Atos revolutionizes enterprise AI with next generation servers
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Paris, 9 November 2017 - Atos, a global leader in digital transformation,
launches BullSequana S, its new range of ultra-scalable servers enabling
businesses to take full advantage of AI. With their unique architecture,
developed in-house by Atos, BullSequana S enterprise servers are optimized for
Machine Learning, business critical computing applications and in-memory
environments.
In order to utilize the extensive capabilities of AI, businesses require an
infrastructure with extreme performance. BullSequana S tackles this challenge
with its unique combination of powerful processors (CPUs) and GPUs (Graphics
Processing Unit). The BullSequana S server's flexibility leverages a proven
unique modular architecture, and provides customers with the agility to add
Machine Learning and AI capacity to existing enterprise workloads, thanks to the
introduction of a GPU. Within a single server, GPU, storage and compute modules
are mixed for a tailor-made server, for ready availability of all workloads
worldwide.
Ultra-scalable server to answer both challenges: from classical use-case to AI
BullSequana S combines the most advanced Intel(® )Xeon(® )Scalable processors -
codenamed Skylake - and an innovative architecture designed by Atos' R&D teams.
It helps reduce infrastructure costs while improving application performance
thanks to ultra-scalability - from 2 to 32 CPUs - with innovative high capacity
storage and booster capabilities such as GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) and,
potentially other technologies such as FPGA in further developments.
"Atos is a prominent global SAP partner delivering highly performant and
scalable solutions for deployments of SAP HANA. We have been working together to
accelerate SAP HANA deployments by providing a full range of SAP HANA
applications certified up to 16TB. The new BullSequana S server range developed
by Atos is one of the most scalable platforms in the market, optimized for
critical deployments of SAP HANA. It is expected to open new additional
collaboration areas between SAP and Atos around artificial intelligence and
machine learning," said Dr. Jörg Gehring, senior vice president and global head
of SAP HANA Technology Innovation Networks.
BullSequana S - to reach extreme performance whilst optimizing investment:
* Up to 32 processors, 896 cores, and 32 GPUs in a single server
delivering an outstanding performance and supporting long-term investment
protection, as capacities evolve smoothly according to business needs.
* With up to 48TB RAM and 64TB NV-RAM in a single server, real-time
analytics of enterprise production databases will run much faster than on a
conventional computer by using in-memory technology whilst ensuring both
security and high quality of service.
* With up to 2PB internal data storage, BullSequana S efficiently
supports data lake and virtualization environments.
"To power Machine Learning and AI in enterprise IT, Atos has designed a new-
generation computing platform, which accelerates our customers' digital
transformation by converging business-critical computing and HPC within a single
device. BullSequana S is the ultra-scalable, ultra-flexible, go-to server that
delivers extreme performance while optimizing investment", underlined Arnaud
Bertrand, Fellow, Head of Big Data and HPC at Atos.
