DELL PowerEdge VRTX (“Vertex”)– a remote office converged hardware solution. I just came back from attending DELL PowerEdge VRTX launching event. What make me so interesting about this piece of solution is a combination of servers, shared storage, I/O in the forms of PCIe slots and networking into 5U tower chasis.
Maximum configuration that this hardware can support:-
- up to 4 server nodes (blades)
- up to 25 X 2.5” hot swap drives
- up to 3TB of RAM
- 64 processing cores
- 48 TB of storage
- 8 X 1 Gbps Ethernet port pass through module
- Redundant power supply
I managed to take some picture on this hardware:-
Well, it would be a great hardware solution for Microsoft Hyper-V virtualization deployment. For more information, please visit this link and check out the youtube video:
