Lenovo Unveils ThinkSystem Solutions with AMD EPYC Processors and Instinct Accelerators

October 11, 2024

Oct. 11, 2024 — Lenovo has announced its industry-leading ThinkSystem infrastructure solutions powered by AMD EPYC 9005 Series processors, as well as AMD Instinct MI325X accelerators.

Backed by 225 of AMD’s world-record performance benchmarks, the Lenovo ThinkSystem servers deliver an unparalleled combination of AMD technology-based performance and efficiency to tackle today’s most demanding edge-to-cloud workloads, including AI training, inferencing and modeling.

“Lenovo is helping organizations of all sizes and across various industries achieve AI-powered business transformations,” said Vlad Rozanovich, Senior Vice President, Lenovo Infrastructure Solutions Group. “Not only do we deliver unmatched performance, we offer the right mix of solutions to change the economics of AI and give customers faster time-to-value and improved total value of ownership.”

Lenovo ThinkSystem servers with AMD EYPC processors deliver unparalleled performance for enterprise customers. Combined, Lenovo leads AMD’s world-record performance benchmarks for AMD processor-based systems, representing 5 times more than industry competitors.

With the newly enhanced solutions, Lenovo is blending peak performance with enhanced efficiency to deliver industry-leading servers packed with optimal compute for faster data insights, greater efficiency and more cost-effective business operations. The lineup’s performance helps consolidate workloads, freeing valuable data center space while helping to lower energy costs and total cost of ownership.

“We’re accelerating AI transformation for enterprises alongside Lenovo, delivering robust end-to-end solutions at scale that provide the performance, flexibility and reliability our customers demand,” said Forrest Norrod, Executive Vice President and General Manager, Data Center Solutions Group, AMD. “Our latest 5th Gen AMD EPYC CPUs and AMD Instinct MI325X accelerators further our proven track record of bringing leading solutions, jointly, to help enterprises enhance their modern data centers and rapidly adopt AI.”

Lenovo continues to extend its industry-leading Lenovo Neptune liquid cooling for mainstream use throughout its ThinkSystem portfolio with new design innovations that use direct and open-loop warm water cooling to reduce energy consumption by up to 40 percent compared to traditional air-cooling models.

Bold Broad Platform for Right Mix of AI Support

As part of its ongoing investment in accelerating AI, Lenovo delivers a comprehensive portfolio of AI infrastructure and services that support businesses at any stage of their AI journey, with enhanced capabilities that drive maximum business value.

  • Optimized AI Performance: The new AMD Instinct MI325X platform accelerates AI training and inferencing workloads. 
  • Enterprise AI Workloads: Engineered for maximum compute for AI workloads, from LLMs to inferencing, ML, collaboration, database, design and emerging AI-enabled workloads. 
  • Right-Sized Compute: ThinkSystem servers powered by AMD are right-sized for CPU-only AI workloads & high-acceleration servers that deliver CPU+GPU configurations for workloads requiring maximum compute horsepower. 
  • Broad Platform Support: Addressing a broad range of AI needs, including SR635, SR645, SR655, SR665, SR675, SR685a, SD535, SD665, SD665-N and ThinkAgile HCI AMD-based platforms.  

Reliable Compute Infrastructure with Enhanced Security

Modern IT infrastructures must be fortified against increasingly sophisticated security threats and support the highest levels of business continuity. Lenovo’s globally engineered supply chain, ranked 10th in the world by Gartner, ensures systems are protected from manufacturing to deployment, with efficiency and resilience.

Lenovo continues to intensify focus on key areas in its supply chain, including security, digital transformation, and environmental sustainability. Alongside the company’s global/local approach to drive greater efficiencies and improved customer outcomes, Lenovo’s global hybrid manufacturing network includes 30+ manufacturing sites spanning 180 markets.

Leveraging the new infrastructure, organizations can accelerate their time-to-value by swiftly extracting valuable insights from their data to enhance productivity. Lenovo’s ThinkSystem servers with AMD EPYC 9005 processors are backed by enhanced security-by-design features and a US-based Product Security Incident Response Team for greater infrastructure and data protection.

Lenovo’s servers, ranked #1 in security for 5 years by ITIC, include a Modular Root of Trust that helps protect, detect and recover from cyberattacks and digital compromises with bolstered tamper-detection and monitoring embedded into the chip design, while Lenovo System Guard ensures heightened security between manufacturing, delivery and deployment with advanced hardware monitoring. Lenovo’s supply chain tamper mitigation is also compliant with the industry’s most stringent security standards.

Building on Lenovo’s advancement in AI innovation, Lenovo is delivering comprehensive AMD technology-based smarter infrastructure that advanced AI adoption for businesses of every size.
