Dell Tech Analysis Sample

Executive Summary

Dell Inc. (Dell) commissioned Principled Technologies (PT) to measure the SPECjbb2005 performance per watt of the following dual-socket blade servers:

• Dell PowerEdge M600
• HP BladeSystem c-Class
• IBM BladeCenter H Type 8852

In this section, we present the best results for each server. For complete details of the performance of each Java Virtual Machine (JVM) by the Test results section.

Figure 1 presents the performance/watt for each of the blade server systems by configuration. Higher results show better system performance/watt. We calculate performance/watt by dividing the SPECjbb2005 result by the average power consumption in watts during the period the system achieved peak performance.....
