A Principled Technologies test report 2

Consolidating older database servers with the Intel processor-powered

Dell PowerEdge R730xd using SanDisk DAS Cache

SATA SSDs and one used PCIe SSDs. Both configurations of the Dell PowerEdge server

ran local versions of Windows Server 2012 R2 and SQL Server 2014.

We learned that the mixed-use SATA SSD configuration of the Dell PowerEdge

R730xd could replace six of the tested legacy servers, while decreasing response time by

59 percent on each of the individual database applications. The PCIe SSD configuration

of the Dell PowerEdge R730xd could also replace six legacy servers, but decreased

latency even further resulting on lower average response time- by as much as 75

percent on each of database applications we tested. (We present our detailed results in

Appendix C.)

If you upgraded to the new Intel processor-powered Dell PowerEdge R730xd

running SQL Server 2014, you could consolidate multiple older servers and improve

application performance by delivering much faster response time. You could also

experience the savings that typically come with running fewer servers—from reduced

power consumption, cabling, rack space, and so forth. You would also be making an

investment in your company’s future, because the storage flexibility of the R730xd

means that your server can grow along with your needs.

STORAGE FLEXIBILITY IN 2U

Dell’s new 2U server designed with storage flexibility and agility in mind. With up to 24

DDR4 DIMMs of memory and with several storage variations, including 26 2.5-inch

drives, and the hybrid R730xd chassis, which mixes high-capacity 3.5-inch disks and

high-speed 1.8-inch SATA SSDs, you can tailor the server to your specific performance

needs and make changes as your storage needs change. It might be that three SSDs are

sufficient to handle your current database server load, but a year from now your needs

will increase dramatically. With the PowerEdge R730xd, you can configure your drives

the way that makes sense today and add more SATA SSDs and/or PCIe SSDs when the

time comes.

The model we tested had 8 DDR4 DIMMs of memory and 26 2.5-inch drives.

Figure 1 shows how we configured the PowerEdge R730xd storage drives in our testing.

Because of the great flexibility of this server, this is one of many possible configurations

and could be customized according to your workloads and requirements.
