SiFive introduced the BigSky SF-2U870 data-center development platform at an event held alongside Hot Chips. The system is a rackable server occupying two rack units, or 2U, and uses the RISC-V processor architecture.

SiFive described the product as the first enterprise-grade, rackable 2U RISC-V server. It was developed in collaboration with hyperscale customers and ecosystem partners.

The company planned to demonstrate the platform running multiple server workloads. The announcement identifies it as a development platform, not a disclosed production cluster or generally deployed cloud service, and the supplied excerpt does not provide processor counts, memory capacity, power draw, pricing, or shipment timing.
