Supermicro solves for the most challenging workloads by using building blocks to purpose build infrastructure solutions at scale.

CD Content Delivery Networks

Build customized, private CDNs (content delivery networks) for enhancing network performance and content availability using the Varnish Private CDN solution. This provides edge caching of your most frequently used content.

Private CDN is a customizable content delivery network solution providing a fully optimized experience for users, without the costs and limitations of building from scratch or relying on public CDNs.

Supermicro systems with the Arctic Sound-M GPUs will address the demanding requirements in cloud gaming, media transcoding and streaming, virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI), simulation and  more!

With the industry's first hardware AV-1 encoder and open source media software stack, the Intel Arctic Sound-M dramatically improves performance compared with software-only video transcoding and delivery solutions and contains acceleration functions for VDI environments.

Media streaming

Redis is the datastore of choice for businesses in these industries, especially for supporting real-time scenarios such as highly personalized interactions, content caching, user session management, scoring, ranking, leaderboards, social engagement, messaging, notifications, real-time analytics and high-speed transactions.

Media and entertainment companies rely heavily on Redis because of its extreme efficiency and versatility in delivering real-time engaging experiences at scale and with minimal resource consumption.

Day 3 LightbitsData is ever increasing at the edge. A tremendous amount data is generated and delivered by Content Delivery Networks (CDNs) with the support of enhanced infrastructure such as networking and storage. High-throughput and low-latency storage systems are essential to high performance compute and data transfer.

Lightbits Labs leads the cloud-native data center transformation by delivering high performance, scalable and efficient software-defined storage. In contrast to other NVMe-oF storage solutions, Lightbits doesn’t touch or fundamentally change customers’ network infrastructure. Instead, the NVMe over TCP storage solution provides unprecedented performance.


Day 3 WilliamThe storage can scale up and out with Supermicro X12 Generation SuperServers, accelerating operations and lowering TCO. The Lightbits solution is equipped with 3rd Generation Intel Xeon Scalable processors, Intel Optane Persistent memory (PMem) and 100Gb Intel Ethernet 800 Series Network Adapters, starting ultimate performance from mere 3 RU space and delivering millions of IOPs with consistent low latency.
