-- New Extreme-Density, Ultra Low Power Microserver Maximizes Performance and Energy Efficiency for Cost-Effective Hyper-Scale Computing

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 4, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Super Micro Computer, Inc. (NASDAQ: SMCI), a global leader in high-performance, high-efficiency server, storage technology and green computing, debuts an all new extreme-density server platform targeting hyper-scale data center and cloud environments. MicroBlade is a power and space saving 6U microserver featuring 112 ultra low power 8-Core Intel® Atom™ Processor C2000 (formerly codenamed Avoton) based servers in 28 hot-swap micro blades. This modular blade-based architecture maximizes rack space with full-featured power-conserving servers in easily serviceable front access hot-swap Blade trays. Compute and storage are integrated in the individual blades and shared networking, power and cooling are located at the rear of the system. The MicroBlade enclosure incorporates redundant Platinum-Level high-efficiency (95%) Digital Switching power supplies, optimized airflow with redundant energy-efficient cooling fans, an integrated chassis management module (CMM), Intel® high-bandwidth network switches and reduced cabling, lowering overall total cost of ownership. MicroBlade maximizes rack space utilization and conserves energy in web hosting, cloud services and the most extreme scale-out HPC and data visualization environments.
