Conclusion: The real-world benefits of fast networking
High-performing server networking enables servers and other devices on a network to communicate and share data and resources. As our world grows increasingly interconnected and organizations offer more and more services remotely, fast networking becomes more important for enterprises in every industry.
Let’s consider healthcare. Hospital systems, pharmaceutical companies, and doctors’ offices rely heavily on fast and consistent networking for everyday functions. Being able to transfer patient health records and other large files—such as CT scans, X-rays, and MRIs—between facilities quickly and easily is vital. When a provider needs a real-time update on patient status or new imaging, seconds matter, and a constant and stable connection can help save lives. The growth of telemedicine and remote patient monitoring also require high-performing backend networking solutions. Faster networking can allow specialists to connect and help patients more quickly.
Financial organizations also rely on speedy networking for critical everyday work. High-speed networks for trading provide real-time access to market data and can allow traders and decision-makers in financial institutions to make informed choices and execute trades more quickly. On a consumer level, fast networking lets users access their banking and credit card accounts without delays. A widespread networking issue could prevent users from being able to log into their accounts, creating enormous dissatisfaction and potentially the loss of customers for that bank.18
These two examples illustrate something that is true in every industry: Fast networking helps enterprises deliver services and accomplish critical everyday work, improving the experience of every person who interacts with their technology. In tests with the iPerf tool using multiple TCP streams, a server solution with a 100Gb Broadcom 57508 NIC delivered higher and more consistent throughput rates than a solution with four 25Gb NICs. By selecting Dell PowerEdge R750 servers with 100Gb Broadcom 57508 NICs over the servers with four-NIC solution we tested, you can offer your organization speedier, more consistent networking performance.Opt for modern 100Gb Broadcom 57508 NICs in your Dell PowerEdge R750 servers ...

Companies increasingly turn to big data applications to solve business problems such as understanding customer habits and behavior, maintaining electronic health records, and detecting fraud. In a 2022 survey of executives, 97.0 percent had invested in big data initiatives, and 73.7 percent said their organizations had appointed a Chief Data Officer (CDO), up from 12 percent in 2012.
With so much data at play, storage becomes an essential consideration for companies as they select hardware platforms to run their vital workloads. Two primary requirements for storage are fast performance and redundancy. Companies seek storage that can quickly put actionable insights into the hands of decision makers. At the same time, it is a fact of life that storage media occasionally fails, and no company wants to risk the potentially very large expense of losing vital business data.
In our testing with a disk-intensive TeraSort big data workload, we found that a current-generation Dell PowerEdge R750 server with a Broadcom-based Dell PERC 11 RAID controller with NVMe SSDs outperformed a previous-generation PowerEdge R740 server with a Dell PERC 10 RAID controller. The newer PowerEdge R750 solution completed the workload in 13.9 percent less time and with 16.3 percent better throughput, indicating that it could speed the delivery of insights to decision makers. With its PERC 11 RAID controller, it also offers RAID support for today’s speedy NVMe SSDs. Data-driven organizations must weigh the cost savings of putting off purchases of newer servers against the benefits of investing in those same newer, more powerful servers with RAID support for NVMe drives. Our testing shows that with the Dell PowerEdge R750 server with a Broadcom technology-based Dell PERC 11 RAID controller, buyers need not choose between redundancy and high performance.Upgrading to Dell PowerEdge R750 servers featuring Dell PowerEdge RAID Contro...

Organizations don’t have to choose between saving money, doing more work, and using less energy; the new 16th Generation Dell PowerEdge R760 servers with Broadcom NICs do all three. In our hands-on testing, the new 16th Generation Dell PowerEdge R760 server featuring a Broadcom NIC offered 166.1 percent more Ops/s per US dollar, 129.5 percent more Ops/s, and 24.2 percent better performance per watt than the 14th Generation Dell PowerEdge R740 server. This means the PowerEdge R760 with a Broadcom NIC did over twice as much work at a lower cost with nearly 25 percent better power efficiency than the PowerEdge R740. When compared to the 15th Generation Dell PowerEdge R750, the PowerEdge R760 processed 29.8 percent more Ops/s at a lower cost in terms of Ops/s per US dollar and offered 3.8 percent better performance per watt.
In addition to lowering cooling costs and carbon emissions, choosing the latest-generation servers can help businesses lower other operating costs, such as maintenance and security compliance. Because the latest-generation Dell PowerEdge R760 servers offer more compute capacity, fewer servers can do more work, potentially reducing licensing costs and the physical footprint of a data center. Newer servers often feature the most recent manageability and security features, which can make it easier for businesses to manage their servers and protect their data. By choosing servers with better performance, businesses can reduce the response time of their systems and provide a better user experience.
Increasingly, businesses are under pressure to reduce the energy consumption and cost of their data centers while maintaining or increasing performance. Key web technologies such as Redis can offer businesses a competitive edge, but they also require a large amount of data processing. Businesses can meet these challenges with Dell PowerEdge R760 servers with Broadcom NICs that offer better costefficiency, performance, and power-efficiency.The 16th Generation Dell PowerEdge R760 server with Broadcom NICs: Save money...

