Lenovo Expands AI and HPC Infrastructure with Liquid-Cooled Servers and Hybrid AI Services

Scott Patti

New ThinkSystem platforms powered by 6th Gen AMD EPYC processors combine high-performance computing, storage, cooling and deployment services to support enterprise AI at scale.

Lenovo has expanded its AI and high-performance computing (HPC) portfolio with new servers, storage systems, high-speed interconnect options and Hybrid AI services, targeting organisations seeking to scale scientific research, engineering and enterprise AI workloads.

The portfolio includes Lenovo ThinkSystem servers powered by 6th Generation AMD EPYC 9006 SP7 processors, alongside Neptune liquid cooling technology and expanded infrastructure services for enterprise deployments and large-scale AI factories.

A key addition is the ThinkSystem SC755, a dual-socket, liquid-cooled server designed to remove up to 100% of system heat through water cooling and deliver up to 40% higher sustained performance than comparable air-cooled systems, according to Lenovo. The ThinkSystem SR755 targets bandwidth-intensive workloads, including engineering, financial modelling, electronic design automation and agentic AI.

For storage-intensive environments, the new ThinkSystem DE6800 and DE6500 arrays are designed to support high-throughput, latency-sensitive block workloads. Lenovo has also validated the Cornelis CN5000 fabric as an interconnect option for demanding AI and HPC deployments.

“AI and high-performance computing are converging around a simple customer need: the ability to turn increasingly complex workloads into real outcomes.”

— Scott Patti, Vice President, Infrastructure Solutions Group, Lenovo

The company is extending its services portfolio to help customers deploy and optimise hybrid AI factories. This includes multi-node support for Red Hat AI Enterprise and NVIDIA AI Enterprise with NVIDIA Run:ai, as well as specialised gigafactory deployment and cluster-validation services.

Through a collaboration with Digital Realty, Lenovo will also facilitate access to global colocation facilities, supported by infrastructure validation at Digital Realty Innovation Lab and flexible TruScale services.

Lenovo cited the University of Florida’s HiPerGator system, delivering 17.49 petaflops, and DreamWorks Animation, which reports 20% greater performance using Neptune liquid-cooled servers, as examples of AI and HPC infrastructure in action.

The expanded portfolio reflects a broader shift: organisations increasingly need integrated compute, storage, networking, cooling and services to translate AI investment into operational capacity.
