Supermicro Starts Shipping X14 Servers With Intel Xeon 6 Chips

Super Micro Computer Inc. said it has begun shipping its new four-socket X14 servers built around Intel’s latest Xeon 6 processors. The systems are designed for artificial-intelligence, database and other mission-critical enterprise workloads and are certified for SAP HANA and Oracle environments. The company claims the servers deliver up to 50% higher performance than the prior generation. A single chassis can house as many as 344 CPU cores, 16 terabytes of memory and up to six GPUs, allowing customers to consolidate compute-intensive tasks on fewer machines. Supermicro shares rose about 0.3% in pre-market trading after the announcement.
