Jakarta, OprekPC - Dell proclaim the launch of two new servers designed to reduce power consumption and provide increased employment and performance-per-watt for enterprise customers dramatically.
Dell PowerEdge 2970 servers and Dell PowerEdge Energy Smart 2970 will be the first server from major OEM vendors in the market equipped with Dual Dynamic Power Management feature ready to support the performance of servers with quad-core processors and optimized power management. Both servers are designed to accommodate several generations of AMD Opteron processors, providing an easy upgrade option
to the server using quad-core processors and enable customers to increase computing capacity, and consolidate and implement a virtualized environment without the need to change their data center infrastructure.
Dell PowerEdge ™ 2970 server is designed to save power up to 34% and resulted in improved performance-per-watt at 105% compared with Dell servers that use previous-generation dual-core processors.
Dell PowerEdge 2970 servers and Dell PowerEdge Energy Smart 2970 has features innovative design, technology-based standards and in line with Dell's commitment to uniformity of hardware. With Dell OpenManage systems management software ™ newest and strong integration with devices from third-party software, customers can simplify operations with a flexible management solution in the entire life cycle of the server.
In a news release received OprekPC editorial last Friday, Megawaty Khie, Country Manager of Dell Indonesia said, "Customers are constantly faced with limited infrastructure and life-cycle costs of their IT. We are committed to assist with a complete offering that reduces total cost of ownership (TCO) through virtualization, energy efficiency and accelerating the adoption of multi-core systems. Dell PowerEdge 2970 servers and Dell PowerEdge Energy Smart 2970 provides significant advantages to meet customer needs in terms of power consumption and cooling, while maintaining our commitment to reduce complexity and lower costs overall life-cycle through a simplified upgrade path in implementing platform -platform multi-core architecture or platform without creating a closed (proprietary) in disguise. "
Dell PowerEdge 2970 server maximizes the balance between performance, energy efficiency and price. Servers are also designed to excel in database applications, messaging and network infrastructure and virtualized IT environments. Features of Dell PowerEdge 2970 server include:
• Features uniformity for generation Dell servers-9, including layout design and specification of behavior, which helps minimize the workload in maintaining and servicing to Dell PowerEdge servers.
• AMD Direct Connect Architecture which helps eliminate the bottlenecks due to the use of front-side bus architecture of traditional for certain applications and workload
• Hard disk type of SAS for reliability and better data transmission.
• PCI-Express I / O to generate interconnect Ethernet, RAID, InfiniBand and Fibre Channel high-performance and help protect investment in technologies in the future.
• TCP / IP offload engine designed to provide greater performance for PowerEdge servers running Windows Server ™ 2003 SP1, with traffic moving TCP / IP from the host processor to an integrated NIC processor.
• Features Dual Dymanic new Power Management is ready to support performance and optimized power management for server systems with Quad Core processors.
While the Dell PowerEdge Energy Smart servers in 2970 to help customers reduce power consumption and reduce overall operating costs. Server Dell PowerEdge Energy Smart 2970 can provide improved performance-per-watt by 25% with power consumption 21% lower compared with Dell PowerEdge servers 2970 standard. This fixes various power saving hundreds of dollars per server every year or millions of dollars per year for implementation in large-sized data centers. Smaller energy consumption is increasing server density in data centers by implementing four Dell PowerEdge Energy Smart servers within the "power envelope" that currently can only accommodate three Dell PowerEdge 2970 server standard. The features that have included:
• Technology fan with low airflow.
• high-efficiency power supply.
• Processor low voltage / high-efficiency.
• BIOS and unique component specifications that are integrated at the plant designed to produce efficiency and better air flow.
Dell PowerEdge 2970 server is now available to Dell customers worldwide. SedangkanDell PowerEdge Energy Smart 2970 will be available within a few weeks.
