Varnish Software has recently announced a record-setting content delivery performance in collaboration with Intel and Supermicro. They have achieved greater than 1.3 Tbps throughput on a single Edge server consuming approximately 1,120 watts, resulting in 1.17 Gbps per Watt.

“Achieving over 1 Tbps in a single Edge server is a major leap forward for the industry, and critical for delivering the next generation of video and digital experiences,” said Frank Miller CTO, Varnish Software.

The benchmarks were accomplished using Varnish Enterprise 6.0 deployed on a Supermicro 2U CloudDC server powered by 4th Gen Intel Xeon Scalable processors, without requiring the use of specialized, added-cost TLS offload cards.

“The need to deliver more throughput with less energy and at the lowest cost is growing exponentially. We have entered a new era of CDN cache performance,” assures Mr. Miller.

“The collaboration with Intel and Varnish Software is an example of how we are working closely with best-in-class technology partners to deliver the latest generation of cutting-edge solutions, specifically in the video streaming and CDN space,” highlights Michael McNerney, Vice President, Marketing and Network Security, Supermicro.
