A PRINCIPLED TECHNOLOGIES TEST SUMMARY
Commissioned by Dell Inc.
ADVANTAGES OF DELL SERVER SOLUTIONS POWERED BY THE NEW
INTEL XEON PROCESSOR E5-2600V2 SERIES
The new Intel Ivy Bridge processors, known as the Intel Xeon processor E5-
2600v2 series, offer the latest advances in processing power, including up to 12 cores,
support for up to 1,866MHz and up to 64GB DIMMs, and added security features
including Intel Secure Key and Intel OS Guard. Dell engineering and software unleash the
power of this new processor series with 12G PowerEdge server solutions. In the
Principled Technologies labs, we tested some of the new capabilities of these processors
in Dell solutions through two real-world scenarios. First, using blade servers, we
demonstrated the performance benefit of an Intel Xeon processor E5-2600v2 series-
powered Dell PowerEdge™ M620 server and storage solution compared to a previous-
generation Intel Xeon processor E5-2600 series-powered HP solution. Additional
memory slots in the Dell PowerEdge M620 server and Dell-patented Fault Resilient
Memory (FRM) technology work with the new Reliable Memory Technology feature in
VMware vSphere 5.5 virtualized environments to deliver additional protection for the
workload while still providing more memory that the HP solution. In the second
scenario, we demonstrated how a Dell solution can take advantage of the additional
compute power from the new Intel Xeon processor E5-2600v2 series to perform source-
based deduplication and reduce added stress on network and storage systems.

Xeon processor E5-2600v2 series
More memory, more performance, and better protection with Dell and Intel
Larger amounts of memory often contribute to greater application
performance. In our blade server scenario, the Dell PowerEdge M620 provided 50
percent more memory slots than the HP ProLiant BL460c Gen8 – 24 slots compared to
16. In addition, Dell Fault Resilient Memory technology provides memory error
protection when coupled with Reliable Memory Technology of VMware vSphere 5.5 and
creates a hypervisor-enabled fail-safe platform for your virtualized critical applications.
With the Dell solution, you can enable FRM and still have 12.5 percent more memory,
including enhanced memory protection for the hypervisor, than the HP solution.
In our testing, the Intel Xeon processor E5-2660v2-based Dell solution,
consisting of a Dell PowerEdge M620 with memory error protection as enabled by FRM
technology and a Dell EqualLogic™ PS-M4110 storage array, delivered 182.2 percent
better virtualized database performance than the HP solution, consisting of the
previous-generation Intel Xeon processor E5-2640-based HP ProLiant BL460c Gen8
without memory protection and an HP D2200sb Storage Blade (see Figure 1).

M620 solution delivered 182.2
percent more transactions per
second than the HP solution
did.

Xeon processor E5-2600v2 series
Dell and Intel combine to provide quick backups with no performance hit
In the past, companies may have been reticent to use source-based
deduplication as part of their backup strategy as deduplication overhead could put
additional load on the processor and other resources. The high-performance Intel Xeon
processor E5-2697v2 easily handled the deduplication load with the Dell backup solution
we tested. We were able to run source-based deduplication backups with minimal
impact on application performance. In our scenario, the Dell PowerEdge R720xd running
NetVault Backup software with Rapid Data Access (RDA) plug-in, working with the Dell
DR4100 Disk Backup Appliance, provided 69.5 percent faster backups than a traditional
backup method. What’s more, the Intel Xeon processor E5-2600v2 series-powered Dell
backup solution reduced network utilization on the PowerEdge R720xd application
server by 70.5 percent using NetVault Backup software’s source-based deduplication
and DR4100 Disk Backup Appliance-enabled RDA feature compared to a traditional
backup without source-based deduplication (see Figure 2).

IN CONCLUSION
When considering your server upgrade strategy, it is important to consider
everything you expect your server to do. Your server should deliver maximum
performance for your critical applications, safeguard your hardware to reduce the
chance of failure, and provide the power to back up data while running your workloads.
In our tests, we found that the Intel Xeon processor E5-2600v2 series-powered Dell
PowerEdge servers did just that through a combination of new processor technology
and hardware optimizations built into the Dell servers. We found that the Intel Xeon
processor E5-2660v2-based Dell PowerEdge M620 server and storage solution had more
memory slots compared to the Intel Xeon E5-2640-based HP ProLiant BL460c Gen8
server and storage solution we tested. The Dell solution delivered greater database
performance while simultaneously protecting the server memory from error with Dell
Fault Resilient Memory and VMware Reliable Memory Technology in a vSphere 5.5
virtualized environment. In our backup tests, the new Intel Xeon E5-2697v2 processors
were easily able to power NetVault Backup source-based deduplication and RDA plug-in
on a Dell PowerEdge R720xd, relieving the load on the network and storage subsystems,
without any noticeable effect on the workloads we ran.
As these results show, Dell 12G PowerEdge servers and the various Dell
hardware and software technologies we tested can enable you to harness the full power
of the new Intel Xeon processor E5-2600v2.

