“Supermicro is committed to supporting the U.S. federal government in powering its next generation of technical initiatives,” said Liang in a statement. “Through this initiative, Supermicro will supply U.S. federal government agencies with full data center IT solutions that are manufactured and tested from our manufacturing facilities in Silicon Valley, California.
