KR6880V2, Designed for Mission Critical Applications

Enterprise application systems and environments are becoming more complicated as novel technologies such as cloud computing, big data, and AI gain traction. In particular, large-scale enterprises in finance, energy, transportation, and other industries feature enormous volumes of business data and complex computational workloads, requiring synergy among multiple computing cores CPUs as well as more than 8T capacity of memory. For this reason, the eight-socket server designed for mission-critical applications provides the optimal choice for core operations in industries such as finance, energy, and transportation. Boasting extremely high demands in product performance and reliability, it blends the most sophisticated technologies and processes in the technical perspective.

KAYTUS KR6880V2 is an eight-socket server built on the latest Intel® Xeon® processor, with a 1.9x increase in computing performance, a 3x increase in I/O speed, and a 1.2x increase in memory bandwidth. It supports heterogeneous computing with improved performance and can be configured with four dual-width GPUs for machine learning, deep learning, and many other scenarios. Furthermore, KAYTUS is constantly innovating and optimizing its complete system to meet the business demand for large-scale concurrent processing.

Unleash ultimate performance with a high-throughput, low-latency architecture

As for the entire system, KR6880V2 comes with eight 4th Gen Intel® Xeon® Scalable processors that boast a concurrent computing capability of up to 960 logical cores. It also features a brand-new 8 sockets with 4 UPIs/socket performance-optimized topology design, with high-speed linked networks built between processors via 16GT/s UPI to provide efficient data transmission and cooperation. Meanwhile, a high-speed cache of up to 112.5MB and DDR5 memory effectively resolve the bottleneck of data transfer between the CPU and the memory.

By using the I/O balance topology design, a single node provides four standard PCIe 5.0 slots to evenly distribute the computing power from 2 CPUs. This allows for the rational allocation of resources across 8 CPUs in the entire system, ensuring optimal performance for all components. The I/O balance connection reduces CPU access latency, enhancing overall performance.

KR6880V2 employs an innovative design of high-speed interconnection to decrease signal loss and increase signal transfer speeds. It takes into full consideration in terms of component layout, cable routing, connector and cable selection, and utilizes analog simulation technology to achieve the optimal SI link path to ensure the best signal stability based on a low-loss connection design.

Host-grade reliability

As for reliability, KR6880V2 incorporates a number of RAS design features for its components, modules, links, and systems to achieve 99.999% reliability. This ensures redundancy and protection for data in computing, storage, I/O, and many other aspects. Meanwhile, the fully modular design of KR6880V2 is characterized by the increased redundant backup in system components and modules. The power supply supports N+M redundancy and utilizes the dynamic power-capping technology to ensure uninterrupted operation in case of power supply or module failure. The dual chip-level BIOS/BMC redundancy design ensures stable and secure business operation. Additionally, the memory fault management engine and memory vulnerability technology enhance memory module reliability and fault tolerance while greatly improving its performance. By integrating PFR firmware protection and recovery, AMT technology to isolate memory faults, MRT technology for warning of memory faults, memory mirroring, and other technologies, the solution provides a stable and secure computing platform for mission critical business applications.

In addition, KR6880V2, based on a modular design, supports independent removal and maintenance of nodes as well as hot-swap maintenance of various components such as fans, power supplies, and OCP NICs, allowing for tool-less unpacking for the entire system and simplifying the server operation and maintenance. It also features a one-click BIOS setting to support 17 application modes in 7 scenarios, including OLTP, virtualization, energy efficiency, and balance, thus improving server deployment efficiency.

Chip-level cooling also poses another significant challenge to achieving high computing power. To ensure efficient cooling for a TDP 350W CPU and the optimal operation status of all components, KR6880V2 adopts the unique intelligent partitioned control technology to smartly set fan speeds according to the power consumption of different components in various air passages. This eliminates temperature transmission delays, realizes smart fan speed regulation and accurate air supply, and improves cooling efficiency, thus securing optimal performance.

In conclusion, KAYTUS KR6880V2 is an eight-socket server designed for mission critical business computing scenarios. Its advanced architecture, outstanding performance, and all-covered reliability secure its position as a trusted choice for core business operations in industries such as finance, energy, and transportation.
