Why Enterprises Win When They Choose AMD

AMD continues to introduce a wealth of new innovations and technologies to customers globally, from the game-changing AMD Ryzen™ and AMD Ryzen™ PRO processor families, to world record-setting achievements with AMD EPYC™ server CPUs. From gaming to enterprise productivity, AMD continues to break new ground and facilitate possibilities that just a few short years ago would have been difficult to imagine, let alone achieve.

But it’s the enterprise space where demand is most significant; costs are going up, space is at a premium, and budgets are tighter than ever. New workloads like AI continue to add to the “in tray”. Thankfully, enterprise customers have access to cutting-edge AMD technologies.

Read on to learn why enterprises of all sizes should choose AMD for their computing needs in the server room, the boardroom, and beyond.

Enterprises Win With AMD Processor-Powered Servers

Starting with the server room, enterprise customers opting for AMD solutions see significant benefits across productivity, efficiency, and bandwidth. AMD EPYC processors are designed to deliver a range of options that enable scalable performance across various verticals and use cases, from architecture and design to high-performance computing.

The power of AMD EPYC processors enable stories like these to be realized across the globe, across industries, and scaling from the least demanding use-cases to the very top: supercomputing.

Supercomputing: AMD at the Top

As of this year, AMD holds 157 of the top 500 supercomputer positions, a 29 percent year-over-year increase. For the third year in a row, the Frontier supercomputer at Oak Ridge National Lab, powered by AMD EPYC CPUs and AMD Instinct™ GPUs, remains the fastest supercomputer in the world. Not only that, AMD also holds 157 systems on the Green500 list of the most efficient supercomputers in the world. It’s this blend of performance and efficiency that allows AMD to deliver outstanding results to enterprises consistently, whatever their need.

But beyond large-scale installations, AMD also delivers end-user system performance that doesn’t hold anything back, thanks to the power of AMD Ryzen PRO and AMD Ryzen™ Threadripper™ PRO processors, and AMD Radeon™ PRO graphics.

AMD User Devices: Breaking New Ground

With AMD EPYC processors and AMD Instinct accelerators powering server or cloud infrastructure, many enterprise needs are handled; but what about on-device, where work gets done? AMD Ryzen PRO and AMD Threadripper PRO processors deliver uncompromising performance, and when supported by AMD Radeon PRO graphics, customers have amazing power at their fingertips.

Customers like Red Bull Media House know it. Capturing incredible athletic events like Felix Baumgartner’s 24-mile freefall from space requires dozens of cameras, livestream infrastructure, and the performance to drive it all—not to mention the after-event finished media turnaround; editing turnaround times are often within hours of an event concluding at Red Bull Media House, so time is always of the essence.

Using AMD Ryzen Threadripper PRO processors, they get it done.

Other art and visual-focused companies like Ozone Story Tech rely on AMD technologies to work faster and smarter. A pioneering software studio that helps creatives develop film-quality character models swiftly, Ozone needed the performance to push boundaries and unlock new creative possibilities.

With AMD Ryzen Threadripper PRO processors and AMD Radeon PRO GPUs, they did precisely that. With 64 CPU cores, processing power became a non-issue, unlocking incredible multi-threading capabilities, while the 48GB of VRAM found on the AMD Radeon™ PRO W7900 GPU let them switch environments, test various scenes, and explore characters in real time without limits.
