Lenovo to launch new server platform powered by AMD chips
Lenovo Data Center Group launched ThinkSystem server platform to handle heavy computing tasks inside data centers using chips from Advanced Micro Devices.
Lenovo is an important player in the server market since its inception. This is the first AMD based server platform by Lenovo that offers two-socket configurations.
