The GIGABYTE R181-2A0 is a 1U server built around the second generation Intel Xeon Scalable processors. The second gen Xeon CPUs bring their set of benefits to the server that contain the usual suspects of Optane DC Memory support, higher CPU frequencies and the performance that can come with that, faster DDR4 speed, and Intel Deep Learning Boost. The server is super flexible and is aimed toward an application connected to shared storage, or perhaps HPC use cases.
