Supermicro Showcases Largest Portfolio of HPC-Optimized Multi-Node Systems at SuperComputing 2024

All-new FlexTwin™ and New Generation SuperBlade® Maximize Compute Density with up to 36,864 Cores per Rack, featuring Direct to Chip Liquid Cooling and Upgraded Technologies to Maximize HPC Performance

SAN JOSE, Calif. and ATLANTA, Nov. 19, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Supercomputing Conference -- Supermicro, Inc. (NASDAQ: SMCI) a Total IT Solution Provider for AI/ML, HPC, Cloud, Storage, and 5G/Edge, is showcasing its latest high-compute-density multi-node solutions which are optimized for high intensity HPC workloads. These systems include the innovative liquid-cooled FlexTwin 2U 4-node purpose-built HPC architecture and the industry leading SuperBlade with up to 20 nodes in a 6U or an 8U chassis with a range of storage drive options. Each SuperBlade can accommodate an NVIDIA GPU per node, accelerating specific applications. Supermicro multi-nodes feature shared resources to enhance efficiency and reduce raw materials usage, with significant density improvements compared to standard rackmount systems.

The Supermicro multi-node systems are optimized for HPC workloads, including financial services, manufacturing, climate & weather modeling, oil & gas, and scientific research. Each distinct product family is designed with an optimized combination of density, performance, and efficiency.

FlexTwin – All-new dual-processor platform designed for maximum performance density in a liquid-cooled multi-node architecture, featuring support for the latest CPUs, memory, storage, and cooling technologies. Purpose-built to support demanding HPC workloads at scale, including financial services, manufacturing, scientific research, and complex modeling, FlexTwin is optimized for performance per dollar. Using a 48U rack as an example, FlexTwin can support up to 96 dual processor nodes and 36,864 cores within this rack size.

SuperBlade - High-performance, density-optimized, and energy-efficient architecture with up to 100 servers and 200 GPUs per rack. Direct liquid cooling (DLC) can support servers with the highest power CPUs to achieve the lowest PUE with the best TCO. SuperBlade utilizes shared, redundant components, including power supplies, cooling fans, chassis management modules (CMMs), ethernet and InfiniBand switches, and pass-thru modules to deliver the most cost-effective, green computing solutions. Depending on customer requirements, the flexible SuperBlade is available in either a 6U or 8U form factor.

BigTwin – The versatile Supermicro BigTwin is available as a 2U-4Node or 2U-2Node system. The Supermicro BigTwin shares power supplies and fans, which reduce power consumption. The BigTwin is available with the Intel Xeon 6 processor.

With its Complete Rack Integration Services, Supermicro works closely with customers to architect and design rack and entire data center solutions for HPC workloads. After the design is validated with customer close involvement, Supermicro offers on-site deployment services, reducing the time-to-deployment. Supermicro has a global manufacturing footprint with production facilities in the USA, Europe, and Asia. It can produce a total of 5,000 racks per month, including 2,000 liquid-cooled racks, with lead times of weeks, not months.

Supermicro\'s multi-node systems feature the latest technologies to enhance HPC performance.

New-generation processors – Dual Intel® Xeon 6900 series processors with P-cores up to 500W and 128 cores or AMD EPYC™ 9005 series processors up to 500W and 192 cores are available in a range of Supermicro HPC servers. In addition, dual Intel Xeon 6700 processors with E-cores up to 330W and 144 cores are also available in select Supermicro servers.

Higher bandwidth memory - Support for DDR5 up to 6400MT/s improves throughput for memory-intensive and in-memory computing HPC applications. Systems featuring Intel Xeon 6 processors also support the new MRDIMMs with a bandwidth of up to 8800MT/s.

Direct Liquid Cooling – Supermicro\'s complete liquid cooling solutions include CPU and DIMM module cold plates, cooling distribution manifolds (CDM), in-rack and in-row cooling distribution units (CDM), connectors, tubing, and cooling towers, efficiently cooling high-powered CPUs and reducing instances of thermal throttling. Supermicro has deployed more than 2,000 fully integrated liquid-cooled racks in the past three months.

EDSFF drives – New support for EDSFF E1.S and E3.S drives improves storage density and enhances throughput, providing better storage performance for data-intensive HPC applications. EDSFF drives also have a more efficient thermal design than standard storage drives, allowing a higher drive density in space-constrained multi-node architectures.
