Case Study: a Fortune 100 technology company scales to trillions of events and messages with Supermicro FatTwin servers

Fortune 100 Technology Company Uses Supermicro Servers to Handle Trillions of Events and Messages, without any Data Loss

A Fortune 100 technology company needed a hardware solution to support the exponential growth of its social media platform, which had to handle trillions of events and messages without any data loss. The company required a modular and compact server design from a vendor like Supermicro to support multiple use cases with the same chassis and fit within its data center constraints.

Supermicro provided its FatTwin servers, which feature a shared redundant power chassis, hot-swappable nodes with individual RAID-capable drives, and a highly modular design. This solution allowed the company to reliably scale its platform to over 100,000 server nodes deployed globally over a decade, ensuring no data loss while making the system easy to maintain and deploy across multiple data centers.
