SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 16, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Super Micro Computer, Inc. (NASDAQ: SMCI), a global leader in compute, storage, and networking technologies and green computing is demonstrating the very latest server and storage technologies and unveiling its new Supermicro Rack Scale Design (Supermicro RSD) at the Intel Developer Forum (IDF) today in booth 600. Supermicro is also hosting a Gold Sponsor Session on Wednesday from 2:30-3:30pm in Room 2003, where company experts will present their latest developments in Supermicro RSD.

At IDF, Supermicro is showcasing the latest innovations in server and storage technologies including an all-flash high-availability-in-a-box SuperStorage 2U 40-Bay dual-port NVMe system with dual node "Simply Double" based storage exhibiting up to 5Tb/s throughput and over 1.28PB storage capacity in a 42U rack; highest density and efficiency 3U and 6U MicroBlade; and a 7U 8-Way SuperServer with 24TB memory capacity supporting the new Intel® Xeon® processor E7-8800 v4/v3 product families and up to 16 U.2 NVMe drives. Supermicro is also exhibiting a 48 NVMe "Simply Double" SuperStorage server and a 4U/tower development workstation supporting the new Intel® Xeon Phi(TM) processors (formerly code named Knights Landing) with integrated or external Intel® Omni-Path fabric option.

In addition, Supermicro is lifting the veil on Supermicro RSD, which is architected to dramatically improve CPU and storage utilization rates, agility and efficiency in the datacenter. As a pre-packaged and pre-validated rack solution built on an open standards-based architecture, Supermicro RSD employs existing Supermicro hardware and open standards-based API-driven Redfish management.

"As the first-to-market leader, Supermicro provides enterprise, cloud, storage and IoT customers with the very latest advancements in technologies such as CPUs, GPUs, NVMe, M.2 and new form factor flash storage to enhance their competitiveness and help ensure future success," said Charles Liang, President and CEO of Supermicro. "Supermicro RSD, when combined with our comprehensive range of end-to-end server, storage and networking solutions, will provide datacenters with unsurpassed competitive advantages."

"Supermicro adoption of Intel Rack Scale Design across a wide range of their product lines offers a variety of solutions to meet the diverse needs of end users," said Charles Wuischpard, vice president, Data Center Group, general manager Scalable Datacenter Solutions Group at Intel. "These Intel RSD solutions will bring industry standards-based, hyperscale-inspired capabilities such as resource discovery, compose-ability and telemetry to the broad market, enabling improved customer TCO and flexibility through dynamic deployment and manageability of datacenter infrastructure."
