Product description

Effective Management of Business Data
• Compared to a desktop computer, the Intel Xeon processor E3 is engineered and validated to run 24/7. It allows you to protect, manage, process and distribute your business data more effectively and reliably. With the performance and capacity of an Intel Xeon processor-based server, you can:
  • Establish a centralized database for your customer, product and financial information. You'll be able to manage vital data more efficiently and effectively to ensure it is accurate, up-to-date, protected and accessible to all authorized users anytime, anywhere.
  • Create an in-house network for e-mails, shared calendars, conferencing and online document sharing to improve communication and collaboration among your employees.
  • Host a corporate website or improve performance and uptime for your existing website, so you can connect more effectively with your customers and extend your business reach.
  • Take advantage of cloud services to extend your IT capabilities, while keeping sensitive data and applications on-premise, where you have the necessary control to ensure performance, reliability, security and compliance.

Business Protection
• Advanced reliability and security features help to keep your data and business safe.
  • 24/7 Dependability. Intel Xeon processor E3 v2 server is designed for continuous operation to keep your business up and running at all times. Business-class features like redundant power supplies and quiet chassis options increase system reliability.
  • Advanced Data Protection. ECC memory automatically detects and corrects up to 99.988 percent of memory errors for improved data integrity and system uptime. This technology is standard in all Intel Xeon processor-based servers.
  • Redundant Hard Drives. Intel Rapid Storage technology* 11.x (Intel RST) protects your valuable business data by seamlessly storing copies on one or more additional hard drives, thus preventing data loss or system downtime in the event of a hard drive failure.
  • Advanced Data and System Security. Intel OS Guard, Intel Secure Key and Intel Advanced Encryption Standard New Instructions** (Intel AES-NI) work together to protect your server, applications and data from today's increasingly sophisticated attacks. You can implement pervasive encryption and other strong security protections throughout your business, while providing easy access for authorized users and maintaining rapid application response times. ¹

  Please Note:

  *Intel Rapid Storage technology requires the computer to have an Intel RST-enabled Intel chipset, RAID controller in the BIOS enabled and the Intel RST software driver installed.
  **Intel AES-NI requires a computer system with an AES-NI-enabled processor as well as non-Intel software to execute the instructions in the correct sequence. AES-NI is available on Intel Xeon processors. close

Business Responsiveness
• Enjoy faster and more reliable access to information and collaborative tools.
  • High Performance for Business-Critical Applications. Supports more employees and delivers faster response times with up to 2.7x more performance than a three-year-old desktop system.*
  • Peak Performance When You Need It Most. Supports Intel Turbo Boost technology 2.0** that delivers more responsive performance even at peak processor loads and reduces power consumption for lighter loads.
  • Better Support for Business Growth. Maintain performance levels as you continue to add new users and applications with dramatic improvements in memory, I/O and storage throughput, compared to previous generation servers. ²

  Please Note:

  *Averaged normalized performance of 3 small and medium-sized business workloads (e-mail, database and web) on an Intel Xeon processor is 172% faster than on an Intel Core 2 processor.
  **Intel Turbo Boost technology 2.0 requires a system with Intel Turbo Boost technology capability. close

A Smart Investment
• Get the performance, capacity and reliability your business needs, at prices you can afford.
  • Simple and Affordable Implementation. Advanced server features deliver high value with easy deployment and costs that are comparable to high-end desktop systems.
  • Low Operating Costs. Energy-efficient 22nm Intel Microarchitecture includes an array of enhancements that improve performance while reducing power consumption. The Intel Xeon processor E3-1200 v2 delivers up to 32 percent more energy-efficient performance than the previous generation and low-power server options can provide even greater energy savings.
  • Simple, Cost-effective Growth. Expandable storage options make it easy to support increasing storage requirements as your business grows and technologies evolve. You can also use RAID (redundant array of independent disks) technology to increase storage performance, protect your valuable data and perform cost-effective data backups.
  • Flexible and Reliable Computing. Intel Xeon processor-based servers are engineered and validated to operate with server operating systems. This helps to improve reliability and interoperability with business-critical applications, so you can add and upgrade applications with greater confidence.
  • Flexible, Efficient, Low-Cost Management. Reduce the cost and complexity of managing your server with Intel Active Management technology 8.0.5 Powerful remote monitoring, software updating, diagnostics and repair capabilities make it easy to keep your server running at peak efficiency from a centralized location-whether you rely on an in-house staff or a managed service provider.
