Based upon the new OCP v2 spec, Hyve has designed a new 48V OCP v2 rack with a single bus bar for the masses. This new rack design, built around the Google/Facebook specification, will result in the highest levels of power efficiency and an overall simplified design. This track is designed to be an interactive Q&A discussion panel, moderated by Amir Michael from Salesforce and will include speakers from Hyve Solutions, Google and Facebook

Leendert van Doorn, Distinguished Engineer, Microsoft Azure, Microsoft Corp. will address the intersection between innovations in silicon technology and the resultant impacts on power, performance and efficiency. Innovations incorporated in Microsoft’s Project Olympus enable a broad spectrum of advanced workloads and support cutting-edge capabilities in delivering cloud services.
Microsoft has been building and managing datacenters for decades, during which time we’ve been a driving force in innovation across design, operations, and service delivery.
Our open source journey has shared the designs and technologies that power our own world-class cloud infrastructure, to enable an open, community-driven approach to innovation, and develop an industry- wide ecosystem via OCP.
The need to keep pace with tremendous growth in the cloud is clear. Equally important is the ability to deliver unique services and support a broad spectrum of workloads including those that are likely to spike in the coming years, given advances in fields like machine learning and AI.
In addition to keeping pace with the tremendous growth in the cloud, cloud infrastructure needs to balance power, performance and efficiency to deliver a broad spectrum of advanced workloads and anticipate emerging cloud services yet to be developed.

Escalating semiconductor development costs and protracted development cycles have forced Ethernet to evolve at a snail’s pace, creating a one-size-fits-all solution in a cadence of two years. Hence, the migration from 3.2T to 12.8T is a six year-long cycle. Contrary to that, modularity offers mix and match options at the silicon level, disaggregating the capacity from the I/O and accelerating time to deployment. Our first modular solution based on port extender technology will significantly reduce cost and power, while minimizing operational costs. Customers will regain choice and design optimization, and can craft a modular and effective configuration for each port density need.

The AMD “Naples” System-on-Chip delivers real innovation to better address the needs of existing and emerging data center workloads. With industry leading Core Count, Memory Bandwidth and unprecedented I/O “Naples” sets a new standard of performance, scalability and balance for the modern Data Center. Come experience how “Naples” is helping drive innovation through open source hardware design leveraging open ecosystem.
Intel® Rack Scale Design (Intel® RSD) is a logical architecture whose open standard APIs offer infrastructure manageability that is compatible with the hardware designs being contributed and adopted by OCP members. Come hear a technical deep dive about how Intel® RSD supports the explosion of workload types and use cases in the modern data center and benefits the OCP community.

Running a data center is now an economic choice, thanks to high quality public infrastructure offerings from global cloud players. For those who wish to operate bare metal themselves, it is essential to raise the efficiency of operation - in terms of the cost of skills, the speed of change execution, and the precision of the changes implemented. Automation of every aspect of hardware commissioning, allocation, deployment, configuration and monitoring is key to bringing data center operations in line with public cloud efficiency. In this presentation Mark will outline the convergence of network and compute provisioning and operations, as well as the state of the art of open source data center operations APIs.
