Offering three distinct 2U models for the KS 5000 series, the KSa 5008 Cloud Compute Node is an Infortrend Enterprise Cloud (IEC) appliance featuring compute, storage, and Kubernetes cluster management in a 2U chassis. The front of the system has 8x U.2 NVMe storage bays. Optimized for GPUs, this system is ideal for high-performance computing, and AI applications. It is powered by dual AMD EPYC 9004-series processors.
This is a GPU-intensive model with support for up to 4x double-wide high-performance NVIDIA GPUs. With the ability to share GPU resources, it is designed for addressing AI training, generative AI, and 3D rendering as a private cloud platform. Offering substantial scalability, it can provide up to 80GPUs per cluster. Only the KSa 5008U features AMD EPYC processors, while the other appliances in the family are outfitted with 4th generation Intel Xeon Scalable processors. With 12-channel memory architecture and 24x DDR5 memory module slots between the 2x processors, 1x DIMM per Channel (1DPC) can be installed for best performance and memory speed. The default configuration includes up to 192GB DDR5 Registered DIMMs but the system can be outfitted with up to 1.5TB of memory.
