AIC Showcases AI Optimized Server and Storage Solutions at SC25

This week, AIC is taking center stage at Supercomputing 2025 (SC25) in St. Louis, where it is unveiling some of its latest offerings in server and AI storage technology. This renowned event attracts leaders in high-performance computing (HPC) and artificial intelligence (AI), and AIC's presence signals its commitment to supporting the ever-evolving needs of these sectors.

At booth #305, AIC is featuring its latest developments in Gen5 systems, including a sneak preview of its new Ethernet JBOD (eBOD) technology, which aims to simplify and enhance storage solutions for AI workloads. This innovative storage solution allows for scalable and Ethernet-attached capacity, aligning perfectly with the high demands placed on data processing in today's advanced computing environments.

In collaboration with Micron, AIC will demonstrate a powerful configuration that combines the AIC F2032-01-G5 with Micron 6600 ION 245TB E3.L SSDs. This setup remarkably supports over 140 PB of data storage per rack—an essential feature suited for the expansive data demands of modern AI and HPC applications.

Additionally, AIC has partnered with H3 Platform to exhibit a joint GPU-accelerated AI platform, based on the Falcon 6048 system. This system showcases cutting-edge technology, tying together PCIe 6.0, high-density NVMe storage, and the capacity for up to six GPUs, DPUs, or NICs, thus elevating NVMe performance beyond 200 million IOPs. This advancement is a major leap towards eliminating storage bottlenecks typically associated with AI and HPC workloads.

Moreover, AIC is set to introduce its eBOD technology, created in collaboration with Seagate. By leveraging Ethernet, this disaggregated storage approach permits NVMe-over-Fabrics on standard SAS/SATA drives, focusing primarily on high-capacity HDDs. This collaboration integrates a DPU and HBA card to deliver a remarkable performance that reduces data movement overhead and lowers total ownership costs associated with large AI pipelines.

Michael Liang, AIC's President and CEO, emphasized the significance of SC25, stating, "This event pushes AI infrastructure forward. We’re here to show real progress in storage and compute, reconnect with partners and customers, and explore the future of technology." Liang also expressed enthusiasm for the eBOD's functionality, highlighting its potential to create faster and more streamlined data pipelines at scale.

In addition, AIC's collaboration with ATTO Technology brings forth an impressive integration featuring the ExpressSAS® 24Gb/s SAS HBAs, linking an AIC server and JBOD for high bandwidth and low latency. This integration stands as a testament to the remarkable scalability AIC’s technology provides to AI training and HPC simulations.

Key systems that AIC is showcasing at SC25 include:

• - F2026-01-G5: Designed for high-density storage in AI data lakes and analytics.
• - SB102-CA: A GPU-ready platform ideal for media acceleration.
• - SB201-SU (Hybrid): Offers a balanced approach towards compute and capacity for virtualization and analytics.
• - HA2026-HC: Built for resilient storage catering to mission-critical tasks.

In addition to these cutting-edge products, AIC will also participate alongside partners like Solidigm, Ma Labs, and VAST Data, further highlighting its collaborative approach within the industry.

Visitors are encouraged to stop by AIC’s booth #305 to explore these advancements and engage with the latest in AI and HPC innovations firsthand. AIC, with its three decades of experience in enterprise hardware engineering and system integration, continues to position itself as a leading force in the development of next-generation server solutions.
