The Dell EMC PowerEdge server-based solution consists of pools of compute, storage, and networking resources which are managed through a single point of rack management. The nodes in the rack are R740xd 2U servers handling compute and storage functions, while R640 1U servers are handling the control functions, as assigned by the dedicated set of management nodes.
