We test the conventional wisdom that 2U servers have lower power consumption than their 1U counterparts using a pair of Dell EMC PowerEdge servers
IBM and NVIDIA are teaming up to bring the latest NVIDIA Tesla V100 Volta generation GPUs to the IBM cloud and POWER9 on-premise solutions for deep learning / AI teams
Red Hat buys CoreOS for $250 million in a major kubernetes container ecosystem play by picking up one of the leading orchestration solutions for enterprises
We install an NVIDIA GeForce GTX series GPU in a Supermicro AMD EPYC system and investigate whether pinning Tensorflow and Zcash mining containers to specific NUMA nodes has an impact on performance.
We replaced NAND based NVMe drives with Intel Optane drives in the STH hosting cluster for a day and saw some dramatic performance differences
We pull a network snippet from around 1000 crypto miners mining Ethereum, Zcash, Zclassic, Bitcoin-Gold, Monero, Aeon, Digibyte and a number of other coins to see how much bandwidth mining uses
We test the Dell EMC PowerEdge R640 and show why it is a case study in the excellence of 1U dual socket mainstream server design
The new Micron 5200 series of enterprise SATA SSDs offer up to 7.68TB of capacity using the legacy 6.0gbps storage interface found in virtually every server
Intel has been rolling out 64-layer 3D NAND products for some time. Perhaps the last major rollout we will see is the Intel 7 Series SSDs, featuring the Intel 760p series. The Intel SSD 760P series is a TLC-based NAND SSD with significantly more performance, lower power consumption and higher capacities than Intel's previous generation NVMe m.2 consumer SSDs.
