IBM Power 740 Express Rack Mount Server

Power is the performance that deliversbusiness advantage

The leadership performance of the POWER7 processor makesit possible for applications to run faster with fewer processors,resulting in lower per core software licensing costs. In addition,a single system can now run more applications and reduce thenumber of required servers, lowering infrastructure costs.

Power is effortlessly balancing workload performance

POWER7 Intelligent Threads technology enables workload optimization by automatically switching between one, two and four execution threads per processor in order to optimize appli-cation throughput. In addition, Active Memory™ Expansion is a new POWER7 technology that enables the effective maximum memory capacity to be much larger than the true physical memory without the complexity and cost of installing additional memory devices. These workload-optimising capabilities can improve application performance and ROI from the server.

Power is the ability to dynamicallyallocate resources

Take advantage of the scalability and capacity of the Power 740 Express by leveraging our industrial-strength PowerVM technology to fully utilize the system. PowerVM allows any individual LPAR to access the maximum amount of memory and CPU cores that are available on the server. PowerVM offers this capability to dynamically adjust system resources to partitions based on workload demands, enabling adynamic infrastructure that dramatically reduces server sprawl via massive consolidation of applications and servers. In addition, optional components, in PowerVM Editions, are designed to provide advanced virtualization technologies, resulting inefficiencies in resource utilization and cost savings.
