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.
WHITE PAPER:
Consolidating and/or virtualizing SQL Server databases can improve data center efficiency and enable you to tackle database sprawl, achieve high availability, and boost agility. Beginning with the value 4 processor (4P) capabilities of the AMD Opteron™ 6000 Series platform, the AMD/Dell/Microsoft combination can help produce substantial savings.
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:
This paper describes game-changing innovations in SQL Server® 2008 R2, including self-service business intelligence (BI), server manageability, complex event processing (CEP), and Master Data Services.
WHITE PAPER:
Virtualization is more than a technology. It is a way of thinking about problems that allow us to go beyond the physical limitations normally associated with entire classes of hardware, from servers to storage. Attaining the maximum benefits of virtualization, however, requires a plan and constant monitoring to ensure peak performance.
WHITE PAPER:
Large-scale consolidation using Dell PowerEdge servers with the Intel Xeon 7500 series processors and Hyper-V can multiply the benefits of virtualization, while significantly reducing associated costs. Read this white paper to learn more.
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:
The objective of this white paper is to identify the consolidation factor for an Oracle database running Online Transaction Processing (OLTP) workloads on legacy 9th Generation PowerEdge 2950 2U 2 socket to the new 11G PowerEdge R810 2U 4/2 socket servers.
WHITE PAPER:
Intel® Xeon® processor 7500 series-based servers offer new value for virtualizing SAP solutions with Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 Hyper-V. Read this paper to learn how Intel benefits SAP ERP.
