These processors are designed to help IT address the ever-growing demand for increased performance, agility, operational efficiency, scale-on demand and security throughout their server, storage and network infrastructure while minimising their total cost of ownership.

If you're upgrading from the past generation of E5 processors (v3 range), you'll notice major advances in processor technology in the resulting in up to 47% faster performance than the previous generation of servers powered by the v3 range.

The new v4 range of processors offers extra cores, a smattering of architectural refinements and performance advancements such as up to 55MB of last-level cache, support for 2400MHz DDR4 memory and up to 2kb of data L1 cache per processing core.

The powered by Intel^® Xeon^® processor E5-2600 v4 product family offers enterprises, cloud service providers and telecommunication service provider's high performance and value, while accelerating their move toward the next-generation efficiencies of software defined infrastructure.

Built for Virtualisation

Configured with the E5-2600 v4 processor and offering plenty of high-performance memory, the is built for virtualisation.

Intel^® Virtual Machine Control Structure (VMCS) shadowing extends root virtual machine monitor (VMM)-like privileges to a guest VMM to provide more flexible support for legacy code and deep security monitoring. Additional virtualisation enhancements enable fewer and faster transitions to the VMM through Posted Interrupts and other innovations, so more compute cycles can be devoted to virtual machine performance.

Support for Page Modification Logging has also been added to enable high-end availability for virtual machines while reducing performance overhead.

Process Data Faster with DDR4 Memory

Configurable with DDR4 memory, the Broadberry GPU Server FT77CB7079 uses the latest enterprise-grade memory technology which offers 50% more bandwidth and 40% better energy efficiency than servers configured with DDR3 ram, resulting in more speed, more bandwidth and better efficiency computing.

Typically a server's greatest limitation is memory, especially in the memory-dependant applications the Broadberry GPU Server FT77CB7079 has been designed to excel in such as cloud-computing, virtualisation and HPC. The Broadberry GPU Server FT77CB7079 overcomes this traditional problem by doubling memory capacity of servers built on DDR3 memory in the same amount of DIMM slots making the Broadberry GPU Server FT77CB7079 a super-dense server platform ready to perform in the most demanding applications.

DDR4 memory also builds on the Broadberry GPU Server FT77CB7079 green credentials as power savings reach up to 40% over older generation memory.

The added benefit of hot-swap hard drives means that the Broadberry GPU Server FT77CB7079 can have any of its 8 hot-swap hard drives removed during maintenance whilst the system is running completely un-interrupted.
