Dell expands its 13th generation PowerEdge servers including the PowerEdge R930, the company's most powerful server designed for demanding enterprise applications such as in-memory databases, customer relationship management (CRM) and enterprise resource planning (ERP). Dell says that the new PowerEdge R930 rack server can help maximize application performance by 22 percent than its previous four-socket server on the industry ERP sales & distribution benchmark. When paired with Dell Fluid Cache for SAN, organizations can further boost transactional performance and accommodate more virtual machines.

The PowerEdge R930 features the future Intel Xeon processor E7-8800/4800 v3 product families, 6TB of memory in 96 DIMMs, 24 internal hard drives and support for up to eight PowerEdge Express Flash NVMe PCIe SSDs.

Dell was the first to ship NVMe PCIe SSDs and it’s now offering an even higher capacity with the new 3.2TB PCIe SSD. Dell PowerEdge Express Flash NVMe PCIe SSDs deliver front loading, hot pluggable 2.5-inch devices, providing up to 10 times more input /output operations per second (IOPS) over traditional SSDs.

Dell's customers can also leverage a mix of HDDs and SAS SSDs with SanDisk DAS Cache to reduce the price by 23 percent compared to an all SSD configuration.

IT administrators can also receive higher levels of automation and monitor and remediate data center situations from a hand-held device anywhere in the world with Dell’s recently updated OpenManage systems management portfolio.

For customers who want to gain business insight in real-time by leveraging SAP HANA into their IT environment with little or no configuration, Dell offers Dell Engineered Solutions for SAP HANA. This appliance will be updated to include SAP HANA pre-integrated and pre-configured on Dell PowerEdge R930 servers.

For customers who are experiencing bottlenecks in OLTP performance, the Dell Acceleration Appliance for Databases (DAAD) built with Dell PowerEdge R930 servers will offer acceleration for any database infrastructure.

For customers who want a quick path to standing up Oracle 12c, Dell is updating its Dell Integrated Systems for Oracle Database with the PowerEdge R930. This pre-engineered, pre-configured and pre-racked combination of DAAD and the PowerEdge R930 servers will help customers migrate to and accelerate current Oracle 12c environments.

In addition to the PowerEdge R930 rack server, Dell is updating its PowerEdge VRTX and PowerEdge M1000e converged platforms, and introducing the PowerEdge FC830 and the PowerEdge M830 blade server as part of Dell’s 13th generation of PowerEdge servers.

The PowerEdge FC830 is a full-width, half-height four-socket server block for the PowerEdge FX architecture that helps organizations configure workloads using modular building blocks of IT resources. The PowerEdge M830 blade server is a full height, four-socket blade server.

Both the PowerEdge FC830 and PowerEdge M830 feature the future Intel Xeon processor E5-4600 v3 product family and include Dell’s systems management capabilities.
