Gain Efficiency in Your Data Center

At Dell, when we talk about performance in the context of power and cooling, we are talking about getting the greatest performance per watt out of the equipment in your data center. We also mean gaining efficiency by consolidating and virtualizing your data center:

  • Reduce your footprint — By reducing the number of physical machines and consolidating applications into virtual servers, you free up rack space, resulting in a reduction in x86 infrastructure.
  • Manage more effectively — With factory-integrated, pretested Dell Business-Ready Configurations, you save time because the solutions are already tested. And with designed-in management capabilities — hypervisors and other management technologies — that are embedded in the server, a level of complexity is removed.
  • Reduce power and cooling needs — Fewer physical servers mean less power and less cooling needed. Plus, with Dell's latest generation systems, you get optimized performance per watt — the newer Intel® processors require less power for more performance.

Read about how Dell became the first in the industry to achieve 80 PLUS Titanium-certification for a server power supply.
