Blade architectures with integrated switching for maximum density and energy efficiency.
Supermicro SuperBlade and MicroBlade are blade architectures that share power, cooling, networking and management across many server nodes in one enclosure, cutting cabling and energy use while maximising density.
SuperBlade targets HPC and enterprise clusters with Intel Xeon 6 blades and optional liquid cooling; MicroBlade targets ultra-dense, scale-out cloud with low-power processors.
Each single-width SuperBlade node uses just 0.4U of rack space.
SuperBlade in a standard 48U rack; MicroBlade reaches 320 nodes.
Ethernet and InfiniBand switch modules inside the enclosure.
For high-TDP Intel Xeon 6 processors.
