Executive Summary
Businesses create incredible value using data they have on
their systems, including edge systems. Retail, financialtransactions, machine time series data, security, or
manufacturing video feeds bring valuable insight to thecorresponding business, enabling process improvements andthe creation of new products and services.
Supermicro offers a completeline of edge systems to collectdata at business edge locations,such as storefronts. Supermicro
also offers a range of high density
CloudDC systems to run Cloudera
Data Flow, the Data-in-Motionplatform. The Cloudera Data Flow
reliably collects structured andunstructureddata(i.e.,transactions, time-series data,
Figure 2. Data flow architecture using Supermicro CloudDC
images, videos) from data
sources and edge systems. The
data in motion is reliably collected and pipelined to downstream analytics and AI systems. These Figure 1. Open source protocols tosystems then identify issues or defects while learning real-time changes. The learning could turn collect data.
into new opportunities for the business.

Cloudera Data Flow Management and Stream Processing•Cloudera Data Flow(CDF) is a scalable, real-time streaming data platform that makes it easy to collect, curate, and analyze
data to gain key insights for immediate actionable intelligence.

•CDF does this through Flow Management, where customers can build scalable data movement flows from the edge to thedata center using a low-code/no-code interface. The Flow Management is powered by open source Apache NiFi, MiniFi,and Edge Flow Manager.

•Stream Processing, which provides an enterprise-grade stream management and stateful processing capability to build
real time applications. The stream processing is powered by SQL Stream Builder, Apache Flink, and Apache Kafka.

•This is secured and governed through the Cloudera Shared Data Experience, called SDX.

Supermicro Data Center X13 CloudDC Servers and Edge Systems•

Supermicro X13 CloudDC systems provide
an all-in-one rackmount platform for clouddata centers. They come in either 1U or 2U
for optimal deployment. These systems
offer the latest Intel 4th Gen Xeon Scalable
processors that support DDR-5 4800MHz
memory and PCIe 5.0 I/O.

•Supermicro Edge systems come in various
form factors to provide optimal deployment
in edge locations to collect business data.
