Today’s data center has numerous challenges: provisioning hardware and cloud workloads, balancing the needs of performance-intensive applications across compute, storage and network resources, and having a consistent monitoring and analytics framework to feed intelligent systems management.

Last week, Supermicro announced its new H13 A+ server solutions, featuring the latest fourth-generation AMD EPYC™ processors.

CPU chipsets are not normally considered systems-on-chip (SoC) but the fourth generation of AMD EPYC processors incorporate numerous I/O functionality at a high level of integration.

Google Cloud has been working over the past several years with AMD on developing new on-chip security protocols. More on the release of the AMD EPYC™ 9004 series processors in this part three of a four-part series..

AMD announces its fourth-generation EPYC™ CPUs. The new EPYC 9004 Series processors demonstrate advances in hybrid, multi-die architecture by decoupling core and I/O processes. Part 1 of 4.

Organizations around the world are requiring new options for their next-generation computing environments. Mid-size organizations, in particular, are facing increasing pressure to deliver cost-effective, high-performance solutions within their hyperconverged infrastructures (HCI).

For the first time, challengers can run their designs using thousands of AMD EPYC™ core CPUs, enabling artists to develop the most complex animations and the most amazing visualizations. “The contestants have access to this professional-grade render farm just like the pros. It levels the playing field,” said James Knight, the director of entertainment for AMD. “You can make scenes that weren’t possible before on your own PC,” he said.

Weka’s file system, WekaFS, unifies your entire data lake into a shared global namespace where you can more easily access and manage trillions of files stored in multiple locations from one directory.

Azure HBv3 series virtual machines (VMs) are optimized for HPC applications, such as fluid dynamics, explicit and implicit finite element analysis, weather modeling, seismic processing, and various simulation tasks. HBv3 VMs feature up to 120 Third-Generation AMD EPYC™ 7v73X-series CPU cores with more than 450 GB of RAM.
