Fujitsu Limited and Supermicro enter into a long-term strategic collaboration to develop and market a platform with Fujitsu’s future Arm-based “FUJITSU-MONAKA” processor. This platform is designed for high performance and energy efficiency and is targeted for release in 2027.
In addition, the two companies will also collaborate on developing liquid-cooled systems for HPC, Gen AI, and next-generation green data centers.
By integrating Fujitsu’s cutting-edge “FUJITSU-MONAKA” processor, the two companies will realize excellent performance and power efficiency while also pursuing high reliability, security, and ease of use with wide software compatibility, thereby empowering customers to implement green AI infrastructure.
Fujitsu and Supermicro will combine their technical capabilities and world-class global reach to offer a market-leading server portfolio. Supermicro’s Building Block approach to server design enables a wide range of servers to be quickly built and certified for specific workloads across AI/HPC and general-purpose computing domains in deployments from cloud data centers to edge applications.
“Supermicro is excited to collaborate with Fujitsu to deliver state-of-the-art servers and solutions that are high performance, power efficient, and cost-optimized,” said Charles Liang, president and CEO of Supermicro. These systems will be optimized to support a broad range of workloads in AI, HPC, cloud, and edge environments. The two companies will focus on green IT designs with energy-saving architectures, such as liquid cooling rack scale PnP, to minimize technology’s environmental impact.”
As the use of AI continues to grow, demand for data center capacity is rising faster than what can be supplied, and one of the biggest challenges is efficiently meeting growing power consumption requirements.
Liquid cooling technology innovation has already made Supermicro an industry leader in shipping liquid cooling solutions today. A key focus will be bringing together Fujitsu and Supermicro expertise to further develop rack-scale liquid cooling solutions.
“The collaboration between Fujitsu and Supermicro is a groundbreaking initiative that will accelerate green computing innovation,” said Vivek Mahajan, Corporate Vice President, CTO, and CPO, Fujitsu. By combining our technologies, we will enable high-performance, energy-efficient AI system infrastructure, driving the evolution of AI and Digital Transformation (DX).”
As a provider of information and communication technology services and data center infrastructure, Fujitsu and Supermicro believe that promoting a green AI infrastructure that reduces power consumption and environmental impact in data centers is a top priority.
