New era of cloud computing

TYAN showcases a complete array of platforms that support Six-Core AMD Opteron processors and IntelR XeonR 5500 processors at Computex 2009 (Tapei).

Taipei, Taiwan, 04 Jun 2009

TYAN announced its new Yellow River (YR) series products during Computex 2009. TYAN YR series is featured with high computing density along with superior server ingredients, targeting both enterprise and IPDC applications. TYAN also showcases the latest platforms supporting the new Six-Core AMD Opteron processors (codename: Istanbul) and the Intel Xeon 5500 processors (codename: Nehalem) at Computex 2009.

TYAN YR series brings in the new era for cloud computing. It easily doubles the computing power within the same rack space compared to traditional implementation. Other than density, TYAN YR provides much superior designs that perfectly match the IT requirement such as serviceability, expandability, manageability, and dedicate power per node. The lightweight design of YR170 was also awarded by a major OEM and deployed in Japan's market.

TYAN showcases four different YR products at Computex 2009, which target different application segments. YR170-B520M is the lowest power-consuming server platform in the world, which is perfect to the IPDC environment; YR188-B537M consumes an average of 150W in most of the enterprise applications, which is great for enterprises with good cost advantage; YR190-B7018 and YR290-B7018 are both dual-socket platforms with different in-place expandability, which can easily take over traditional 1U/2U dual-socket platforms in enterprises and IPDCs.

"The flexible management, easier availability, good resource allocation with lower cost becomes the major platform selection criteria for IT users," said Albert Mu, GM of Enterprise Business Unit of MiTAC International Corporation. "The new TYAN YR series products fit in different roles in the IT environment, especially for cloud computing. The simplified management, dynamic resource allocation and consolidated system bring the best features and benefits for all users. It is new era for IT industry."

Besides the newly introduced YR series platforms, TYAN also showcases seven platforms supporting Intel Xeon 5500 series processors (codename: Nehalem) at Computex 2009. TYAN S7025, the latest launched TYAN Nehalem platform, supports (2) Intel Xeon 5500 series processors and up 64GB R-DDR3 memory. The beauty of the platform is it provides total (7) PCI-E/PCI expansion slots, which include (4) true PCI-E Gen.2 x16 slots, support up to (4) PCI-E Gen.2 x16, double-deck GPU adapters for GPU HPC requirement. TYAN S7025 will be in mass production stage in late June. The other six TYAN solutions are all shipping now.

Furthermore, there are also 17 TYAN current products and two new platforms support the new Six-Core AMD Opteron processors (codename: Istanbul) and will be in mass production in late June. Customers can achieve superior performance, lower power consumption and lower cost by upgrading to TYAN platforms powered by the enhanced Six-Core AMD Opteron processors built on 45nm technology. TYAN platforms supporting previously launched Quad-Core AMD Opteron processors (codename: Shanghai) can be easily upgraded to the new technology by a simple, painless BIOS update.

Note: All Tyan Products are available at RedLinX High Performance Systems (HPS).
