Database performance and resiliency in the Intel processor-powered
Dell PowerEdge R630 running Microsoft SQL Server 2014
APPENDIX A – ABOUT THE COMPONENTS
About the Dell PowerEdge R630
Fitting into just 1U of rack space, the Dell PowerEdge R630 features two Intel E5v3 processors to deliver high
compute performance. Dell designed the PowerEdge R630 with cloud applications, virtualization environments, and high
performance computing (HPC) infrastructures in mind. The PowerEdge R630 has 24 DIMM slots to support up to 1.5 TB
of memory, supports an optional internal GPU processing accelerator, and can support up to two optional NVMe Express
Flash PCIe SSDs to reduce storage bottlenecks.
In addition to the features above, the distuinguishing flexibility feature of the Dell PowerEdge R630 is the choice
of storage options. In additional to more traditional 2.5-inch hard disk drive (HDD) options, the Dell PowerEdge R630
includes 1.8-inch SATA SSD options. Figure 6 shows the 1.8-inch SATA SSD capacities and use types available on the Dell
PowerEdge R630.

With redundant power supply units, hot-swappable hardware, and Dual SD card for Failsafe Hypervisors, the
Dell PowerEdge R630 supports hardware high availability. The PowerEdge R630 comes standard with iDRAC7 with
Lifecycle Controller and Dell OpenManage, which all work to streamline management.

About Microsoft SQL Server 2014
SQL Server 2014 includes the AlwaysOn features introduced in SQL Server 2012, along with a number of
advances over previous versions. The in-memory columnstore is now updatable, and a new in-memory OLTP engine
boosts transactional performance dramatically. According to Microsoft, “SQL Server 2014’s in-memory OLTP technology
delivers blistering performance for mission-critical applications while minimizing additional cost by only requiring the
hot tables of the database to be put in memory vs. the entire database, like other solutions on the market. When these
hot tables are memory optimized, they automatically transform into a new data structure that eliminates locking and
latching, further increasing performance. SQL Server 2014 will also identify which stored procedures can be recompiled
to further improve throughput. All this is built directly into SQL Server 2014, so there is no need to buy specialized
hardware, expensive add-ons or learn new skills to achieve breakthrough performance.”
