- “CEOs don’t wake up in the middle of the night worrying about what the servers in their data centers are doing, and they shouldn’t have to. Dell is creating technology that greatly simplifies IT throughout its entire lifecycle to make our customers more efficient. The new Dell 11th generation PowerEdge servers were designed to lead the industry in price/performance, virtualization and power/thermal efficiency to reduce complexity and cost and let our customers focus on creating business value.” -- Brad Anderson, Senior Vice President, Enterprise Product Group, Dell.
- “Getting maximum utilization of existing data centers can drive constraints placed by overall infrastructure power and cooling demands, limiting business agility. Dell‘s 11th generation PowerEdge servers with the new Intel Xeon processor 5500 series give companies unprecedented performance and intelligent power consumption that can dynamically adapt to application workloads and business demands. With this refresh, customers can enhance business agility, extend the life of their data centers, and have additional room for growth.” -- Kirk Skaugen, Vice President and General Manager, Server Platforms Group, Intel.
- “The Dell PowerEdge R610 server and PowerEdge M610 blade server will help us reduce overall power consumption and get the most out of what we do use. These systems give us five times the processing capacity for the same amount of power as servers we acquired only three years ago.” -- Gary Jung, Manager, Scientific Cluster Support Group, IT division, UC Berkeley Laboratory.
- “The sheer volume of transactions we need to process every day, makes it necessary that our servers are highly reliable and optimized for high performance computing. Dell's new 11th generation PowerEdge servers meet our performance goals, are highly scalable and easier to manage. It made it an easy choice for our data center.”-- Anna Ewing, Chief Information Officer at NASDAQ OMX.