Advantages of Dell server solutions powered by the new Intel Xeon processor E5-2600v2 series

  • 1. AUGUST 2013 A PRINCIPLED TECHNOLOGIES TEST SUMMARY Commissioned by Dell Inc. ADVANTAGES OF DELL SERVER SOLUTIONS POWERED BY THE NEW INTEL XEON PROCESSOR E5-2600V2 SERIES The new Intel Ivy Bridge processors, known as the Intel Xeon processor E5- 2600v2 series, offer the latest advances in processing power, including up to 12 cores, support for up to 1,866MHz and up to 64GB DIMMs, and added security features including Intel Secure Key and Intel OS Guard. Dell engineering and software unleash the power of this new processor series with 12G PowerEdge server solutions. In the Principled Technologies labs, we tested some of the new capabilities of these processors in Dell solutions through two real-world scenarios. First, using blade servers, we demonstrated the performance benefit of an Intel Xeon processor E5-2600v2 series- powered Dell PowerEdge™ M620 server and storage solution compared to a previous- generation Intel Xeon processor E5-2600 series-powered HP solution. Additional memory slots in the Dell PowerEdge M620 server and Dell-patented Fault Resilient Memory (FRM) technology work with the new Reliable Memory Technology feature in VMware vSphere 5.5 virtualized environments to deliver additional protection for the workload while still providing more memory that the HP solution. In the second scenario, we demonstrated how a Dell solution can take advantage of the additional compute power from the new Intel Xeon processor E5-2600v2 series to perform source- based deduplication and reduce added stress on network and storage systems.

A Principled Technologies test summary 2Advantages of Dell server solutions powered by the new Intel Xeon processor E5-2600v2 series More memory, more performance, and better protection with Dell and Intel Larger amounts of memory often contribute to greater application performance. In our blade server scenario, the Dell PowerEdge M620 provided 50 percent more memory slots than the HP ProLiant BL460c Gen8 – 24 slots compared to 16. In addition, Dell Fault Resilient Memory technology provides memory error protection when coupled with Reliable Memory Technology of VMware vSphere 5.5 and creates a hypervisor-enabled fail-safe platform for your virtualized critical applications. With the Dell solution, you can enable FRM and still have 12.5 percent more memory, including enhanced memory protection for the hypervisor, than the HP solution. In our testing, the Intel Xeon processor E5-2660v2-based Dell solution, consisting of a Dell PowerEdge M620 with memory error protection as enabled by FRM technology and a Dell EqualLogic™ PS-M4110 storage array, delivered 182.2 percent better virtualized database performance than the HP solution, consisting of the previous-generation Intel Xeon processor E5-2640-based HP ProLiant BL460c Gen8 without memory protection and an HP D2200sb Storage Blade (see Figure 1).

A Principled Technologies test summary 3Advantages of Dell server solutions powered by the new Intel Xeon processor E5-2600v2 series Dell and Intel combine to provide quick backups with no performance hit In the past, companies may have been reticent to use source-based deduplication as part of their backup strategy as deduplication overhead could put additional load on the processor and other resources. The high-performance Intel Xeon processor E5-2697v2 easily handled the deduplication load with the Dell backup solution we tested. We were able to run source-based deduplication backups with minimal impact on application performance. In our scenario, the Dell PowerEdge R720xd running NetVault Backup software with Rapid Data Access (RDA) plug-in, working with the Dell DR4100 Disk Backup Appliance, provided 69.5 percent faster backups than a traditional backup method. What’s more, the Intel Xeon processor E5-2600v2 series-powered Dell backup solution reduced network utilization on the PowerEdge R720xd application server by 70.5 percent using NetVault Backup software’s source-based deduplication and DR4100 Disk Backup Appliance-enabled RDA feature compared to a traditional backup without source-based deduplication (see Figure 2).

  • 4. A Principled Technologies test summary 4Advantages of Dell server solutions powered by the new Intel Xeon processor E5-2600v2 series IN CONCLUSION When considering your server upgrade strategy, it is important to consider everything you expect your server to do. Your server should deliver maximum performance for your critical applications, safeguard your hardware to reduce the chance of failure, and provide the power to back up data while running your workloads. In our tests, we found that the Intel Xeon processor E5-2600v2 series-powered Dell PowerEdge servers did just that through a combination of new processor technology and hardware optimizations built into the Dell servers. We found that the Intel Xeon processor E5-2660v2-based Dell PowerEdge M620 server and storage solution had more memory slots compared to the Intel Xeon E5-2640-based HP ProLiant BL460c Gen8 server and storage solution we tested. The Dell solution delivered greater database performance while simultaneously protecting the server memory from error with Dell Fault Resilient Memory and VMware Reliable Memory Technology in a vSphere 5.5 virtualized environment. In our backup tests, the new Intel Xeon E5-2697v2 processors were easily able to power NetVault Backup source-based deduplication and RDA plug-in on a Dell PowerEdge R720xd, relieving the load on the network and storage subsystems, without any noticeable effect on the workloads we ran. As these results show, Dell 12G PowerEdge servers and the various Dell hardware and software technologies we tested can enable you to harness the full power of the new Intel Xeon processor E5-2600v2.
