Computex: Tyan Unveiled Storage and HPC Server Platforms With AMD EPYC Processor

At Computex, TYAN, an MiTAC Computing Technology Corporation subsidiary, introduced a line of storage and HPC server platforms based on AMD (Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.) EPYC processor that are targeted at datacenter markets.

Transport SX TN70A-B8026

“Today’s data-driven business is reshaping the world and has brought data center efficiency to the spotlight,” said Danny Hsu, VP, TYAN. “TYAN’s AMD EPYC-based server platforms can help accelerate big data and in-memory database applications that require large memory sizes, high memory bandwidth, and high-bandwidth I/O to manage and analyze massive amounts of unstructured data.“

Transport SX TN70E-B8026

Single-socket storage platforms to deliver performance feature to data centers
The company maximizes the single socket AMD EPYC’s value to develop a range of single-socket server systems that can deliver dual socket features and performance. Both the Transport SX TN70A-B8026 and Transport SX TN70E-B8026 are designed for software-defined storage, content distribution, and enterprise workloads in a 2U form factor. The TN70A-B8026 spans four different storage options: 24 hot-swap NVMe U.2 drives and two NVMe M.2 drives for all-flash storage applications, 16 hot-swap NVMe U.2 drives and eight SATA drives, eight hot-swap NVMe U.2 drives and 16 SATA bays for tiered storage, and 24 hot-swap 2.5″ SATA drives for general purpose storage. The TN70E-B8026 supports twelve 3.5″ hot-swap SATA drives and four hot-swap NVMe U.2 drives for high capacity hybrid storage.

Transport SX GT62F-B8026

For cost-effective storage applications, the Transport SX GT62F-B8026 features ten hot-swap NVMe U.2 drives and two NVMe M.2 drives and is designed for high speed data streaming applications, supporting up to 300GbE and balanced 300Gb/s to the SSDs. More general purpose applications can utilize ten 2.5″ hot-swap SATA drives, making it for enterprise applications, data center deployment, virtualization, software-defined storage, and general purpose server workloads.

Transport HX GA88-B8021

HPC to address demanding HPC and AI applications
The Transport HX GA88-B8021 features support for up to six GPU cards within a 1U chassis and is a GPU density server available. The platform takes advantage of the EPYC architecture by allowing maximum GPU deployment without the use of PCIe switching. The GA88-B8021 offers an additional PCIe x16 slot for accommodating a high-speed networking adapter with bandwidth up to 100Gb/s such as EDR IB or 100GbE. It is for AI, machine learning, and deep neural network training and inferencing workloads.

For the most demanding workloads, the Transport HX TN76A-B8242 leverages major advancements of EPYC dual socket in compute, memory, I/O and security capabilities to deliver performance. The system supports for up to 32 DIMMs and 26×2.5″ hot-swap SATA drives for HPC and virtualization applications.
