AMD Ryzen-based web hosting services are now commonplace, so it is perhaps not too surprising therefore that given ECC support and high core count, another manufacturer has decided to go all in and launched entry-level Ryzen servers. 

Giga Computing, a subsidiary of popular motherboard manufacturer Gigabyte, unleashed four of these new servers, all in 1U format with one shorter version for edge computing.
