Shulou(Shulou.com)11/24 Report--

EPYC (Xiaolong) can be said to be one of the most successful processor product families in the history of AMD. The fourth generation of EPYC products have been released since 2022. Today, AMD announced the launch of a new AMD EPYC 8004 series of processors, further improving the fourth generation AMD EPYC CPU family of workload optimization processors.

The new EPYC 8004 series processors feature a dedicated CPU based on the "Zen 4c" core to help hardware providers build energy-efficient, differentiated platforms that power smart edge applications such as retail, manufacturing, and telecommunications, as well as data center applications such as cloud services and storage.

According to AMD, the EPYC 8004 series processors further expand the fourth-generation EPYC family's leadership in performance and efficiency, not only to meet markets that crave powerful performance, but also to meet markets with ultra-high demand for energy efficiency, platform density and mute operations. With the AMD EPYC 8004 series processors, customers and partners can now expect the following benefits:

Smart Edge provides excellent energy efficiency: thanks to an efficient "Zen 4c" core and a new SP6 slot that brings faster memory and I / O capabilities, the EPYC 8004 Series processors deliver higher watt performance per system in the SPECpower ®benchmark.

Balanced performance: the industry needs to achieve the highest possible performance per watt in an environment with limited space and infrastructure, while the AMD EPYC 8004 series processors provide the balanced performance and excellent energy efficiency needed at the edge. In video coding workloads, the EPYC 8534P provides a leading total number of frames per hour per system watt. In the IoT Edge Gateway workload, the server with 8-core EPYC 8024p performs well in the overall throughput graph performance per 8kW rack.

Higher cost savings for smart edge deployments: smart edge deployments focus on smaller server nodes rather than the entire rack needed in the data center. In an intelligent edge deployment of one, three, or ten servers, servers based on AMD EPYC 8004 series processors are expected to help customers save significant energy costs over a five-year cycle, with higher core density and higher throughput.

The specific product specifications of EPYC 8004 series processors are as follows

Dan McNamara, Senior Vice President of AMD and General Manager of the Server Division, said, "the new EPYC 8004 Series processors extend AMD's leading position in this field by providing excellent CPU efficiency on single-socket platforms to meet infrastructure needs with limited space and power consumption. With the comprehensive improvement of the fourth-generation EPYC CPU series, we will continue to maintain our leading position in a range of workloads from the enterprise and the cloud to smart edge, technology computing and so on. "

With the release of the AMD EPYC 8004 series processors, CTOnews.com learned that at the same time, many OEM vendors have released a number of unique systems and solutions that take full advantage of the AMD EPYC 8004 series processors to meet power and temperature needs over a wide range of operations while supporting deployment in demanding physical environments such as dense data centers, urban telecommunications buildings, and factory workshops.

For example, Dell Technology released the Dell PowerEdge C6615 server. The system brings higher performance with lower TCO (total cost of ownership) in an efficient form factor design, and is suitable for extended workloads such as containers and micro-services.

Ericsson also launched the Cloud RAN computing acceleration solution, which can easily manage huge traffic growth and use mobile networks in a more efficient and high-performance way. The core density and AVX512 function of the processor can also handle high-load site traffic with FDD and TDD bands.

In addition, Lenovo also announced its latest flagship edge optimization server, the new Lenovo ThinkEdge SE455 V3, which is currently more energy-efficient, supporting next-generation AI applications at the edge and providing stronger performance, higher storage, and scalability, which is important for supporting large, high-demand edge AI workloads.

Microsoft Azure stressed their excitement about the launch of the EPYC 8004 series of processors, saying that customers who use Microsoft Azure servers at the edge in industries such as retail and manufacturing can now benefit from the unique power, performance and environmental capabilities offered by the EPYC 8004 Series, while looking forward to further cooperation with AMD and OEM partners and bringing these new solutions to market.
