  1. 3 Introduction to Bamboo Established in 2015 as KALEAO by

    a team of experts in HPC and Arm technologies and markets Reborn as Bamboo Systems in December 2019 with new funding and new leadership focused on go-to-market HQ is Cambridge, UK; Offices in San Jose, CA © 2020 Bamboo Systems Group

    Craythorne, CEO John Goodacre, CSciO Vicki Grey, CMO Note: Chairman of the Board is Dr. Geoff Barrall
  3. 6 On Prem Server Market by Revenue The server market,

    today, is worth ~$85B annually* with ~2.6M units shipped in 2019 Not only will Bamboo be part of market’s organic growth, but we will lead the revolution towards a new generation of data centre platforms. © 2020 Bamboo Systems Group *source IDC Worldwide Server Market
  4. 7 The problem: legacy servers aren’t keeping up • The

    server industry is an $85bn Market dominated by legacy server design – Cost of operating data centres now exceeds the cost to build – Legacy server architecture struggling to keep up with modern software design – New workloads such as edge, containers, AI, and ML are transforming requirements – Energy has also become a major economic and political concern Traditional server architecture is not evolving fast enough for modern, agile, highly parallel workloads, straining data centres to the breaking point © 2020 Bamboo Systems Group
  5. 8 Data Centre power consumption now a global issue Data

    Centres consume… 3.5% of the world’s energy…* produce 2% of the world’s greenhouse gas emissions… and are projected to overtake the aviation industry as the world’s biggest energy hog © 2020 Bamboo Systems Group * source: Enerdata publication
  6. 10 A New Wave of Compute Dominates Everywhere… Except the

    Data Centre The benefits of low power chip designs are dominating the diversifying compute ecosystem, growing relentlessly towards the data centre Source: Arm The data centre is the last island for Intel-based solutions Meanwhile, Arm Servers are becoming mainstream Source: Merv Adrian, Gartner Analyst, tweeted 29th July 2019
  7. 11 Arm servers are becoming mainstream • We expect Arm

    servers to take a significant market share over the next 5 years • Server Revenue in 1Q2020* – X86 servers decreased 9.1% – Non-x86 increased 38.2% • AWS’ Graviton shows Arm Servers can run anything x86 Servers can – As the market matures, and in line with Enterprise buying cycles, Arm servers are poised to take significant double digit share • Apple expected to announce they are moving away from Intel to Arm across their entire product line • The market is ready and Bamboo is well positioned to lead Source: Merv Adrian, Gartner Analyst, tweeted 29th July 2019 © 2020 Bamboo Systems Group Source: IDC Server Revenue 1Q 2020
  8. 12 Building servers with Arm processors Other Arm server vendors

    have fallen into the trap of following the traditional server architecture model, creating more powerful processors simply plugged into an x86 socket. To meet the needs of the next generation of data centres, new highly parallel, low energy architectures are required. • Bamboo is the first server being designed for next generation data centres, where power is measured in kilowatt-hours not GHz or Xeon cores • Using embedded systems methodology, Bamboo has developed a server architecture that: – Utilises COTS components in a highly dense configuration – Uses a fraction of the energy for a given workload – Is much less expensive • Bamboo is poised to take advantage of a growing ecosystem of market leaders investing in Arm platforms. © 2020 Bamboo Systems Group
  9. 13 Designed for the Modern Data Centre Unique Parallel Arm

    Node Designed Architecture (PANDA) saves up to: • 50% of your acquisition cost • 75% of your energy consumption • 80% of your rack space © 2020 Bamboo Systems Group Bamboo’s revolutionary server architecture represents the energy efficiency, compactness and scalability needs of modern high-performance workloads as well as processing at the edge
  10. 15 The Traditional Server – 2 Servers, 2U, plus Connections

    Serial Port 8 Ethernet Connectors Become 4 QFSP Connectors Double the Throughput
  11. 17 Bamboo PANDA Architecture • More memory bandwidth enables faster

    data processing • Increases security by separating IO and Management from application • Delivers more performance in the same space using less energy than large power-hungry chips • Delivers the TCO benefits of converged platforms without impacting application performance • More efficient use of the available performance to run applications • No massive changes to operations/users as it runs the same Linux applications • Energy consumption directly related to use, unlike traditional chip sets.