Principled Technologies examined the performance improvements and cost savings associated with upgrading to the 16th Generation Dell PowerEdge R7625 for machine learning algorithms
Conclusion
As data proliferates and the sizes of databases grow, the potential to unlock valuable insights from them becomes increasingly dependent on fast architectures that can handle compute-intensive machine learning workloads such as k-means clustering and Bayesian inference. By upgrading to the latest servers, organizations can scale their processing power to meet the growing demands of their databases.
Larger databases and more powerful algorithms have the potential to give organizations a competitive edge. Faster servers can improve the accuracy of data-driven decisions by allowing organizations to use more complex algorithms and update ML models more frequently. To consider just two examples, improved performance could allow an e-commerce company to make better recommendations to customers and a financial services company to assess risks more accurately.
When we compared the machine learning performance of a 16G Dell PowerEdge R7625 server powered by 4th Gen AMD EPYC 64-core processors with Broadcom NICs and PERC 11 storage controllers to a previous-generation PowerEdge server, we found performance enhancements in terms of throughput and speed, whether running k-means clustering or Bayesian workloads. These findings suggest that organizations that rely on machine learning algorithms might gain performance advantages by upgrading to the latest generation of these Dell servers.Data proliferation and machine learning: The case for upgrading your servers ...

Conclusion
Companies increasingly turn to big data applications to solve business problems such as understanding customer habits and behavior, maintaining electronic health records, and detecting fraud. In a 2022 survey of executives, 97.0 percent had invested in big data initiatives, and 73.7 percent said their organizations had appointed a Chief Data Officer (CDO), up from 12 percent in 2012.
With so much data at play, storage becomes an essential consideration for companies as they select hardware platforms to run their vital workloads. Two primary requirements for storage are fast performance and redundancy. Companies seek storage that can quickly put actionable insights into the hands of decision makers. At the same time, it is a fact of life that storage media occasionally fails, and no company wants to risk the potentially very large expense of losing vital business data.
In our testing with a disk-intensive TeraSort big data workload, we found that a current-generation Dell PowerEdge R750 server with a Broadcom-based Dell PERC 11 RAID controller with NVMe SSDs outperformed a previous-generation PowerEdge R740 server with a Dell PERC 10 RAID controller. The newer PowerEdge R750 solution completed the workload in 13.9 percent less time and with 16.3 percent better throughput, indicating that it could speed the delivery of insights to decision makers. With its PERC 11 RAID controller, it also offers RAID support for today’s speedy NVMe SSDs. Data-driven organizations must weigh the cost savings of putting off purchases of newer servers against the benefits of investing in those same newer, more powerful servers with RAID support for NVMe drives. Our testing shows that with the Dell PowerEdge R750 server with a Broadcom technology-based Dell PERC 11 RAID controller, buyers need not choose between redundancy and high performance.Upgrading to Dell PowerEdge R750 servers featuring Dell PowerEdge RAID Contro...

Principled Technologies testing showed that a 16th Generation Dell PowerEdge R760 server featuring a Broadcom BCM57508-P2100G NIC delivered all three vs. previous‑generation PowerEdge servers
Conclusion
Organizations don’t have to choose between saving money, doing more work, and using less energy; the new 16th Generation Dell PowerEdge R760 servers with Broadcom NICs do all three. In our hands-on testing, the new 16th Generation Dell PowerEdge R760 server featuring a Broadcom NIC offered 166.1 percent more Ops/s per US dollar, 129.5 percent more Ops/s, and 24.2 percent better performance per watt than the 14th Generation Dell PowerEdge R740 server. This means the PowerEdge R760 with a Broadcom NIC did over twice as much work at a lower cost with nearly 25 percent better power efficiency than the PowerEdge R740. When compared to the 15th Generation Dell PowerEdge R750, the PowerEdge R760 processed 29.8 percent more Ops/s at a lower cost in terms of Ops/s per US dollar and offered 3.8 percent better performance per watt.
In addition to lowering cooling costs and carbon emissions, choosing the latest-generation servers can help businesses lower other operating costs, such as maintenance and security compliance. Because the latest-generation Dell PowerEdge R760 servers offer more compute capacity, fewer servers can do more work, potentially reducing licensing costs and the physical footprint of a data center. Newer servers often feature the most recent manageability and security features, which can make it easier for businesses to manage their servers and protect their data. By choosing servers with better performance, businesses can reduce the response time of their systems and provide a better user experience.
Increasingly, businesses are under pressure to reduce the energy consumption and cost of their data centers while maintaining or increasing performance. Key web technologies such as Redis can offer businesses a competitive edge, but they also require a large amount of data processing. Businesses can meet these challenges with Dell PowerEdge R760 servers with Broadcom NICs that offer better costefficiency, performance, and power-efficiency.The 16th Generation Dell PowerEdge R760 server with Broadcom NICs: Save money...

Three AMD EPYC processor-based two-processor solutions outshined comparable Intel Xeon Scalable processor-based solutions by handling more Redis workload transactions and requests while consuming less power
Conclusion
Performance and energy efficiency are significant factors in processor selection for servers running data-intensive workloads, such as Redis. We compared the Redis performance and energy consumption of a server cluster in three AMD EPYC two-processor configurations against that of a server cluster in two Intel Xeon Scalable two-processor configurations. In each of our three test scenarios, the server cluster backed by AMD EPYC processors outperformed the server cluster backed by Intel Xeon Scalable processors. In addition, one of the AMD EPYC processor-based clusters consumed 20 percent less power than its Intel Xeon Scalable processor-based counterpart. Combining these measurements gave us power efficiency metrics that demonstrate how valuable AMD EPYC processor-based servers could be—you could see better performance per watt with these AMD EPYC processor-based server clusters and potentially get more from your Redis or other data intensive applications and workloads while reducing data center power costs.Realize 2.1X the performance with 20% less power with AMD EPYC processor-back...
