Spotlight on GPU
ASUS’ GPU server solutions, for example, are designed to provide high-performance computing power for various applications, such as data analysis, machine learning (ML) and scientific research.
These servers are equipped with powerful NVIDIA® graphics processing units (GPUs) that can accelerate complex computations and improve overall system performance.
ASUS GPU servers are also equipped with advanced cooling solutions and efficient power management features to ensure reliable operation and energy efficiency.
What’s more, ASUS offers comprehensive management tools and software solutions to simplify server deployment and maintenance.
It recently announced the groundbreaking ESC N8-E11V, featuring the intensely powerful NVIDIA HGX H200 platform, which is enabling organisations to unlock the full potential of AI and transform the way they operate.
This 7U dual-socket server, powered by 5th Gen Intel Xeon® Scalable Processors and eight NVIDIA H100/H200 Tensor Core GPUs, is designed to accelerate the development of AI and data science.
It offers a dedicated one-GPU-to-one-NIC topology and supports up to eight NICs for the highest throughput during compute-intensive workloads.
What’s more, to reduce operating costs, the ASUS ESC N8-E11V is engineered to provide effective cooling and innovative components that deliver thermal efficiency, scalability and unprecedented performance.
How can ASUS server solutions boost procurement?
ASUS’ servers have the potential to enhance a wide range of workplace functions, including procurement.
Just some of the areas where ASUS’ servers can help include:
- Demand forecasting: AI algorithms can analyse historical data, market trends and other relevant factors to accurately forecast demand. This helps organisations to optimise inventory levels, reduce supply chain risks and improve overall procurement planning.
- Supplier selection and management: AI-powered algorithms can assess various supplier attributes, such as performance, reliability, pricing and quality, to determine the best suppliers for specific procurement needs. AI can also monitor supplier performance in real-time and identify potential issues or opportunities for improvement.
- Contract analysis: AI can automate the analysis of complex procurement contracts, extracting relevant information, identifying risks and ensuring compliance with legal and regulatory requirements. This speeds up the contract review process and reduces the chances of errors or oversights.
- Cost optimisation: AI algorithms can analyse historical spend data, identify cost-saving opportunities and suggest optimal procurement strategies. This enables organisations to negotiate better pricing, identify alternative suppliers and optimise procurement decisions to achieve cost savings.
- Supplier relationship management: AI can facilitate better supplier collaboration and relationship management by analysing communication patterns, monitoring supplier performance and identifying areas for improvement or collaboration. This helps organisations strengthen supplier relationships and drive better outcomes.
- Fraud detection: AI can analyse procurement data to detect anomalies and potential fraud, such as price manipulation, duplicate invoices or unauthorised purchases. This helps organisations proactively identify and mitigate fraud risks, enhancing procurement integrity and financial control.
- Procurement automation: AI has the capacity to automate routine procurement tasks, such as purchase order creation, invoice processing and contract management. This frees up procurement professionals to focus on more strategic activities while reducing manual errors and improving process efficiency.
Transforming procurement operations
ASUS’ AI-powered infrastructure solutions are empowering businesses and their procurement teams to make data-driven decisions, optimise costs, improve supplier relationships and enhance overall efficiency.
By leveraging these AI technologies, organisations will find themselves in an advantageous position thanks to their ability to transform procurement operations and achieve better outcomes when it comes to cost savings, risk management and supplier performance.
