Interconnections through the cloud and globalization have become the usual trend of work faced by companies from all over the world that are part of the multinational business. The problem is that the vast majority of current infrastructures are not designed or prepared to support large amounts of data.
It is expected that by 2025 they will reach generate more than 180 Zettabytes in terms of data flow, so there is a latent storage and security problem. In fact, 63% of companies They don’t put their critical workloads in public clouds, preferring instead to go hybrid computing to run them on private clouds and edge servers.
Faced with this situation, Atos has developed three new servers that offer a extreme flexibility, integrated security and one efficient carbon footprint that starts from a titanium power supply. This is the hybrid server BullSequana SHpowered by 4th generation Intel® Xeon processors, and two new edge servers, the BullSequana EXR and the BullSequana EXD. The latter will help companies face the new challenges related to artificial intelligence and analytics.
Manufactured in the French plant in Angers, they are equipped with the latest computer technologies, optimal motherboards for support and a eco-efficient packaging.
A common characteristic of the three servers is that they have hardware that allows them to run any workload and application with the lower latency and higher efficiency possible. In addition, they have a unbreakable security system based on Atos Root of Trust and Atos Chain-of-Trus that guarantees it at all times.
Another aspect to take into account is its commitment to sustainability, since Atos has always defined itself as a leader in decarbonization, so with these three new servers it has improved the computing density and consolidationbut in turn reducing energy consumption and carbon footprint.
Why BullSequana SH?
It is an ideal server model for installations and the public cloud. It enables users to run high compute-intensive workloads, business-critical applications, and in-memory applications such as databases and analytics. In the same way, it can act in virtualized and hyper-converged infrastructures, for hybrid computing and for AI such as deep learning and machine learning.
The Atos BullSequana SH drinks from the processor 4th Generation Intel® Xeon® Scalableso you can scale from 2 to 32 sockets as a single server and offer your customers great scalability without over-provisioning or excessive power consumption.
Likewise, the response time is faster thanks to the DDR5 memory supportalthough it should be noted that memory per system is also increased by applying Intel® Optane™ Persistent Memory 300 Series.
Why BullSequana EX?
The BullSequana EXR and the BullSequana EXD They arise to enhance computer vision in necessary cases such as next-generation AI inference for smart glasses, virtual and augmented reality, and intelligent scene change management. With an edge-to-cloud platform, it is possible to accommodate the most complex and voluminous data with the lowest possible latency.
Both servers offer a great flexibility, quality (optimized for 5G core, MEC and VRAN) and connectivity.
Specifically, the BullSequana EXD is based on a edge team with rack mount option, while the BullSequana EXR is a data center edge that can be used for hyperconverged infrastructure.
In the words of Emmanuel Le Roux, from Atos, “this is a key milestone for the company’s IT business, renewing its range of servers together with the launch in 2022 of the BullSequana XH3000”. The R&D optimization to create a new line of edge servers is essential to help customers face the new security challenges and data growth that are presented.
