 IBM eServer p5 510
| | |
The IBM eServer p5 510 server has been withdrawn from the market, effective May 31, 2006. The following links provide information on the p5-510.
- High-performance applications and database server
- Mainframe-inspired reliability, availability and serviceability (RAS) features for enterprise and branch applications
- Flexibility to run UNIX® and Linux® applications simultaneously
The IBM eServer® p5 510 server is an affordable, compact, high-performing system with reliability features for businesses of all sizes. It offers the flexibility to run enterprise applications or replicated branch/store applications in remote locations. With leading-edge IBM POWER5™ processor technology, a range of tools to ease management, support for both UNIX and Linux environments and enterprise-level reliability and availability features, the p5-510 is an excellent solution for a wide range of business-critical applications, including transaction processing, applications serving, database serving, data mining, datamarts, e-mail, file and print serving and more. It can be used as a standalone company server, replicated branch server, security or knowledge server, or as a powerful clustered compute server running analytical, scientific or engineering applications.
The p5-510 server is designed to help companies do more work with fewer computer systems. With its compact 2U (two EIA units) rack drawer package, the p5-510 is mounted in an industry-standard 19" rack. It is equipped with fifth-generation 1.65GHz POWER5 processors in 1- or 2-way symmetric multiprocessing (SMP) configurations. The speed and architecture of the p5-510 processors help to ensure outstanding performance for a broad array of applications.
Simultaneous multithreading
1
on the POWER5 processor further improves the performance of the p5-510 server by allowing two application threads to be executed concurrently. At the same time, L2 and L3 caches help to stage information effectively from processor memory to applications. Consequently, the p5-510 can run workloads significantly faster than previous IBM POWER4™ 2-way servers while being designed to reduce the cost of computing.
The p5-510 server can be scaled easily to meet a company's growing needs. Equipped with 512MB of memory in its minimum configuration, the p5-510 can accommodate up to 32GB of memory. Internal disk capacity can be scaled up to 1.2TB. The p5-510 can also be connected to a range of external devices through the external SCSI port and three PCI-X slots.
