PRODUCT OVERVIEW:
Whether you've got data-demanding applications, are deploying a private cloud, or are using virtualization to consolidate your data center or develop a robust data recovery plan, the Intel® Xeon® processor 7500 series, with Next-Generation Intel® Microarchitecture (Nehalem), expands server capabilities with world-record-breaking performance.
ANALYST REPORT:
Principled Technologies sought out to see how many Dell PowerEdge 2650s can be consolidated onto a single PowerEdge R805 with a Dell PowerVault MD1000 attached? We defined a consolidation methodology, which we detail later in this report; conducted multiple rounds of testing; and analyzed the results.
TEST RESULTS:
This white paper documents the performance of mission-critical database workloads running on servers equipped with the Intel Xeon processor 7500 series and VMware vSphere 4.
WHITE PAPER:
Virtualization on industry-standard servers has transformed IT service delivery, enabling companies to dramatically consolidate infrastructure, reduce costs, and much more. Read this paper to learn about the features and benefits of Vmware vSphere and the Intel Xeon processor 7500 series-based servers.
CASE STUDY:
Boston Medical Center (BMC) needed to find ways to lower its operational costs to work within smaller budgets despite exploding data volumes, a sprawling server farm and 6,000 desktop users who needed access to clinical applications for patient care. The hospital pursued a data center virtualization strategy after partnering with Dell.
WEBCAST:
Altiris solutions and PCs with Intel® vPro™ technology allow IT organizations to perform faster, more automated, and more specifically defined configuration and management tasks in a network environment.
WHITE PAPER:
Virtualization is more than a technology. It is a way of thinking about problems that allow us to go beyond the physical limitations normally associated with entire classes of hardware, from servers to storage. Attaining the maximum benefits of virtualization, however, requires a plan and constant monitoring to ensure peak performance.
WHITE PAPER:
Consolidating and/or virtualizing SQL Server databases can improve data center efficiency and enable you to tackle database sprawl, achieve high availability, and boost agility. Beginning with the value 4 processor (4P) capabilities of the AMD Opteron™ 6000 Series platform, the AMD/Dell/Microsoft combination can help produce substantial savings.
DATA SHEET:
The leading-edge Intel® Core™ i7 processor delivers unmatched technology for intelligent performance on the most demanding tasks, such as creating digital video and playing intense games.
