AMD has expanded the choices available within its 2nd Gen Epyc processor family. The reason behind the expansion is simply to give customers more performance choices. Both a new 64C/128T part and a new 32C/64T part have been announced. Whichever you choose it will include 256MB of L3 cache, boost as high as 3.3GHz, support up to 128 lanes of PCIe 4.0, support for up to 3,200MHz memory, and offer advanced security features.
Today we have the launch of the 2nd Generation Intel Xeon Scalable refresh SKUs. Make no mistake, this is Intel’s competitive side coming out. The original 2nd Gen Intel Xeon Scalable Launch happened in April 2019, about four months before the subsequent AMD EPYC 7002 series Rome Launch.
Today, we’re now adding our fifth 64 core processor to the 2nd Gen EPYC stack with the AMD EPYC 7662. This processor is a great entry point into the 64-core market, providing customers access to the same high-performance ‘Zen 2’ cores as one of the world’s fastest x86 server processors with the AMD EPYC 7H1], but at a lower cost point compared to other mainstream AMD EPYC 64 core processors.
Today AMD rolled out two new second generation EPYC processors to add more performance options so customers can meet the right performance to workload. AMD is adding yet another 64 core CPU in the 7662 as well as a new 32 core model as well with the 7532.
The Intel Rack Scale Design infrastructure separates the physical compute, storage and network resources within a rack into logical resources that administrators can access through management APIs, which provide interfaces for discovering, composing and monitoring resources.

ZELENDATA CENTRE provides colocation, infrastructure as a service, and software as a service, and its Supermicro® servers are being cooled by GRC’s ICEraQ™ liquid immersion cooling systems.
Edge computing, which is the concept of processing and analyzing data in servers closer to the applications they serve, is growing in popularity and opening new markets for established telecom providers, semiconductor startups, and new software ecosystems.
That claim seems to be backed up by Super Micro's generally strong estimated numbers throughout this time. In conjunction with the relisting announcement, Super Micro raised its revenue guidance for the fourth quarter, and shares are up a whopping 20% in 2020 alone.
Susquehanna analyst Mehdi Hosseini reiterated a Buy rating on Super Micro Computer (SMCI – Research Report) today and set a price target of $35.00.
Cloudera adds support for Apache Flink. Supermicro Systems now certified with Oracle Linux and Oracle VM. Plugable launches 512GB Thunderbolt 3 NVMe drive.
