Inventec Delivers AMD EPYC™ 7002 Series Processor Solutions To Customers, Setting a New Standard for the Modern Datacenter

SAN FRANCISCO, August 9, 2019  PRNewswire/ — Ser­ver manu­fac­tu­rer Inven­tec (2356.TW) proud­ly joi­n­ed Ame­ri­can semi­con­duc­tor pro­du­cer AMD in laun­ching their latest AMD EPYC™ 7002 Series Pro­ces­sors in San Fran­cis­co, on August 7. The newest AMD EPYC™ pro­ces­sors will help data cen­tres adapt and deal with deman­ding workloads, while offe­ring embedded secu­ri­ty fea­tures to help defend against attacks to the CPU, appli­ca­ti­ons and data.

INVENTEC K885G5:
a high-per­for­mance 2U ser­ver sys­tem based on dual-socket 7nm AMD EPYC™ 7002 Series Processors

During the launch, Inven­tec also unvei­led its new K885G5 ser­ver which is com­pa­ti­ble with the AMD EPYC™ 7002 series pro­ces­sors and will be able to effi­ci­ent­ly and relia­bly hand­le the lar­ge amounts of data brought along by the AMD EPYC™ 7002 Series.

 

AMD EPYC™ 7002 Series Processors

The AMD EPYC™ 7002 Series Pro­ces­sors set a new stan­dard for the modern data cen­ter with breakth­rough CPU per­for­mance. The pro­ces­sors are expec­ted to deli­ver up to 2X the per­for­mance-per socket[i] and up to 4X peak FLOPS per-socket[ii] com­pared with AMD EPYC™ 7001 Series Processors.

The new series can also enable dat­a­cen­tres to be more respon­si­ve to increasing workloads. Deli­ve­ring a com­pre­hen­si­ve, con­sis­tent fea­ture set of I/O, memo­ry and secu­ri­ty fea­tures, across 8 to 64 “Zen” 2 cores, the AMD EPYC™ 7002 Series Pro­ces­sor deli­vers agi­li­ty from a balan­ced set of features.

With embedded secu­ri­ty fea­tures, the pro­ces­sors help cus­to­mers to bet­ter defend their CPU, appli­ca­ti­ons, and data.

This pro­ces­sor series will be well-sup­port by Inventec’s sta­te-of-the-art K885G5 ser­ver which is desi­gned to enable dat­a­cen­tres to accept and respond lar­ge amounts of requests.

K885G5 series tar­get com­pre­hen­si­ve appli­ca­ti­ons in vir­tua­liza­ti­on, hyper­con­ver­ged sto­rage, cloud com­pu­ting, and high-end enter­pri­se ser­ver, among others, with impres­si­ve TCO reduc­tion bene­fi­ted from the indus­try-lea­ding core den­si­ty and jump in per­for­mance. In addi­ti­on to high­ly ser­viceable 2U enclo­sure, K885G5 offers sca­la­bi­li­ty and fle­xi­bi­li­ty including

  • Up to seven stan­dard PCIe® Gen4 slots inclu­ding the opti­on of two full height dou­ble width add-in cards
  • One hot-swappable OCP 3.0 slot sup­port­ing up to 200GbE networking
  • A front-ser­viceable hybrid flash array modu­le that not only sup­ports all NVMe but also tre­men­dous sto­rage capa­ci­ty by optio­nal advan­ced SSDs in next gene­ra­ti­on form fac­tors such as NGSFF and EDSFF
  • Excel­lent ser­vicea­bi­li­ty and fle­xi­bi­li­ty from modu­lar design. This sup­ports tooll­ess ope­ra­ti­ons of ser­viceable parts as well as N+1 red­un­dan­cy for both power and coo­ling fans.

As AMD stra­te­gic part­ner, we always try to deli­ver inno­va­ti­ve next-gene­ra­ti­on pro­ducts that can meet the demand for relia­ble sup­port for very lar­ge, high-usa­ge deploy­ments. As a high-per­for­mance 2U ser­ver sys­tem based on dual-socket 7nm AMD EPYC™ 7002 Series Pro­ces­sors, K885G5 is desi­gned for today’s soft­ware defi­ned infra­struc­tu­re, offe­ring a visio­na­ry but con­so­li­da­te solu­ti­on for next-gene­ra­ti­on workloads to come.”, said Jack Tsai, Pre­si­dent of Inven­tec Enter­pri­se Busi­ness Group.

We’­re exci­ted and thank­ful to have our part­ners sup­port­ing the launch of AMD EPYC 7002 Series Pro­ces­sors,” said Scott Aylor, Cor­po­ra­te Vice Pre­si­dent and Gene­ral Mana­ger, Dat­a­cen­ter Solu­ti­ons Group, AMD. “Their EPYC based solu­ti­ons are poi­sed to deli­ver a new stan­dard for modern dat­a­cen­ter cus­to­mers. With twice the cores, breakth­rough per­for­mance and embedded secu­ri­ty fea­tures, all deli­ver­ed by a lea­der­ship archi­tec­tu­re, cus­to­mers can trans­form their dat­a­cen­ter ope­ra­ti­ons at the pace of their business.”

[i] Pro­jec­tions as of July 3, 2019. AMD 2nd Gene­ra­ti­on EPYC pro­ces­sor pro­jec­ted SPECrate®2017_int_base per­for­mance scores are deve­lo­ped using com­pu­ter mode­ling of each pro­ces­sors rev B0 which is then adjus­ted for the indi­vi­du­al tar­ge­ted fre­quen­cy. For EPYC 7282, 7272 and 7252, esti­ma­ted con­fi­gu­ra­ti­ons have 4x chan­nels per socket of DDR2666 memo­ry, and all other models have 8x chan­nels per socket of DDR3200. All esti­ma­tes use the AOCC com­pi­ler. Pro­jec­ted score only, actu­al results may vary. Results may vary with pro­duc­tion sili­con test­ing. AMD EPYC 7742 SPECrate®2017_int_base pro­jec­ted score of 625 vs. EPYC 7601 of 304 in June 2019 at http://spec.org/cpu2017/results/res2019q2/cpu2017-20190411–11817.pdf. 625 / 304 = 2.056 = 2x the per­for­mance.

[ii] Esti­ma­ted gene­ra­tio­nal increase based upon AMD inter­nal design spe­ci­fi­ca­ti­ons for “Zen 2” com­pared to “Zen”. “Zen 2” has 2X the core den­si­ty of “Zen”, and when mul­ti­pli­ed by 2X peak FLOPs per core, at the same fre­quen­cy, results in 4X the FLOPs in through­put. Actu­al results with pro­duc­tion sili­con may vary. ROM-04
