The Dell PowerEdge R900 is a cutting edge 4U enterprise level rack server designed and optimized to provide outstanding virtualization performance.
It features Intel Xeon® 7400 series 6-core and 4-core processor technology, increased memory and I/O capacities over the previous model, broad scalability, and an embedded hypervisor for simplified virtualization. Choose between VMware® ESXi 3.5 or Citrix® XenServer and then power up the server and begin migration of virtual machines within as little as minutes with factory-integrated hypervisors.
Helpful features include:
Ideal as a RISC server - With up to 24 cores, the PowerEdge R900 moves well into the enterprise class of RISC/UNIX proprietary-systems.
