Leadership Position
Arm SystemReady
New generation cloud native platform with larger scope that includes Server, Embedded, and Linux.
Arm ServerReady
Arm has developed two generations of processors so far. GIGABYTE has assisted and supported Arm in developing solutions, including the v1.0 & 2.0 ServerReady program since 2018. GIGABYTE is the only server hardware manufacturer listed on Arm's official website under Partner Testimonials.
Why Ampere® Altra® based Server? | Performance Boost
80 cores and 128 PCIe lanes demand data to be processed quickly and more jobs at the same time.
Architecture Efficiency
Designed for Cloud and Edge (cloud ecosystem native platform) and provides a high number of computing cores, faster throughput, and low power consumption.
Aggregate Powerhouse
Provides a management tool for cloud and edge to simplify management and improve efficiency.
Superhighway of Data
Utilizing the latest in PCIe 4.0 and 128 PCIe lanes allows faster throughput in GPUs, storage and networking.
Green Savings
Best in class performance/watt, Ampere® Altra® continues to increase value while driving down TCO.
Cooperation
GIGABYTE has developed with Arm systems for almost 10 years. Servers will be ready with fast TTM and product offerings.
Hardware Security | Hardware-level Root of Trust (RoT)
Protection is built in the silicon to ensure systems will not be vulnerable to security attacks or cyber threats. This ROT helps isolate the system as the boot process starts to verify cryptographic operations and ensures the firmware is not compromised by malware.
Optional TPM 2.0 Module
For hardware-based authentication, the passwords, encryption keys, and digital certificates are stored in a TPM module to prevent unwanted users from gaining access to your data. GIGABYTE TPM modules come in either a Serial Peripheral Interface or Low Pin Count bus.
