(PR) GIGABYTE Announces its First Dual-socket Arm-based Servers for Cloud-Native Applications

GIGABYTE Technology, an industry leader in high-performance servers and workstations, today announced new high-density, Arm-based compute servers for cloud-native applications using Ampere Altra processors that support dual socket configurations with up to 256 CPU cores. The GIGABYTE R-series servers already have unique storage options, and the new servers (R182-P91, R282-P91, and R282-P92) extend the depth of support for NVMe (Gen4) SSDs on the Arm platform. For scalable, high-density compute, the last new server, H262-P61, also has no thermal limitations, as it can sustain peak, consistent performance by providing optimal airflow. This multi-node H-series server supports eight CPUs, which translates to as many as 1,024 Arm-based CPU cores in a traditional 2U server. Working off the strengths of the latest Arm architecture for System on Chip (SoC) solutions, Ampere Altra and Altra Max processors are now supported in both single and dual-socket configurations by GIGABYTE.
