Dell unmasks new line of PowerEdge servers, precision workstations and other features

R710 PowerEdge Servers

To cope up with increasing demands of users, Dell has come up with new Dell PowerEdge servers and new Dell Precision workstations. Moreover, the company’s new Dell PowerEdge R310 caters to midsize business networking. They have also included new attributes in Dell Lifecycle Controller and Dell Management Console (DMC).

Dell has released new system management features in addition to new Dell PowerEdge servers to cater to the advancing technology demands of huge enterprises, small-to-medium-sized businesses and public organizations, thereby offering them flexible and reliable solutions. Dell is launching 9 PowerEdge blade, rack-mount and tower servers and three Dell Precision tower workstations upgraded with the new Intel Xeon 5600 ‘Westmere-EP’ chain of processors plus new improvements to Dell Lifecycle Controller and Dell Management Console (DMC). These hardware and software solutions provide users with exceptional management facilities while offering an active IT platform for virtualization, server consolidation, mission critical business and database applications.

Dell has constructed its 11th generation of PowerEdge servers to be more receptive and ‘intelligent’ with the addition of the industry’s only en suite system management, Lifecycle Controller. The new Lifecycle Controller 1.3 may aid in easing and speeding the time taken for demanding IT jobs like system deployment, system updates, workload migration hardware configuration and diagnostics from the desktop to the data center.

Every Dell PowerEdge server is available with the newest version of Dell Management Console (DMC), which supplies IT administrators a united view of their IT infrastructure. The latest offering provides a new power monitoring attribute that delivers bigger familiarity of server power consumption, thereby enabling more knowledgeable decisions which could result in lower energy use and cost savings. Moreover, it supplies ‘Out of Band’ server BIOS and firmware updating that can decrease administration time and enhance flexibility.

Brad Anderson, senior vice president, Dell’s Business Product Group, commented, “IT organizations are under increasing pressure to improve business productivity while prioritizing technology spend within decreasing budgets. Dell’s 11th generation Dell PowerEdge servers help customers spend more time on creating business value and less on planning, deploying and maintaining IT with customer inspired design and advanced systems management. With massive performance gains from greater memory and processing power in our updated servers and built in reliability to minimize single points of failure, Dell is helping companies achieve better business results.”

Dell is rolling out new Intel Xeon 5600 series processors across its complete line of two-socket PowerEdge servers, counting two blade servers like M710, M610, four rack servers such as R710, R610, R510, R410 and three tower servers namely T710, T610, T410. Users can get more computing done with entrenched virtualization hypervisors, generous memory footprints and I/O facilities on Dell PowerEdge 11th generation servers to combine the application workloads of numerous servers onto one. The servers may aid in enhancing effectiveness via Dell Energy Smart Design augments. Bolster system and data security with Intel Advanced Encryption Standard New Instructions (AES-NI) and Trusted Execution Technology (TXT) can assist in guarding against budding software attacks. AES-NI enables broad use of encryption throughout the data center and enables the encryption and decryption procedures to be rather capable for users.

Early April, Dell is uncloaking PowerEdge R310, 1-socket 1U rack server, to cater to the different requirements of small businesses as well as big enterprises. The PowerEdge R310 along with the Intel Xeon 3400 series processors is perfect for apps like Microsoft Windows Small Business Server, Business Center Essentials, Microsoft SQL Workgroup/Standard, Oracle 11g Standard, VMware, Active Directory and SharePoint. The R310 also benefits from simplified systems management using Dell’s implanted Lifecycle Controller along with high-tech serviceability and diagnostics with optional interactive LCD. The server provides RAID configurations to aid in augmenting data reliability and/or increase I/O. Diverse options in running systems for flexibility for varied computing workloads are available. Energy-optimized technologies counting lower wattage power supplies are present.

Dell is introducing three new workstations shortly namely the Dell Precision T7500, T5500 and T3500 models. Crafted and optimized for 3D design and animation, engineering, oil and gas exploration, scientific visualization and defense professionals who are looking for standard-based solutions that facilitate bigger elasticity, enhanced performance and the capability to aid their business to flourish.
