Supermicro Sets Performance-per-Watt Milestones
"Industry-leading performance combined with unmatched, earth-friendly power efficiency, make Supermicro SuperBlade(TM) and 1U Twin(TM) servers the best choices for all large-scale server environments seeking to optimize both performance and power consumption," said
"With outstanding performance and power efficiency, Mellanox(R) InfiniBand-accelerated, Supermicro SuperBlade(TM) and 1U Twin(TM) servers are industry-leading choices for enterprise data center environments and high- performance computing applications," said
Performance-per-watt, a measure of computational green efficiency, is calculated as GFLOPS (billions of floating point operations per second) divided by the power consumed (measured in kW) of a given system. LINPACK, an industry benchmark for HPC systems, is used to measure system performance in GFLOPS. Total power consumption was measured for each system during LINPACK operation. The resulting ratio provides a normalized method to compare the green efficiency between various servers.
For the ultimate in energy efficiency (93%*) and performance-per-watt (290 GFLOPS/kW), Supermicro is introducing the new SBI-7425C blade server optimized for its new 14-blade 7U DatacenterBlade(TM) enclosure (SBE-714D), which is ideal for data center environments. In addition, the new SBI-7125C blade server in the 10-blade 7U OfficeBlade(TM) enclosure (SBE-710Q) provides industry-leading energy efficiency and low-noise operation at less than 50dB, making it an excellent choice for office environments.
Alternatively, for the best 1U data center solution (240 GFLOPS/kW), Supermicro's new 1U Twin(TM) 6015TC SuperServers feature two DP server nodes in a single chassis and a 780-watt (90%+*) high-efficiency power supply. This 0.5U density (84 server nodes in a standard 42U rack) makes these platforms an excellent choice for high-performance computing clusters, server farms and other datacenters where space, cost, energy-efficiency and density are high priorities.
