The VxRail system is assembled with proven server-node hardware that Dell Technologies has integrated, tested, and validated as a complete solution. VxRail systems use either Intel Xeon Scalable family processors or AMD EPYC processors. The number of cores and memory capacity are different for each VxRail model.
Each server node includes the following technology:

VxRail systems built on the latest generation of Dell PowerEdge servers deliver the performance and reliability that customers need for the widest range of workloads. All include full life cycle management from a single point of support. In short, VxRail is the fastest and easiest way to transform infrastructure. A lot of work and expertise goes into engineering a high-performance and reliable HCI solution, and the work does not stop after the initial deployment. Continuous validation is needed to keep the system running smoothly through software updates and node additions. As a turnkey, pre-integrated, tested, and validated HCI solution, VxRail can be quickly deployed, easily distributed, and relied on to increase the predictability, availability, and performance of the IT environment.
VxRail systems on next-generation servers include multiple purpose-built platforms with build-to-order configurations. Configurations support a wide range of customer use cases, including graphics-intensive VDI, big data and analytics, high-performance computing, remote office, and more. With more processor options, a greater variety of NVMe drives, additional network connectivity options, and robust GPU and DPU accelerator expansion, customers can now more closely match a VxRail to their workload requirements. No over provisioning here: buy what is needed when it is needed.
