Which model Chromebook is best for students and teachers? The longer students must wait for apps or documents to open, the more opportunities there are for distractions like chatting and doodling, and the longer it takes to get learning in the classroom or at home. We put two Chromebook models to the test, and found that the Intel processor-powered HP Chromebook 14 required significantly less waiting than the ARM processor-based model and delivered 89 percent more frames per second. The Intel processor-powered Chromebook also lasted significantly longer without a battery charge while lightly browsing the Internet. Based on our testing, the Intel processor-powered Chromebook is the better choice for schools: students can start learning faster, waste less time waiting, and spend more time learning.

When deciding which tablet your school will invest in, it is essential to view the entire picture—not just initial acquisition costs, but how much it will cost to own over the years. As our cost-of-ownership analysis and IT task testing demonstrates, the Windows 8-based Dell Latitude 10 essentials configuration tablet can provide a school with great savings thanks to its ability to integrate into an existing school environment. Because this tablet supports the SCCM management tool that lets IT staff manage hundreds of devices simultaneously, installing and updating software on a fleet of these tablets can take minutes rather than weeks. This time savings can dramatically increase the number of devices a single IT staff member can manage; in our hypothetical scenario, it doubled this number from 250 Apple iPads to 500 Latitude 10 essentials configuration. Time is money and for schools, money can be tight. Selecting a tablet that can cut management time in half can result in significant savings and enable district IT professionals to focus more time on supporting innovation in learning.Tablets in schools: Dell Latitude 10 essentials configuration with Windows 8 ...

Diving into the world of GenAI has the potential to yield a great many benefits for your organization, but it first requires consideration for how best to implement those GenAI workloads. Whether your AI goals are to create a chatbot for online visitors, generate marketing materials, aid troubleshooting, or something else, implementing an AI solution requires careful planning and decision-making. A major decision is whether to host GenAI in the cloud or keep your data on premises. Traditional on-premises solutions can provide superior security and control, a substantial concern when dealing with large amounts of potentially sensitive data. But will supporting a GenAI solution on site be a drain on an organization’s IT budget?
In our research, we found that the value proposition is just the opposite: Hosting GenAI workloads on premises, either in a traditional Dell solution or using a managed Dell APEX pay-per-use solution, could significantly lower your GenAI costs over 3 years compared to hosting these workloads in the cloud. In fact, we found that a comparable AWS SageMaker solution would cost up to 3.8 times as much and an Azure ML solution would cost up to 3.6 times as much as GenAI on a Dell APEX pay-per-use solution. These results show that organizations looking to implement GenAI and reap the business benefits to come can find many advantages in an on-premises Dell solution, whether they opt to purchase and manage it themselves or choose a subscription-based Dell APEX pay-per-use solution. Choosing an on-premises Dell solution could save your organization significantly over hosting GenAI in the cloud, while giving you control over the security and privacy of your data as well as any updates and changes to the environment, and while ensuring your environment is managed consistently.Investing in GenAI: Cost‑benefit analysis of Dell on‑premises deployments vs....

Three AMD EPYC processor-based two-processor solutions outshined comparable Intel Xeon Scalable processor-based solutions by handling more Redis workload transactions and requests while consuming less power
Conclusion
Performance and energy efficiency are significant factors in processor selection for servers running data-intensive workloads, such as Redis. We compared the Redis performance and energy consumption of a server cluster in three AMD EPYC two-processor configurations against that of a server cluster in two Intel Xeon Scalable two-processor configurations. In each of our three test scenarios, the server cluster backed by AMD EPYC processors outperformed the server cluster backed by Intel Xeon Scalable processors. In addition, one of the AMD EPYC processor-based clusters consumed 20 percent less power than its Intel Xeon Scalable processor-based counterpart. Combining these measurements gave us power efficiency metrics that demonstrate how valuable AMD EPYC processor-based servers could be—you could see better performance per watt with these AMD EPYC processor-based server clusters and potentially get more from your Redis or other data intensive applications and workloads while reducing data center power costs.Realize 2.1X the performance with 20% less power with AMD EPYC processor-back...

We deployed this modern environment, then migrated database VMs from legacy servers and saw performance improvements that support consolidation
Conclusion
If your organization’s transactional databases are running on gear that is several years old, you have much to gain by upgrading to modern servers with new processors and networking components and an OpenShift environment. In our testing, a modern OpenShift environment with a cluster of three Dell PowerEdge R7615 servers with 4th Generation AMD EPYC processors and high-speed 100Gb Broadcom NICs outperformed a legacy environment with MySQL VMs running on a cluster of three Dell PowerEdge R7515 servers with 3rd Generation AMD EPYC processors and 25Gb Broadcom NICs. We also easily migrated a VM from the legacy environment to the modern environment, with only a few steps required to set up and less than ten minutes of hands-on time. The performance advantage of the modern servers would allow a company to reduce the number of servers necessary to perform a given amount of database work, thus lowering operational expenditures such as power and cooling and IT staff time for maintenance. The high-speed 100Gb Broadcom NICs in this solution also give companies better network performance and networking capacity to grow as they embrace emerging technologies such as AI that put great demands on networks.Improve performance and gain room to grow by easily migrating to a modern Ope...

Conclusion
If your company is struggling with underperforming infrastructure, upgrading to 16th Generation Dell PowerEdge servers running VCF 5.1 could be just what you need to handle more database throughput and reduce vSAN latencies. We found that a Dell PowerEdge R760 server cluster running VCF 5.1 processed over 78 percent more TPM and 79 percent more NOPM than a Dell PowerEdge R750 server cluster running VCF 4.5. It’s also worth noting that the PowerEdge R750 cluster bottlenecked on vSAN storage, with max write latency at 8.9ms. For reference, the PowerEdge R760 cluster clocked in at 3.8ms max write latency. This higher latency is due in part to the single disk group per host on the moderately configured PowerEdge R750 cluster, while the better-configured PowerEdge R760 cluster supported four disk groups per host. As an additional benefit to IT admins, we also found that the embedded VMware Aria Operation adapter provided useful infrastructure insights.Upgrade your cloud infrastructure with Dell PowerEdge R760 servers and VMware...

If you use the open-source PostgreSQL database to run your critical business operations, you have many cloud options from which to choose. While many of these instances can do the job, some can deliver stronger performance, which can mean getting a greater return on your cloud investment.
We conducted hands-on testing with the HammerDB TPROC-C benchmark to see how the PostgreSQL performance of Amazon EC2 R7i instances, enabled by 4th Gen Intel Xeon Scalable processors, stacked up to that of R6i instances with previous-generation processors. We learned that small, medium-sized, and large R7i instances with the newer processors delivered better OLTP performance, with improvements as high as 13.8 percent. By choosing the R7i instances, your organization has the potential to support more users, deliver a better experience to those users, and even lower your cloud operating expenditures by requiring fewer instances to get the job done.Open up new possibilities with higher transactional database performance from...

We compared system performance on four ChromeOS devices powered by increasingly powerful Intel processors
Conclusion
AI technology, on ChromeOS devices equipped with powerful Intel processors, could be the steppingstone your district needs to make learning more accessible, increase student engagement, and remove barriers to student success. In our hands-on tests, each step up in the Intel processor upgrade story resulted in quicker open app and tab recoveries after shutdown in a traditional session restore scenario and a session restore scenario featuring AI. Don’t miss this opportunity to help teachers and students reach their potential.
