PowerEdge FC430: A Compact, High-Performance Server Designed for Enterprise Workloads
The Dell PowerEdge FC430 provides an optimal balance of performance, memory, and high-speed I/O, enabling the swift allocation of resources to applications. It is ideal for traditional enterprise workloads, including mid-sized virtualisation and database environments, and is an excellent choice for distributed systems requiring higher reliability. The FC430 helps minimise the risk of system failures by hosting applications on smaller, physically isolated servers.
Optimise for Workload
The FC430 offers various configuration options:
- Two 18-core Intel® Xeon® E5-2600 v4 processors or a single-socket Intel® Xeon® E5-1600 v3 option
- Two 1.8-inch drives, or a single 1.8-inch drive with a front-access mezzanine port and Mellanox® InfiniBand® connection
- Supports a maximum of 8 DIMMs of memory
- Dual-port 10Gb LOM for networking purposes
- Each FC430 is equipped with a single PCIe 3.0 expansion slot
Execute Enhanced Dependability
A notable feature of the FC430 is its quarter-width form factor. It can run multiple applications in a virtualised environment or manage the operations of several clients as a dedicated host. Either way, it provides enhanced reliability through physical separation, ensuring that the failure of one server does not disrupt the operations of virtual machines or clients running on other servers.
Optimise Your IT Resources
React promptly to business requirements with the highly adaptable FX architecture. Resources can be expanded at the individual server level or by adding one or more fully equipped 2U enclosures. A fully equipped FX2 chassis with eight FC430s offers 224 cores and 48 DIMMs of memory, all within a compact 2U space.
Progressive Management using Intelligent Automation
The Dell OpenManage systems management portfolio streamlines and automates server lifecycle management, enhancing IT operations and ensuring that Dell servers are productive, reliable, and cost-effective. The agent-free integrated Dell Remote Access Controller (iDRAC) with Lifecycle Controller simplifies and automates server deployment, configuration, and updates. The Chassis Management Controller (CMC), integrated into every FX2 chassis, allows for the management of FC430 server nodes individually or collectively via a web-based interface.
OpenManage Essentials offers enterprise-grade monitoring and management of Dell and third-party data centre hardware, and integrates with OpenManage Mobile to deliver similar information on smartphones. OpenManage Essentials also provides server configuration management capabilities that automate bare-metal server and operating system deployments, replicate configurations, and ensure continuous compliance with established system configurations.
