H3C Superdome Flex Server

Description

H3C Superdome Flex Server

In an increasingly demanding mission-critical computing environment, are you looking for a server product that meets the needs of mission-critical processing with high reliability, high scalability, and high performance, while also being open, standardized, and with rich application scenarios? Designed to address this need, the H3C Superdome Flex is a powerful server platform based on the latest Intel ® Xeon ® Scalable processors that support non-volatile memory for business-critical processing. The H3C Superdome Flex server features enterprise-grade RAS features and end-to-end security to provide the most reliable protection for your most important business-critical workloads. The H3C Superdome Flex adopts the RAS design specifications of traditional small computers and the modular physical partition expansion architecture, with every 4 processor modules forming a chassis, and the system seamlessly scales from 4 processors to 32 processors in increments of each chassis. Therefore, no matter the size of the key business, you can start with a small-scale configuration and choose to scale horizontally or vertically at any time according to your actual needs, significantly reducing the acquisition and use costs, and is suitable for the industry’s most popular application scenarios: Unix-to-Linux migration (U2L), high-performance computing (HPC) and SAP HANA. H3C Superdome Flex supports Redfish’s open system management API and OneView management framework, which significantly reduces the complexity of system management and simplifies the user O&M process. H3C Superdome Flex and H<>C Group’s service portfolio can help customers make quick decisions and take action based on real-time data analysis by building an ecosystem with partners, so as to instantly turn the value of data into enterprise benefits and competitive advantages.

Mission-critical x86 servers

Powerful and unprecedented—turn real-time data into business decisions in no time

The H3C Superdome Flex server is highly scalable, scaling up to 32 processors (896 processor cores) in a single operating system.

H3C Superdome Flex is optimized for future memory-driven computing scenarios, and the memory capacity of a single machine can be expanded from 768GB to 48TB, providing more than 60 times the memory expansion space. With a large-scale, ultra-low-latency, and high-bandwidth interconnect architecture, H3C Superdome Flex ensures that system performance grows linearly as the size of the system configuration grows.

H3C Superdome Flex can be optionally configured with Application Tuner Express (ATX) software, which can optimize the memory access efficiency of the application software under the Non-Uniform Memory Access (NUMA) architecture server, which greatly improves the overall performance of the H3C Superdome Flex server.

Elastic scaling, unlimited freedom—adapt to changing business needs

With the modular design of 4 processors and the galvanically isolated physical partition technology, one H3C Superdome Flex can be flexibly divided into multiple physical partitions at any time as needed, and multiple physical partitions can also be combined into a larger partition or a single system as needed. Each partition can be configured with different memory capacity, processor type, and different types and quantities of PCIe cards to meet the workload requirements of each partition.

No-compromise high availability—the most reliable protection for mission-critical workloads

The H3C Superdome Flex server provides the proven RAS capabilities (reliability, availability, and maintainability) of a small form factor and provides system availability capabilities that are not available on ordinary x86 standard platforms. It has reached the industry’s highest level of AL4 in the IDC server availability evaluation, fully meeting the requirements of any critical business for continuous operation time.

H3C Superdome Flex provides a proactive troubleshooting analysis engine that predicts hardware failures and initiates self-healing without human involvement, greatly reducing O&M workload and complexity.

With the “Firmware First” scheme, hardware-level errors, including memory errors, can be controlled to ensure the system runs smoothly before any interruptions occur at the operating system level.

With Serviceguard for Linux (SGLX) high-availability clustering and disaster recovery solutions, H3C Superdome Flex ensures business continuity by preventing total IT infrastructure disruption and application service disruption in physical servers or virtual environments over any distance.
