how the universe is expanding. While HPC used to be associated with a “supercomputer,” today’s HPC environments are created using hundreds to thousands of individual servers, connected by a high speed and low latency networking fabric. To take advantage of thousands of separate computing elements or “cores” simultaneously, applications need to be designed and implemented to work in parallel, sharing intermediate results as required.

The Supermicro AOC-S100GC-i2C is perhaps one of the most interesting NICs that is on the market today. This is a dual 100GbE solution designed for Supermicro servers. What is somewhat different is that this NIC uses the Intel 800 series or Columbiaville networking first announced in 2019. Intel went into production in the summer of 2020 so this is one of the first NICs out there with Intel’s new “foundational” NIC stack. There are some major benefits and changes to Intel’s networking offering here.
