Application performance is critical for day-to-day business operations, as well as creating new products and services, increasing competitiveness, and reaching new customers. For the past decade, IT has rapidly added low-cost hardware to accommodate business growth, and many data centers are now stretched to capacity in terms of power, cooling, and floor space. By refreshing data center infrastructure with higher performance, more adaptive, and power-conscious servers, you can deliver additional capability and scalability within the same energy and space footprint, staying ahead of increasing business demands.

Servers based on the Intel® Xeon® processor 5500 series provide a foundation for IT management to refresh existing or design new data centers, achieving greater performance and energy efficiency. The Intel Xeon processor 5500 series, with the new Intel® Microarchitecture, codenamed Nehalem, brings intelligent performance to the world’s most trusted server architecture. Servers based on the Intel Xeon processor 5500 series will automatically and intelligently balance performance and power consumption, enabling servers to adapt in real time to application workloads and user demands, delivering optimal performance.
