The AMD EPYC™ team is on the road again, and the next stop is HPE Discover. I’m headed to Las Vegas next week on the heels of our latest announcement, delivered by Dr. Lisa Su at Computex earlier this month, that AMD EPYC processors are at the core of the new HPE ProLiant DL325 Gen10 no compromise, single-socket server.

 

128832_EPYC_HPE_DL325Announcement_TW_1024x512_FNL.jpgIn case you missed it, this powerhouse new platform from HPE is designed to tackle dense virtualization and software-defined storage workloads. With up to 32 “Zen” processor cores from AMD EPYC, two terabytes of memory and 40 terabytes of NVMe storage in a 1U chassis, along with 40 PCIe lanes dedicated up to 10 NVMe drives, the HPE ProLiant DL325 Gen10 delivers up to 25 percent lower cost per virtual machine (VM) than the leading dual-processor competitor for virtualization[1]. Take a peek under the hood at our AMD Booth #146.

 

The HPE ProLiant DL325 Gen10 is one of a number of AMD-based HPE products we will be showing off next week. You can also check out the two-socket HPE ProLiant DL385 Gen10, and HPE MicroServer, as well as a live virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) demo from the cloud.

 

In addition to the demos and action taking place at the AMD booth, here are a few other events within HPE Discover where you can find me and the team on the show floor:
