Supermicro Founder and CEO Charles Liang will be joined by NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang and other industry luminaries to outline developments to accelerate cloud, AI, edge and storage workloads, investments to drive rack-scale manufacturing and innovations to reduce the environmental impact of today’s data centers with green computing technologies
SAN JOSE, California and TAIPEI, Taiwan, May 29, 2023/PRNewswire/ — Super Micro Computer, Inc. (Nasdaq: SMCI), a total provider of IT solutions for cloud, AI/ML, storage and 5G/ Edge continues to offer IT solutions to lessen the environmental impact of today’s modern data center. Supermicro is advancing technology in critical areas such as product design, green computing, manufacturing, and rack-scale integration that enable organizations to be productive and reduce energy consumption quickly.
Charles Liang, President and CEO of Supermicro, explained: “Our green computing approach enables Supermicro to design and build next-generation servers and storage systems with the latest CPU and GPU technologies from NVIDIA, Intel and AMD that reduce power consumption. Our innovative rack-scale liquid cooling option enables organizations to reduce data center energy costs by up to 40% Our popular GPU servers with the NVIDIA HGX H100 8-GPU Server continue to be in demand for AI workloads.We are expanding our solution offerings with innovative servers using the NVIDIA Grace CPU superchip, and are collaborating closely with NVIDIA to bring energy-efficient servers to market for AI and other industries.Around the world, our ability to manufacturing is 4,000 racks today and more than 5,000 by the end of this year.
Supermicro has the most comprehensive portfolio to support workloads in AI and other verticals. These innovative systems include single and two-socket rackmount systems based on 4th generation Intel Xeon Scalable processors and 4th generation AMD EPYC processors in 1U, 2U, 4U, 5U and 8U form factors supporting 1 to 10 GPUs , as well as density-optimized SuperBlade® systems supporting 20 NVIDIA H100 GPUs in an 8U enclosure, and SuperEdge systems designed for IoT and edge environments. The recently announced E3.S Petascale storage systems deliver significant performance, capacity, productivity, and resilience when training with very large AI data sets, while maintaining excellent power efficiency.
A new family of products based on the NVIDIA Grace CPU superchip will be available soon. Each of these new servers will contain 144 dual CPU cores linked by a 900 GB/s connection, enabling highly responsive AI applications and those requiring extremely low latency responses to run. With the CPU running at 500W TDP, this system will reduce power consumption for cloud-native workloads and the next generation of AI applications.

With the proliferation of AI applications, the demand for high-end servers built for AI is increasing, bringing new challenges for system vendors to incorporate the latest CPUs and GPUs. Supermicro’s most advanced GPU server incorporates dual CPUs and up to eight NVIDIA HGX H100 GPUs, which are available with liquid cooling option, reducing OPEX.
As noted by Ian Buck, vice president of hyperscale and HPC at NVIDIA: “NVIDIA works closely with Supermicro to rapidly introduce innovations in new server designs to meet the needs of the most demanding customers. With Supermicro servers equipped with super CPU chips With shipping soon and the H100 GPUs gaining fans around the world, we are working together to bring AI to a wide range of markets and applications.”
To lower customers’ total cost of ownership, Supermicro is supporting the new NVIDIA MGX reference architecture, which will deliver more than 100 server configurations for a wide range of AI, HPC, and Omniverse applications. This modular reference architecture includes CPU, GPU, and DPU and is designed for multiple generations of processors.
Supermicro will also incorporate the latest networking technology from NVIDIA, the NVIDIA Spectrum™-X networking platform, into a wide range of solutions. This platform is the first specifically designed to improve the performance and efficiency of Ethernet-based AI clouds. Spectrum-X is built on networking innovations driven by the tight coupling of the NVIDIA Spectrum-4 Ethernet switch plus the NVIDIA BlueField®-3 data processing unit (DPU). This revolutionary technology increases overall AI performance and energy efficiency by 1.7 times, as well as delivering consistent and predictable performance in multi-tenant environments.
Green computing is essential for today’s data centers, which consume between 1 and 1.5% of global electricity demand. Supermicro’s complete rack-scale liquid cooling solution significantly reduces the need for traditional cooling methods. With redundant, hot-swappable power supplies and pumps, entire racks of high-performance HPC and AI-optimized servers can be efficiently cooled even during a power supply or pump failure. This solution also uses custom-designed CPU and GPU cold plates, which are more efficient at removing heat than traditional designs. Up to $10 billion in energy costs can be saved if data centers reduce their PUE closer to 1.0 with Supermicro technology and not have to build 30 fossil fuel power plants.
