On February 29th, the AMD EPYC Partner Summit was successfully held in Beijing, and Heavy Rain was invited to participate as an important ecosystem partner of AMD. As AMD's first event of the year, this event was of great significance, as AMD shared with partners the latest progress in AMD's new data center product roadmap, solutions, and ecosystem construction.
AMD is one of the most important partners of Heavy Rain, and over the years, the two sides have cooperated in many fields such as financial transactions, cloud gaming, medical imaging, smart education VDI, Internet DPI, and HPC. And based on the needs of local customers in China, Heavy Rain has achieved a number of technological innovations and upgrades on the basis of AMD innovation. Modular customization according to customer needs, flexible deployment in a compact space, increasing computing density per unit area, and helping users significantly reduce total cost of ownership. In terms of computing power scheduling and deployment, in the face of problems such as scheduling difficulties, slow deployment, low efficiency, and abnormal clusters in the process of computing power use, Yuyu has also built a server intelligent management platform to realize the efficient operation and management of massive computing resources, accelerate the rapid integration and scheduling of computing resources, realize rapid fault troubleshooting, and empower IT to continue to innovate.
Last year, AMD launched the "GenOA"** AMD EPYC processor platform, and Yuyu simultaneously released a series of server products based on the Genoa platform to fully optimize the load of AI functions and provide customers with more powerful and flexible computing power. At present, many of the new servers support AMD's latest EPYC 9004 series processors, which can better handle a wide range of application scenarios including virtualization, high-performance computing, big data and AI.
The AMD Genoa dual-socket high-end server on display at the event is the star product of the AMD product line, achieving a balance of performance, density and energy consumption, making it an ideal choice for use cases such as high-performance computing, big data processing and virtualization, and cloud computing. AMD Genoa dual-socket servers are powered by 2 AMD EPYC9004 (GENOA) processors, supporting 24 new DDR5 memory and the latest PCIe50 technology to achieve high-speed interconnection. The modular design of the whole machine supports flexible switching between the heterogeneous topology of CPUs and GPUs to match different application scenarios.
In 2023, AIGC's breakthrough innovation has triggered a tide of intelligent transformation in the industry and opened a new era of AI. Under the wave of AI large models, the development of intelligent computing infrastructure and the intelligent transformation and upgrading of industries are in urgent need of strong computing power. Yuyu has cooperated with AMD to launch a variety of AI servers to provide high-performance and diversified computing services for large model training and inference. For the future development of the AI industry, the two parties will also carry out more in-depth strategic cooperation, innovate products and services, go deep into customer application scenarios, provide better basic computing services, and achieve performance improvement and cost optimization.
The AMD Milan dual-socket 4U10 card AI server on display at the event is an AI server based on the needs of model training, optimization, and inference in the era of large AI models. It supports 2 high-performance AMD EPYC series processors, adopts industry-leading GPU accelerated computing technology, can support 10 double-width full-height full-length GPU cards, and supports 16 DDR4 memory slots, with reliable scalability and high availability, greatly improving performance and efficiency, and can provide powerful AI computing power support for high-performance computing, artificial intelligence, machine learning and graphics workloads.
AMD has been catching up with Moore's Law, taking the lead in the industry to start its own rhythm of "rolling", and constantly breaking the ceiling of industry cognition. With AMD microprocessors as the base, we will continue to launch products and services solutions that meet customer needs, and provide new computing power for the transformation of thousands of industries.
