X11 SuperBlade® Boosts I/O Performance Featuring Intel® Omni-Path Fabric

SuperBlade is first to market with the highest density server solution, maximum I/O flexibility, optimized cost for 100Gb/s throughput and reduced latency

          Our partner Super Micro Computer, Inc. (NASDAQ: SMCI), a global leader in compute, storage and networking technologies including green computing, delivers the Intel® Omni-Path Architecture (Intel® OPA) in the new generation, high-performance, X11 8U SuperBlade® systems supporting the upcoming Intel® Xeon® Processor Scalable Family (codenamed Skylake).

The X11 SuperBlade® is a density and performance optimized solution for high performance and Artificial Intelligence applications. The SuperBlade system supports up to 20x 2-socket servers,10x 4-socket servers or 20x Xeon® Phi based servers, as well as 1x 100G Intel® OPA or 100G EDR InfiniBand switch and 2x 10G/25G or 4x 25G Ethernet switches, with open industry standard remote management software for both servers, storage and networking. The integrated 100G Intel OPA switch is optimized for applications that require lowest latency and highest throughput. It can scale to thousands of nodes for high-performance workloads and provides adaptive routing to discover the least congested path, dispersive routing for multiple routes for redundancy and load balancing, packet integrity protection to allow the recovery of transient errors and lane scaling to deal with lane failure.. The enclosure has optional Battery Backup Power (BBP®) modules replacing high cost datacenter UPS systems for reliability and data protection.
