When we ran our OLTP database workload on the Dell EMC PowerEdge R650 server-based vSAN cluster, we saw significantly better performance for the Dell EMC PowerEdge R650 solution powered by 3rd Generation Intel Xeon Scalable processors versus the older solutions. The latest-generation servers delivered 1.96 times the orders per minute (OPM) of the previous-generation PowerEdge R640 solution and 5.02 times the OPM of the older PowerEdge R630 solution. Based on these outputs, a vSAN cluster of latest-generation PowerEdge R650 servers with 3rd Generation Intel Xeon Scalable processors could help organizations handle more ecommerce orders now and in the future.
