Product Description
PRIMERGY RX900 S2 is a new x86 based 8-socket rack server, designed for mission-critical back-end services, scale-up corporate workloads and high performance database processing. It constitutes a highly scalable, next-generation Intel Xeon processor E7-8850 based server that significantly extends the economic advantages of x86 industry standard scale-up solutions. It scales the usage patterns for single standard operating system deployment to new frontiers far beyond the 4 socket standard x86 server class. PRIMERGY RX900 S2 provides extreme scalability as regards the processing performance (80 cores), memory expandability and its aggregated peak I/O bandwidth of more than 100 Gigabyte/s with 16x PCIe slots and 2x 10 GbE + 6x 1 GbE onboard. It scales up linearly for I/O, memory and CPUs inside the 8 U rack system unit without the need for infrastructure changes. Very large corporate databases and heavy load transactional processing applications, where response time and throughput is paramount, will benefit best from the platform's efficient scalability and high I/O bandwidth. Likewise, corporate SAP/ERP, Decision Support services and Business Intelligence solutions, where performance for time-to-results constitutes the business critical value, will profit from its enormous processing power.
