“[Y]ou could replace many legacy servers with fewer of the PowerEdge R740xd.”

Companies whose decisions are driven by data analysis could see improvements in the time it takes to query large sets of data by refreshing their servers to the new Dell EMC PowerEdge R740xd.

In the Principled Technologies datacenter, PT compared three configurations of the PowerEdge R740xd to the legacy PowerEdge R720xd, and found that the new solution could do the work of up to eight legacy servers in a fraction of the time.

With traditional hard drives, the PowerEdge R740xd performed three times the database work of the legacy solution. With SATA SSDs, the new solution performed six times the work. Finally, with NVMe SSDs, the PowerEdge R740xd performed eight times the work of the legacy solution.

According to the report, “[the] results suggest you could replace many legacy servers with fewer of the PowerEdge R740xd.”
