Intel Innovation 2023 Supermicro, Inc , a Total IT Solution Provider for Cloud, AI/ML, Storage and 5G/Edge, announces future support for 5th Generation Intel Xeon processors coming soon. In addition, Supermicro will soon offer qualified customers early shipping and free early access remote testing of the new systems through the JumpStart program . The Supermicro 8x GPU-optimized servers, the SuperBlade servers and the Hyper Series will be ready soon for customers to test their workloads on the new CPU.
“Supermicro’s offering of generative, high-performance AI systems, including recently launched GPUs, continues to lead the industry in AI offerings with its broad range of X13 servers designed for a variety of workloads from the edge to the cloud” , said Charles Liang , president and CEO of Supermicro . “Our support for the upcoming 5th Generation Intel 5G Edge and Enterprise Workloads These new features will help customers accelerate their operations and maximize their competitive advantage.”
Watch the Supermicro TechTALK about how Supermicro is partnering with Intel to launch new X13 servers with 5th generation Intel Xeon processors.
Supermicro Using PCIe 5.0, the latest peripherals with CXL 1.1, NVMe storage and the latest GPU accelerators ensure faster application processing times. Customers will soon be able to use the new 5th Generation Intel Xeon processors in the proven Supermicro X13 servers, without the need for a software redesign or architectural change. This reduces the lead times associated with completely new platforms and CPU designs, resulting in higher productivity.
“The 5th Generation Intel Xeon processors build on the success of the “The strong relationship we have with Supermicro will help ensure that customers will soon be able to realize the benefits of 5th Generation Intel Xeon processors on platforms already proven in the data center.”
