SuperServer 621BT-DNTR

Multi-node systems are designed so that all servers (nodes) are located within a single chassis with shared power supplies and fans. Supermicro has developed a product family that takes advantage of the latest available computing, storage, and networking technologies in the Twin product family. These systems are available in the TwinPro®, BigTwin®, FatTwin®, and GrandTwin™ product lines.

These product lines offer the latest CPU technology in various form factors and offer a significantly increased computing power and memory capacity density compared to traditional rackmount servers while reducing power consumption. For example, a Supermicro BigTwin with four nodes and dual processors in each node results in 8 CPUs in just 2U. This increased density compares to a typical 1U rackmount server with 2 CPUs in 1U, a 100% increase in computing density.

In addition, a single chassis containing multiple compute nodes reduces the amount of sheet metal used and allows for upgrading the nodes as needed. This also lowers possible E-waste as only one node needs to be updated or upgraded at a time.
