Lenovo SR868 servers provide these features:
Speed and Reliability
The Lenovo ThinkSystem SR868 is designed for exceptional
price/performance with the speed and reliability you require today
and the scalability and versatility you’ll need tomorrow. The SR868
is engineered to run a wide range of solutions, from business
consolidation to database virtualization, data analytics, and
scientific/technical.
With XClarity integration, management is simple and standardized,
reducing provisioning time up to 95% from manual operations.
ThinkShield protects your business with each offering, from
development through disposal.
Versatility
The agile design of the ThinkSystem SR868 offers considerable
configuration flexibility. It can scale from two to four powerful
second-generation Intel Xeon Processor Scalable family CPUs via a
customer installable mezzanine tray that enables a quick and easy
“pay-as-you-grow” upgrade for processors and memory — and delivers
up to a 36% total performance improvement over the first
generation.
Workload-Optimized Support
Intel Optane DC Persistent Memory delivers a new, flexible tier of
memory designed specifically for data center workloads that offers
an unprecedented combination of high capacity, affordability, and
persistence. This technology will have a significant impact on
real-world data center operations: reduction of restart times from
minutes down to seconds, 1.2x virtual machine density, dramatically
improved data replication with 14x lower latency and 14x higher
IOPS, and greater security for persistent data built into hardware.
