The PowerEdge R5715 is the second part of Dell’s SMB-focused extension to the 17th Generation PowerEdge family, starting with different priorities than its 1U sibling. Where the R4715 optimizes for compute density and core-per-rack-unit efficiency, the R5715 is built around storage capacity and I/O expandability in a 2U single-socket footprint. Readers coming from our R4715
Dell’s 17th Generation PowerEdge family is already well-established, and with the R4715 and R5715, the lineup now targets the SMB and midmarket segments more intentionally than before. Both servers are single-socket platforms built on the same 5th Generation AMD EPYC foundation as the broader 17th Gen family. They are tuned for organizations where right-sized core
ASRock Rack used NVIDIA GTC 2026 to introduce a broader range of liquid-cooled AI platforms for high-density enterprise and data center deployments. The announcement centered on new systems based on the NVIDIA HGX Rubin NVL8 platform, as well as NVIDIA MGX-based servers designed for the NVIDIA RTX PRO 4500 Blackwell Server Edition and liquid-cooled RTX
AMD and Nutanix have formed a multi-year partnership to create an open, full-stack AI infrastructure platform. This collaboration aims to support agentic AI applications in data centers, hybrid cloud, and edge environments. The agreement seeks to deliver a production-ready, high-performance alternative to integrated AI stacks by using open standards and compatible software frameworks. The partnership
The AI infrastructure market is not moving in a single direction; it is separating into two distinct worlds. On one side are frontier training clusters, built to develop foundation models at a massive scale, tightly coupled to proprietary fabrics and a narrow set of accelerators. The other is the rapidly expanding reality of enterprise inference,
Dell Technologies has introduced the Dell PowerEdge XR9700, a closed-loop, liquid-cooled, fully enclosed rugged server designed to run Cloud RAN and edge AI workloads in unprotected outdoor environments. Engineered for deployment on utility poles, rooftops, and building exteriors, the XR9700 targets dense urban buildouts, remote sites, and space-constrained locations where traditional data center footprints and
Lenovo is expanding its ThinkEdge portfolio with a new wave of AI-enabled systems that bring computing power from centralized data centers into the environments where data is created. The additions include the ThinkEdge SE10n Gen 2, ThinkEdge SE30n Gen 2, ThinkEdge SE60n Gen 2, and the ThinkEdge SE50a, the company’s first industrial all-in-one panel PC.
We recently received Supermicro’s dual-socket Turin-based A+ Server AS-2126HS-TN for review. It’s a 2U platform designed to support extremely high-core-count workloads and to provide flexible PCIe expansion. Built around and supporting dual AMD EPYC 9005 (Turin) and 9004 (Genoa) series processors, the system targets a broad range of enterprise and data center use cases, including
At CES 2026, NVIDIA unveiled the Rubin platform, anchored by the Vera Rubin NVL72 rack-scale system. This is NVIDIA’s third-generation rack-scale architecture, combining six co-designed chips into a single unified system. The platform will be available from partners in the second half of 2026, with all six chips already back from fabrication and currently undergoing
The Lenovo ThinkSystem SR650 V4 is a flexible and powerful 2-socket, 2U rack server designed to meet the needs of industries such as cloud services, telecommunications, and high-performance computing (HPC). Whether optimizing for scale-out workloads or future-proofing your data center with high-density compute, the SR650 V4 offers meaningful upgrades over its predecessor, the SR650 V3.
