We inhabit the early days of figuring out not only which AI (machine learning, large language models, voice, etc.) we need to deploy but also how to deploy it. Both remote servers (the cloud) and local edge servers have advantages and disadvantages.

Meanwhile, technology developers are busily devising upgrades to their systems that will enable those deployments.

This news comes from OnLogic, an edge computing technology developer.

OnLogic has launched the Axial AX300, a customizable edge server. 

The company details a few advantages to local deployment.

The Axial AX300 empowers organizations to seamlessly move computing resources closer to the data source, providing significant advantages in performance, latency, operational efficiency and total cost of ownership over cloud-based data management. With its robust design, flexible configuration options, and advanced security features, the Axial AX300 is the ideal platform.

Features include:

  • AI/ML inference and training: Leveraging the power of AI/ML at the edge for real-time insights, predictive maintenance, and improved decision-making.
  • Data analytics: Processing and analyzing data generated by IoT devices and sensors in real-time to improve operational efficiency.
  • Virtualization: Consolidating multiple workloads onto a single server, optimizing resource utilization and simplifying deployment and management.

Specs:

  • Powered by up to two 5th Gen Intel Xeon Scalable processors.
  • Up to 7x single-slot or 4x dual-slot GPUs, enabling up to 5864 TOPS of AI performance. In addition a wide range of memory and storage options are available, accommodating a host of data management and analytics needs.
  • Built-in security features such as locking front bezels, rear port-blocking attachments, and FIPS security level 1 and 2 compliance help protect valuable on-site data from tampering or intrusion. Onboard Intel Trust Domain Extensions (Intel TDX) offer increased confidentiality at the virtual machine (VM) level, while Intel Software Guard Extensions (Intel SGX) provide what Intel calls the most researched, updated, and comprehensive confidential computing technology in data centers on the market today.
  • The Axial AX300 was engineered to thrive where data-center servers might struggle. Advanced dust filtration, hot-swappable fans, and robust thermal management help to ensure maximum availability.
  • Shallow-depth 3U form factor. The system can also be installed in a tower orientation or wall-mounted. A license-fee free BMC enables remote monitoring and simplifies server management and maintenance.
  • Leverage the company’s strong relationships with software providers including Avassa, AWS, Nodeweaver, Red Hat, Viso, ZEDEDA and many others to architect the ideal data management, virtualization, or AI solution for their specific needs.
