Performance-Intensive Computing Helps Lodestar Computer Vision ‘Index’ Video Data

Lodestar is a complete management suite for developing artificial intelligence-based computer vision models from video data. It can handle the navigation and curation of a native video stream without any preparation. Lodestar annotates and labels video, and using artificial intelligence, creates searchable, structured data.

CERN's Large Hadron Collider

CERN Parses Hadron Collider Data with 900 Supermicro Computers and AMD CPUs

CERN is trying to discover what happened in the nanoseconds following the Big Bang that created all matter. It is manipulating data flows with custom AMD circuitry that slices up the Large Hadron Collider data into smaller pieces. “You need to get all the data pieces together in a single location because only then can you do a meaningful calculation on this stuff,” said Niko Neufeld, a CERN project leader. The effort entails rapid data processing, high-bandwidth access to lots of memory and very speedy I/O among many servers.

Innovations from Supermicro and AMD Help Create Visual Effects for Blur Studio

Blur Studio calculated it could replace a competitor's 500-node server farm with just 56 Supermicro A+ servers equipped with AMD EPYC™ CPUs, getting equivalent processing power.

Supporting Complex Computational Needs with Turnkey Computer Clusters

Building the next generation of technical computing equipment has become easier, thanks to the combination of International Computer Concepts’ (ICC) hardware and Define Tech Ltd.’s software and firmware. The result marks a new direction for this market segment, offering a more flexible and useful approach, because it comes with software and applications for running complex engineering simulations.

Queensland Educational Foundation Boosts IT Security with Supermicro Computers Using AMD EPYC™ CPUs

In South Africa, the Queensland Education Foundation supports 11 different schools for the first 12 primary grades. In an effort to transform the region into a marquee digital environment, it has built a series of fully networked and online classrooms. The network is used both to supply connectivity and as a pedagogical tool to teach students enterprise IT concepts and provide hands-on instruction.
