Non solo "Best Performance" Non solo "Best Performance"! Le nuove soluzioni per HPC e Cloud computing. Antonio Rolli Senior Sales Manager Version 2012 Q1

Supermicro Overview Founded in 1993, headquartered in Silicon Valley, USA (NASDA 2007: SMCI) Supermicro is the market leader in server technology innovation and green computing Supermicro has the broadest server portfolio than anyone else in the industry; all the designs are in-house / under the same roof Supermicro’s application-optimized high-efficiency server, blades, GPU system, storage and workstation are deployed globally for data centers and critical IT infrastructures

Our Position & Potential to Grow Confidential Revenue ($M) Market share Growing every year since founding, no exception Outgrowing our aggressive competitions consistently Winning by Technology and TTM To grow even faster through increasing scale and innovation June, 2011 2008 ~ 2011 Growth Rate SMCI Other Tier 1’s

Technology Evolution Supermicro’s Building Block Solutions From MB, Chassis to Complete Rack w/ Pwr & Sys management Fat Twin Management SWR Starting out in ‘93 we created our first motherboard – even back then we had three principles of Innovation, Energy Efficiency and Open Standards. Soon that MB lead to the creation of complimentary products such as chasis and power supplies. Bringing these various products together we developed our earliest server systems. This broad portfolio is what we now call our “Building Blocks”. Diversity into system level compliments such as storage and rack mount servers were subsequently developed, all leading to one of our most significant technically innovative breakthroughs in 2006 / 2007 – the Twin Architecture. Twin was disruptive. It was the first culmination of everything that Supermicro stands for: Innovation, Performance, Energy Efficiency and Open Standards / Platforms. The Twin Architecture is a central theme in much of SMC’s technology development today. We are proud to have announced at IDF in Sept. the launch of our Super Rack. – our SuperRack is in itself the most advanced and configurable (stand alone) Rack, but when deployed with a full suite of Supermicro Server Hardware solutions the user will enjoy unprecedented optimization and performance. 2012 4 4 4 4
