Fujitsu and Supermicro have announced a strategic collaboration to develop green AI computing technology and liquid-cooled datacenter solutions. This partnership aims to create high-performance, energy-efficient systems for AI workloads, while also promoting green IT designs to minimize technology's environmental impact.
Fujitsu's 'FUJITSU-MONAKA' processor offers several advantages for AI workloads. Based on the Arm instruction set architecture, it employs cutting-edge 2-nanometer technology, delivering excellent performance and power efficiency. This new technology is set to be delivered in 2027 and is based on results obtained from a project subsidized by the New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization (NEDO). By integrating this processor into Supermicro's server solutions, the collaboration will realize outstanding performance and power efficiency, while also pursuing high reliability, security, and ease of use with wide software compatibility.
Supermicro's 'Building Block' approach to server design enables a wide range of servers to be quickly built and certified for specific workloads across AI/HPC and general-purpose computing domains. This modular design allows for easy customization and optimization of server configurations, making it an ideal platform for the integration of Fujitsu's 'FUJITSU-MONAKA' processor.
The liquid-cooled datacenter solutions developed by Fujitsu and Supermicro have the potential to revolutionize data center cooling and energy efficiency. Liquid cooling technology innovation has already made Supermicro an industry leader in shipping liquid cooling solutions today. By combining their technical capabilities and world-class global reach, the two companies will offer a market-leading server portfolio optimized for green AI infrastructure.
The collaboration between Fujitsu and Supermicro is expected to have a significant impact on the global AI computing market and competition. By combining their expertise in AI computing and green IT designs, the partnership will empower customers to implement green AI infrastructure, driving the evolution of AI and digital transformation (DX).
The green AI initiatives of this collaboration aim to reduce carbon emissions compared to traditional data center practices. Liquid-cooled data centers can significantly reduce energy consumption and lower greenhouse gas emissions. By implementing liquid-cooled data centers, the partnership expects to achieve substantial energy savings, further minimizing technology's environmental impact.
The long-term benefits of this strategic collaboration include reduced energy consumption, lower carbon emissions, and a more sustainable future for data centers. As the demand for AI computing continues to grow, the need for energy-efficient and environmentally friendly solutions becomes increasingly important. The Fujitsu and Supermicro collaboration addresses these challenges, paving the way for a greener and more sustainable AI computing landscape.
