The Thunder HX FT77D-B7109 allows a 9th PCIe x16 slot to be installed next to 8 double-wide high performance accelerator cards. The design is ideal for NVMe deployment or high speed networking like 100 Gigabit EDR Infiniband, 100 Gigabit Ethernet, or 100 Gigabit Intel Omni-Path fabric. The platform specializes in massively parallel workloads including scientific computing, genetic sequencing, oil & gas discovery, large scale facial recognition, and cryptography.

TYAN's Thunder HX FT48T-B7105 is a pedestal workstation platform with dual-socket Intel Xeon Scalable Processors and a total of 6 PCIe x 16 slots and support for up to five high performance workstation graphics cards. This high-end workstation gives maximum I/O to the professional power user, and is aimed at 3D rendering and image processing. The Thunder HX FT48B-B7100 is a 4U dual-socket Intel Xeon Scalable Processor-based platform with 7 total PCIe slots, including 4 in x16 lanes and 3 in x8 lanes. The platform is ideal for industrial automation and large scale video capture applications.

Thunder SX Product Line Highlights Extreme Performance, Density and Scalability for Datacenter, Enterprise and Cloud

TYAN's storage platforms span a wide range of hardware specifications. The Thunder SX FA100-B7118 is TYAN's flagship storage server supporting dual socket Intel Xeon Scalable Processors and 100 3.5" drives in a 4U rackmount form factor. The platform is designed for both cold storage and large-scale object storage applications such as Lustre.

TYAN's Thunder SX TN76-B7102 is a 2U dual-socket Intel Xeon Scalable Processor-based storage platform. With the maximum expansion up to 8 PCIe slots, the TN76-B7102 allows users to mix and match combinations of a variety of expansion cards. The platform is designed to support Intel's on-CPU 100Gb/s Omni-Path networking fabric, and is ideal for many Big Data applications, including big data analytics, in-memory databases and data visualization.

The Thunder SX GT62F-B5630 is a 1U server platform designed for hybrid NVMe/SATA cache data storage with support for up to 8 hot-swap NVMe U.2 drives along with an OCP v2.0 LAN Mezzanine. The single CPU socket design makes it an ideal platform for workloads that work best within a single NUMA domain and require large amounts of high-speed flash, such as many media streaming applications.
