NetNames Reimagines the Data Center with AMD’s SM15000 Server for More than $1.5 Million Annual Savings
-New Data Center Provides Unmatched Operational Agility, Massive Scalability and Economics-
SUNNYVALE, Calif. -July, 2014-AMD (NYSE: AMD) today announced the completion by NetNames of a massively efficient, hyperscale data center based on AMD’s SeaMicro SM15000™ server. AMD worked with the NetNames team to build out a new data center that simplifies operations, reduces power and removes layers of networking.
“NetNames” goal was to fundamentally rethink how a data center should be built to provide best-in-class agility, scalability and economics,” said David Jones, chief information officer, NetNames. “The SM15000 server was the only server that provided a positive return on investment (ROI) and made the project commercially viable.” By deploying AMD’s SM15000 server, NetNames was able to achieve:
- More than $1.5 million in expected annual operating cost savings
- Reduction in physical server rack space by 83 percent
- Consolidation of 500 servers into four SM15000 servers
- Reduction in ongoing operating expense by 75 percent
NetNames was able to transform the data center using the SM15000 server as the foundation to create a new architecture from the ground up. The design redefined the server building block leveraging the SeaMicro Freedom™ Fabric to disaggregate compute, storage and networking to build right-sized computing and storage nodes that are optimal to the applications being deployed. Traditional server building blocks are more limited because they come in fixed configurations that cannot be dynamically provisioned as needed.
AMD’s SeaMicro SM15000 Server system is the highest-density, most energy-efficient server on the market. AMD’s SeaMicro server product family currently supports the next-generation AMD Opteron™ (“Piledriver” core) processor, Intel® Xeon® E3-1260L (“Sandy Bridge”), E3-1265Lv2 (“Ivy Bridge”), E3-1265Lv3 (“Haswell”) and Intel® Atom™ N570 processors. The AMD SeaMicro SM15000 also supports the Freedom Fabric Storage products, enabling a single system to connect with more than five petabytes of storage capacity in two racks. This approach delivers the benefits of expensive and complex solutions such as network attached storage (NAS) and storage area networking (SAN) with the simplicity and low cost of direct attached storage.
