Penguin Computing Virtual Demos
Penguin Computing experts will be virtually offering:

• Demonstrations
  • Relion^® XO1122eAP – (Intel^Ⓡ Xeon^Ⓡ  Scalable 9200 series processors in 21” OCP form factor):
    • The first implementation of Intel Xeon Scalable 9200 series processors in an OCP form factor
    • Tundra AP is the chassis that takes existing Intel^® Compute Modules and enables support in Open Compute Racks
    • Supports the following Intel Compute Modules:
      • Intel^® Server System S9256WK1HLC Compute Module
      • Intel Server System S9248WK1HLC Compute Module
      • Intel Server System S9232WK1HLC Compute Module
    • For OCP customers, this is a new CPU architecture option
    • For customers interested in Xeon Scalable 9200 series processors, this form factor change provides higher node density and almost double the power capacity of a standard 19” form factor.
    • Customers and data centers using the Open Compute form factor now have access to Intel’s flagship HPC product, Xeon Scalable 9200 series processors.
  • Penguin Computing Enterprise AI/ML at Scale Reference Architecture powered by Red Hat^® OpenShift^® Container Platform 4:
    • A proven AI/ML optimized infrastructure for containerized AI/ML workloads delivering true workload portability, enabling AI everywhere.
    • This reference architecture for Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform 4 provides an engineered and optimized AI/ML infrastructure to run and monitor AI/ML workloads on an enterprise supported and secured Kubernetes platform.
    • This paper shows how enterprise customers can leverage open hardware and software technologies to deliver enterprise grade secured and supported workload portability.
    • The combination of Penguin Computing^® Tundra^® Extreme Scale OCP hardware and Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform 4 provides a trusted Open Hybrid Cloud solution enabling AI/ML workloads at scale from edge to core.
