Dell PowerEdge Servers Portfolio Guide 3

PowerEdge servers are customer inspired and purpose built. We spend countless hours listening to customers

and then put our time and expertise into giving you the features you need to accomplish more, improve

eciency, and ensure business continuity. Our latest generation of PowerEdge servers deliver innovations like:

• Express Flash PCIe solid-state drives—oer more transactions per second, resulting in faster interactions

• Agent-free server management—uses the integrated Dell Remote Access Controller (iDRAC) with Lifecycle

Controller, providing signicant reductions in administration time

• The Dell fresh air program—allows servers to run at much higher ambient temperatures, saving tremendous

operational costs

• More widely integrated GPU technology—provides accelerated HPC research with high sustained GFlops

Our latest generation of servers responds to customer needs in the following areas:

• Memory capacity and scalability—much larger memory footprints

• Virtualization performance—more processor cores and denser memory

• Systems management—complete lifecycle management using iDRAC with Lifecycle Controller and

monitoring and update capabilities with OpenManage Essentials

• Energyeciency—comprehensive optimizations, including Dell OpenManage™ Power Center
