Introducing the Dell PowerEdge R810, 4-socket Enterprise Server

In this article, we will tell you about the 4-processor Dell PowerEdge R810 server, which has a complex modular layout that allows you to easily replace a failed block entirely. This server uses FlexMem Bridge technology, thanks to which all the server's memory slots become available to the customer, even if two processors out of four are installed. And, of course, the proprietary iDRAC control system and all those little things that classify such servers as elite. In previous reviews, the ...

2U high-density server review: 4 nodes, 8 AMD processors, 512 GB of memory in one case

A $ 30K 56kg machine is 4 servers in one case, each with 2 AMD Opteron 6174 processors. Thus, the highest density is achieved in a 2U case - 96 physical cores and 512GB memory, plus each node has a built-in 40G InfiniBand controller, making it an ideal machine for math calculations and HPC applications. We'll look at how it all works in our article. Today, the main tendency in server equipment is to increase the computational density of equipment, and the reasons for this are quite ...

Review of Wexler GPR109 server platform, 2-way 1U machine with PCI Express Gold-Fingers technology

Unique Intel-based 1U server platform that implements new expansion technologies. The motherboard installed in it allows you to divide the existing 32 PCI Express Gen2 lanes in various combinations, and a large selection of risers will make it possible to use cards with PCI-X, PCI-32 and PCI-64 interfaces. RTX technology allows you to use the entire height of the server chassis, and in fact, install any expansion cards of any size - at least two-slot GP-GPU cards. These servers are built ...

Comparison of two HP ProLiant DL380 G5 and G6 series servers

Today, when choosing a server based on Intel processors, many are wondering whether it is worth overpaying for new items built on the Nehalem architecture, or taking a server of the previous generation, especially with a higher processor frequency. We tested two popular HP Proliant DL380 G5 and G6 server models and compared them not only in speed, but also in design. Almost a year has passed since Intel presented its new Nehalem architecture on the server market, but at the same time, the ...

NVMEoF: how does the fastest data protocol work?

In recent years, we have seen an increase in the performance of data storage technologies, which eventually reached the physical limits due to outdated data exchange protocols in data centers. Despite the use of 100GbE and new networking technologies such as InfiniBand, these legacy protocols continue to slow down the performance of flash drives because they are isolated within devices. In this article, we will talk about the non-Volatile Memory Express (NVMe) specification. Next, we'll focus on ...

Neuromorphic future: an attempt to put the brain in the server

In this article, we will talk about alternatives to following Moore's law, and which technologies can be used in data centers of the future. Until today, processor manufacturers have been forced to follow Moore's law in order to produce a new generation of chips with higher performance and lower power consumption. In our time, the picture of the world has changed. Research around the world suggests a wide variety of architectures that are more productive and consume less energy. In this ...
