Mellanox® Technologies, Ltd. (NASDAQ: MLNX), a leading supplier of
high-performance, end-to-end smart interconnect solutions for data
center servers and storage systems, today announced the availability of
liquid cooled HDR 200G Multi-Host InfiniBand adapters for the Lenovo
ThinkSystem SD650 server platform, featuring Lenovo Neptune™ liquid
cooling technologies. This platform is ideal for high performance
computing (HPC), artificial intelligence (AI) and scalable cloud
infrastructures, utilizing Mellanox In-Network Computing acceleration
engines in an energy efficient best-of-class server. With this solution,
customers can now experience the fastest networking speeds deployed in a
shared configuration, allowing them to save on both CAPEX and OPEX
buying fewer networking components, while still running workloads much
quicker. Additionally, Lenovo’s Neptune liquid cooling technologies
reduce energy consumption, allowing customers to operate an extremely
energy efficient high performance data center.

“Our collaboration with Lenovo delivers a scalable and highly energy
efficient platform that delivers nearly 90% heat removal efficiency and
can reduce data center energy costs by nearly 40%, and takes full
advantage of the best-of-breed capabilities from Mellanox InfiniBand,
including the Mellanox smart acceleration engines, RDMA, GPUDirect,
Multi-Host and more,” said Gilad Shainer, Senior Vice President of
Marketing at Mellanox Technologies. “HDR 200G InfiniBand provides the
highest performance and scalability for HPC and AI workloads and when
combined with the Lenovo ThinkSystem SD650 Server creates a world
leading solution for compute and storage infrastructures.”

“As we embark on the Exascale era of HPC, the interconnect fabric will
be a key pillar of Lenovo’s ‘Exascale to Everyscale’ initiative that
seeks to bring the innovation of Exascale to HPC systems of all sizes,”
said Scott Tease, Executive Director of HPC & AI, Lenovo DCG. “This new
Mellanox HDR 200G InfiniBand solution provides customers faster
networking speeds, and when paired with the industry leading Lenovo
ThinkSystem SD650 warm water cooled server, increases performance while
reducing energy consumption – making it ideal for demanding HPC
workloads. We already have customers who are implementing this shared IO
solution today, taking full advantage of this comprehensive, energy
efficient system delivering unrivaled performance and economics at scale
across the cluster.”

Mellanox HDR InfiniBand end-to-end solution, including ConnectX-6
adapters, Quantum switches, the upcoming HDR BlueField system-on-a-chip
(SoC), and LinkX cables and transceivers, delivers the best performance
and scalability for HPC, cloud, artificial intelligence, storage, and
other applications, providing users with the capabilities to enhance
their research, discoveries and product development.
