GPU database acceleration and ML DELL EMC PowerEdge R940xa 4U Rack Server High Quality Public Address System
POWEREDGE R940xa
Extreme acceleration for Artificial Intelligence and Machine
Learning
Rapidly transform data insights into business outcomes with the
PowerEdge R940xa. The R940xa accelerates applications with powerful
four-socket performance in a scalable 4U design.
Accelerate application performance
The PowerEdge R940xa drives GPU database acceleration to deliver
real-time decisions for compute-intensive applications. By
combining four CPUs with four GPUs, the R940xa delivers consistent
high performance for demanding applications. The R940xa allows you
to dynamically scale capacity and performance as your
business-critical workloads evolve including:
• Maximizing performance with 2nd Generation Intel® Xeon® Scalable
processors, up to 112 cores.
• Choosing up to 4 double-width GPUs or up to 4 double-width or 8
single-width FPGAs for application acceleration.
• Supporting large data sets with up to 48 DIMMs (24 of which can
be PMems) and up to 15.36TB of memory.
• Scaling on-premise capacity with up to 32 x. 2.5” HDDs/SSDs and
up to 4 direct-attached NVMe drives.
• Expanding quickly with up to 12 PCIe slots for external device
connections.
Streamline operations with Dell EMC OpenManage
The Dell EMC OpenManage™ portfolio helps simplify IT operations
across your data center, delivering intelligent, automated
management of routine tasks. Combined with unique agent-free
management capabilities, the R940xa is simply managed, freeing up
time for high profile projects.
• Utilize a variety of OpenManage integrations and connections to
take advantage of your existing IT management platform.
• Take advantage of QuickSync 2 capabilities and gain access to
your servers easily through your phone or tablet.
Deliver comprehensive data center protection with built-in security
Every PowerEdge server is made with a cyber-resilient architecture,
delivering security into all parts of a server’s life cycle. The
R940xa uses these new security features so you can reliably and
securely deliver the right data to where your customers are, no
matter where they are. Dell EMC considers each part of system
security, from design to end of life, to ensure trust and deliver
worry-free systems. Rely on a secure component supply chain to
ensure protection from factory to the data center.
• Maintain data safety with cryptographically signed firmware
packages and Secure Boot.
• Protect your server from malicious malware with iDRAC9 Server
Lockdown mode (requires Enterprise or Datacenter license)
• Wipe all data from storage media including hard drives, SSDs and
system memory quickly and securely with System Erase.
