2. Launch of High-Density MicroBlade Platform
Also on Feb. 26 Super Micro Computer introduced its MicroBlade server system powered by AMD EPYC 4005 series processors, capable of hosting up to 40 nodes in a single 6U enclosure. The platform integrates dual-port 25GbE networking, supports two PCIe Gen5 SSDs per node and offers power capping for enhanced energy efficiency and scalable cloud, edge and SaaS deployments.
