On Tuesday, May 7 2024, IBM announced a new model IBM Power 10, S1012, which caught my eye. It is smaller than the other IBM Power rack mounted servers, and it also comes in a cool looking tower version too.
The following statements in the announcement caught my eye:
- "This 1-socket, half-wide Power10 processor-based system delivers up to 3X more performance per core versus Power S812"
- "delivers the lowest entry price point in the Power port[f]olio to run core workloads for small and medium-sized organizations"
- "provides clients the flexibility to run AI inferencing workloads in remote office and back office (ROBO) locations outside mainstream datacenter facilities"
- "By deploying Power S1012 at the edge, clients can run AI inferencing at the point of data, thus eliminating data transfers."
- "Each Power S1012 includes Four Matrix Math Accelerators per core to support AI inferencing."
IMHO it is worthwhile reading the announcement to learn that there is an alternative to the NVIDA chip-based AI solutions.
