Product Description
The PRIMERGY BX960 S1 server blade enables the use of the next generation Intel® Xeon® processors with 8 cores and two threads. In conjunction with the QuickPath architecture and the on-chip memory controllers, these processors enable a greatly increased Server Blade performance in contrast to the predecessor generations. Four of these processors can be used in the BX960 S1 Server Blade, together with up to 32 DDR3 RDIMM main memory modules and two Dual-Channel Intel 82599 based 10 Gigabit Ethernet controllers onboard. Up to two SSD data media and four Mezzanine I/O cards complete this full-height server blade (single width). The perfect alignment of processor performance, main memory capacity and I/O bandwidth makes the PRIMERGY BX960 S1 ideal, on the one hand as a consolidation platform with virtualization solutions, on the other hand, as a server which efficiently and reliably meets the high-level requirements for database management systems for medium and large-sized databases.
