Lenovo introduced 21 new ThinkSystem and ThinkAgile V3 servers powered by 4
th
Gen AMD EPYC processors, extending breakthrough performance and
industry-leading efficiency to more businesses than ever with its
broadest AMD-based smart infrastructure portfolio to date. The
solutions, part of Lenovo's recently announced
Infrastructure Solutions V3
portfolio, will equip customers of all sizes with the ability to run
high-performance computing, artificial intelligence (AI) and traditional
workloads across edge and multi-cloud environments smarter, faster and
more efficiently.
"Lenovo is enabling business transformation with edge-to-cloud server
and storage solutions, helping customers harness the power of data,"
said Kamran Amini, Vice President and General Manager of Server &
Storage, Lenovo Infrastructure Solutions Group. "Leveraging 4th
Gen AMD EPYC processors' breakthrough performance with Lenovo's
engineering innovation, we are providing our broadest enterprise
portfolio, designed to help businesses across every industry accelerate
IT modernization and achieve intelligent transformation."
Breakthrough performance for complex workloads
As the proliferation of big data fuels the demand for computing
everywhere, Lenovo is helping customers modernize their data center IT
architecture. The Lenovo ThinkSystem V3 servers with 4th Gen
AMD EPYC processors are the industry's most reliable and high
performing, with added security. Together, Lenovo and AMD have amassed
approximately 100 world records across a broad range of workloads, more
than 2x the nearest competitor. With AMD EPYC 9004 Series processors,
Lenovo ThinkSystem servers support up to 96 cores and 6TB of memory per
CPU, accelerating the speed of business across a wide spectrum of
industry applications, including financial services, manufacturing and
retail.
For example, Cyllene, an IT company based in Paris that provides digital
transformation services and IT consulting, leverages Lenovo ThinkSystem
servers with AMD EPYC processors to achieve better business and
efficiency outcomes.
"Lenovo's AMD-based platforms contribute to the unparalleled performance
of Cyllene's ALTER cloud services in our data center," said Oliver
Morel, Chief Strategy Officer with Cyllene. "The energy savings are
real, regularly lowering our PUE and helping to make our overall efforts
to reduce our carbon footprint more valuable."
Advancing sustainable computing
As part of its ongoing commitment to enabling more sustainable computing
and helping customers achieve their sustainability goals, Lenovo
announces next-generation Lenovo NeptuneTM warm water cooling with the
new Lenovo ThinkSystem SD665 V3, a high-density server based on AMD's
4th generation EPYC processor that uses Neptune Water Cooling to capture
up to 98% of the system heat and reduce power consumption by up to 40
percent. The new Lenovo NeptuneTM Liquid Assisted Cooling solution also
helps customers maximize data center efficiency with CPU cooling
capabilities, ideal for legacy air-cooled data centers. Lenovo
ThinkSystem servers with AMD EPYC processors now deliver the Unified
Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) for Energy Efficiency, with
pre-defined tuning parameters for maximum performance and energy
efficiency. Additionally, Lenovo is making available CO2 Offset Services
across its ThinkSystem Server portfolio, allowing customers to
immediately mitigate the carbon impact of their data center gear.
"4th Gen AMD EPYC processors continue to raise the bar for
workload performance in the modern data center while simultaneously
delivering exceptional energy efficiency," said Ram Peddibhotla,
corporate vice president, EPYC product management, AMD. "4th
Gen AMD EPYC processors, on Lenovo ThinkSystem and ThinkAgile V3
servers, will transform our joint customers' data center operations by
accelerating time to value, driving lower total cost of ownership, and
helping enterprises to address their sustainability goals."
Optimized Solutions for Accelerated IT Transformation
With this announcement, Lenovo has launched 14 new ThinkAgile HCI Solutions with 4th
Gen AMD EPYC processors, ideal for hybrid-cloud and virtualization
solutions, helping customers consolidate their IT and simplify
management. New Lenovo ThinkAgile VX Solutions with AMD EPYC enable
public cloud-like simplicity, in a private or hybrid cloud environment,
delivering new levels of performance, scalability, resiliency, and
simplicity with high-performance storage devices. New ThinkAgile HX
solutions with AMD EPYC processors offer exceptional performance and
provide simplified operations, increased workload density, stronger data
protection, and seamless application across clouds to enable a true
hybrid architecture.
Through these optimized solutions, enterprise customers of all sizes can
flexibly deploy and manage local, hybrid or multi-cloud environments
while accelerating computing power to help solve humanity's greatest
challenges.
Security by Design
Modern IT infrastructures must be fortified against increasingly
sophisticated security threats and support the highest levels of
business continuity. Lenovo's enhanced ThinkShield and ThinkAgile
security capabilities leverage AMD Infinity Guard,
a unique advancement that helps businesses defend against internal and
external data threats while helping to mitigate threats during software
processing.
Lenovo ThinkSystem servers with 4th Gen AMD EPYC processors
also help keep data secure, whether in use, in flight or in store. The
AMD 'Security by Design' approach includes state-of-the-art security
features and a silicon embedded security subsystem to help protect data.
Lenovo's enhanced ThinkShield Security provides the industry's modern
infrastructure security capabilities for fortified IT resiliency,
compliant with the industry's stringent security standards. The
groundbreaking AMD EPYC processors also help enable innovative
technology like Confidential Computing, with a dedicated, fully
integrated on-die security processor.
