Enhanced messaging, calendar and contacts

Microsoft® Exchange 2013 and the Microsoft Outlook® 2013 client are key elements of the industry’s most comprehensive UC&C solution. Together, they enable email, calendar, contacts and voicemail on a wide range of phones, tablets, notebooks and desktop devices with enhanced security for mobility initiatives.

Application requirements

While Exchange has evolved to enable very large mailboxes, many legacy deployments are not capable of handling the demands placed on processor, network and storage systems. Modern Exchange environments require in-memory cache for faster response times, flexible memory capacities for a range of implementations and a streamlined architecture to support Microsoft’s managed availability strategy. Access to large local storage delivers capacity and performance advantages.

• Improvedavailabilityandresponsivenesswithagent-free,automatedandembeddedsystemsmanagementthatcanmonitorperformanceofthemostcriticalcomponentsaswellasoverallsystemperformance.

Ideal for single server or clustered Exchange environments

For Exchange environments that utilize local storage, the PowerEdge R730xd delivers massive internal storage capacity in just 2U of rack space. Combined with Dell Storage MD1400 DAS storage arrays, the R730xd can offer even more mailbox capacity to deliver the most economical solution for Exchange deployments.

Ideal for shared storage environments

Ideal for remote and small offices

Convergd infrastructure servers, such as the PowerEdge FC630, M630, rack-optimized 1U R630 or 2U R730, provide the performance, memory density, flexible I/O and networking options that shared-storage Exchange environments demand. When combined with Dell Storage Fibre Channel or iSCSI SAN arrays, they can deliver the response times and scalability needed for large scale communications infrastructures.

Designed for single-server small and medium-sized businesses, the PowerEdge T630 tower server delivers the storage scalability and performance that growing Exchange environments require.

For multiple server environments, the compact PowerEdge VRTX integrated solutions platform with up to four M520, M620, M630 or M820 server nodes and extensive internal storage capacity delivers data center capabilities with the ease and automation that remote or branch offices require.

R820

Dell 4-socket servers represent the cutting-edge of business processing applications to handle your most critical data — from the flagship expandability and reliability of the PowerEdge R920, to the density of the 2U rack-optimized R820 or M820. Achieve additional acceleration of OLAP with SanDisk DAS Cache for local or DAS storage, or OLTP workloads using Fluid Cache for SAN in shared storage environments.

Recommended for core data center infrastructure

VRTX

Ideal for remote or small offices

With massive shared storage, a large amount of flash and support for M520, M620, M630 and M820 compute nodes, the PowerEdge VRTX converged infrastructure platform, designed for office environments, drives all classes of applications from front-end web tech to backend database.

For single-server deployments, the T630 delivers the performance and capacity needed to drive your business forward.

Ideal for midrange environments

Dell’s 2-socket lineup for business processing is nearly as capable as the 4-socket lineup. PowerEdge R730, R630, FC630 and M630 deliver performance and memory density well suited for clustered database environments, such as Oracle® Real Application Clusters (Oracle RAC), while the R730xd, with its large internal storage capacity, is the perfect choice for a self-contained database server.

• EnhancedmanagementforLinuxuserswiththeDellOpenManageNagios®plug-in.

Recommended for compute nodes

For the greatest levels of density, the 1U 2-socket R630 is a great building block for commercial HPC deployments due to its compute density, large memory footprint, RAS features and SSD support.

For the supercomputing centers for which blades are the preferred computational form factor because of the ultra-efficient converged infrastructure, the M630 blade server delivers high memory and flexible I/O combined with power and cooling and management efficiencies.

Another great building block in commercial HPC deployments, the 2U R730 provides a broad support for acceleration technology, expandability with PCI Express® (PCIe) slots, large compute power and memory and very fast storage.

Ideal for midrange environments

The 2-socket, 2U R730 or 1U R630 servers are ideal for managing the entire cluster thanks to a very high processor core count, high availability, flexible, low-latency I/O options and robust peripheral support with PCIe expansion slots. These nodes can also be effectively used as login nodes and storage gateways, which can utilize SanDisk DAS Cache for even greater storage performance.

Virtualizationandcloudcomputing

Recommended for virtual and private cloud data centers

For space-constrained environments, the ultra-dense 1U, 2-socket R630 can deliver high memory and extreme I/O performance with all-flash configurations in half the space of comparable servers. The FC630 offers a denser footprint with added cooling efficiencies.

VRTX

Recommended for server and desktop virtualization

With up to 1.5TB of memory and I/O optimized for virtual desktop infrastructure, the PowerEdge R730 rack server delivers optimal VDI scalability. Expanded GPU options support graphics-intensive VDI implementations, such as CAD/CAM for better performance. When populated with PowerEdge M520, M620, M630 or M820 blade nodes, PowerEdge VRTX becomes a versatile and powerful platform for server or desktop virtualization.

Recommended for virtual software-defined storage

Compatible with software-defined storage solutions, such as Microsoft Storage Spaces, VMware Virtual SAN or OpenStack™ Ceph, this server is a great virtualized storage platform. When combined with Dell Storage MD1400 Series DAS storage arrays, it can create an even larger pool of cost-efficient virtualized storage.

For large scale virtualization that demands the highest performance and density of VMs per computation node, the 4-socket PowerEdge R920 is the best choice. Ideal for random I/O workloads, the R920 delivers unmatched I/O performance and throughput for mission-critical applications.
