ASSESSMENT TOOL:
Developed with key learnings from Intel IT's experience in justifying server refresh internally, this tool allows you to enter data about your existing environment and evaluate the benefits of replacing it with the latest generation of Intel-based servers.
TECHNICAL ARTICLE:
Read about Intel IT's testing of the Intel Xeon processor 5600 series that delivered up to 17.3X throughput improvements compared with single-core Intel Xeon processors and up to a 15:1 consolidation ratio by replacing servers based on single-core Intel Xeon processors.
WHITE PAPER:
The Intel® Xeon® processor family provides a reliable, available, and serviceable infrastructure which works seamlessly with Windows Server 2008 R2. By leveraging the power of Intel technology, businesses can enhance their private cloud infrastructure to help IT administrators and end-users receive an efficient, secure, and simplified experience.
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.
WHITE PAPER:
This document is intended as a technical guide for developers and system administrators that want to understand the precise details of how Oracle® Solaris and Oracle’s Sun x86 systems using Intel® Xeon® processor 5600 and 7500 series can improve your enterprise application solution environment.
WHITE PAPER:
Virtualization requires the consideration of two factors: how many virtual machines a single server can run and what level of performance these VMs can provide. This study compares and contrasts the performance of two generations of PowerEdge 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.
WHITE PAPER:
Intel conducted tests on Web servers serving encypted data to quantify the benefits of AES-NI and found that AES-NI reduced computational overhead of encyrption by 50 percent. Continue reading this paper to learn more about the tests and results.
PRODUCT OVERVIEW:
Read this solution brief to learn how to drive down cost of ownership and speed up return on investment with SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 from Novell and the new generation on Intel Xeon processors.
