How to Select an HPE ProLiant Rack Server
Begin with the software and workload requirements, then size the platform around compute, memory, storage, network throughput, availability, and future expansion.
Match the Server to the Workload
Different applications place different demands on processors, memory, storage latency, accelerator support, and network performance.
- Virtualization benefits from high core counts and large memory capacity.
- Databases may require higher clock speeds and low-latency storage.
- Backup systems often prioritize drive capacity and network throughput.
- AI and rendering workloads may require compatible GPUs and power capacity.
- File and storage services require appropriate drive bays and RAID planning.
Plan for Compatibility and Growth
Verify that the selected server generation supports the operating system, hypervisor, controllers, adapters, firmware, and expansion hardware required for the deployment.
- Confirm processor and memory expansion limits.
- Review drive backplane and storage-controller compatibility.
- Verify network adapter and transceiver requirements.
- Allow adequate power, cooling, and rack depth.
- Plan for redundant power and replacement components.
- Confirm GPU, riser, and auxiliary-power requirements when applicable.
