Dell Technologies has upgraded the performance of Dell PowerEdge servers and simplified the deployment and convenience of cloud services and edge workloads.

Dell announced on the 16th two new servers for cloud service providers (CSPs) and two new products with compact configurations for edge workloads.

The new products Dell has added to its PowerEdge server portfolio are designed with efficient configurations to enable CSPs of various sizes, as well as small businesses providing edge data services, to simplify infrastructure operations.

In addition, next-generation technologies have been applied to achieve enhanced performance, making it easy to handle a wide range of workloads.

The Dell PowerEdge R670 CSP Edition and Dell PowerEdge R770 CSP Edition servers provide the optimized performance required for CSP enterprises to run high-density, scale-out cloud workloads such as virtualization and data analytics.

R670 CSP Edition and R770 CSP Customers adopting the product can utilize the 'Dell Early Access Program' to review the product's design in advance and immediately expand their operating environment starting from the service launch date.

The two new models unveiled this time are designed with Dell Technologies' Smart Cooling technology, making them energy-efficient and capable of intelligently adapting to changing environments. They are ideal for professional data centers, featuring front I/O with optimized cold aisles and a compact form factor that allows for flexible configuration, making them easy to deploy and service.

The PowerEdge R670 CSP Edition and R770 CSP Edition are the industry's first to feature Intel® Xeon® 6 Efficient core processors, delivering up to 2.3 times better performance per rack compared to the previous generation. Equipped with Dell Open Server Manager based on OpenBMC™, it simplifies management in an open ecosystem for large-scale heterogeneous environments.

With this CSP Edition server, Dell introduces the 'Data Center-Modular Hardware System (DC-MHS)' architecture to its PowerEdge portfolio for the first time. The DC-MHS architecture supports easier integration of servers into existing infrastructure by standardizing servers and improving design and customer choice.

DC-MHS, part of the Open Compute Project, is an initiative in which six companies, including Dell and Intel, collaborate to redesign hardware technology to enhance interoperability across data center, edge, and enterprise infrastructure.

The Dell PowerEdge T160 and Dell PowerEdge R260 are available in a compact size suitable for small businesses and remote offices requiring powerful, high-density server configurations.

The stackable T160, which is 42% the size of a standard server and takes up to half the physical footprint, reduces carbon emissions by increasing the use of sustainable materials, including an unpainted metal chassis, and improves power efficiency by up to 23% compared to the previous generation. The R260 also offers high utility by reducing the physical footprint by 24%.

Both servers are equipped with Intel Xeon E-2400 processors, delivering double the performance of the previous generation. The T160 is ideal for organizations looking to perform real-time data processing by deploying in close proximity to edge environments. The R260 reduces latency by up to 50%, making it suitable for virtualization deployments close to the edge. Equipped with a filter bezel to ensure stable operation even in harsh environments, it protects internal hardware from dust and lubricants and guarantees optimal performance and sound insulation by not obstructing airflow.

"There is a growing demand to replace servers with the latest technology to run computing-intensive workloads while reducing power consumption and managing carbon emissions," said Kim Kyung-jin, General Manager of Dell Technologies Korea. "The Dell PowerEdge portfolio embodies Dell's experience, having played a pivotal role in IT infrastructure technology for over 30 years. By supporting workloads across the edge, core data center, and cloud, Dell helps customers effectively respond to continuously evolving business needs."

The Dell PowerEdge R670 CSP Edition and R770 CSP Edition will be released to select cloud service providers in July, followed by full official sales. The Dell PowerEdge T160 and R260 are scheduled to be released worldwide, including in Korea, in May.
