For your quest for hardware that can quickly handle a large number of database transactions, Intel Optane DC persistent memory provides a new path. We found that using Intel Optane DC persistent memory in Dell EMC PowerEdge R740xd servers improved SQL Server 2019 transactional database performance compared to using NVMe SSDs or SATA SSDs, which means that it can help organizations improve data center efficiency. Don’t let the newness scare you: Configuring the latest Dell EMC PowerEdge R740xd servers with new Intel Optane DC persistent memory could be just the solution that gives you the database performance you expect from your modern data center.
