Breaking 6 world records! ML350 Gen11 awarded as the world’s most energy-efficient tower server

Recently, the HPE ProLiant ML350 Gen11 tower server passed the international authoritative standard performance evaluation agency SPEC testing. The server achieved the highest energy efficiency score of over 15000 in six different testing environments, breaking six world records for tower server energy efficiency. With outstanding performance, it achieves a perfect balance between energy efficiency and performance, helping enterprises reduce TCO (total cost of ownership) and achieve green and sustainable development.

HPE ProLiant ML350 Gen11 Dual Channel Tower Server

SPECpower_stsj2008 is a performance to power ratio benchmark testing tool developed by SPEC organization, used to evaluate the energy efficiency of servers based on Java applications. The energy efficiency performance of different products under different loads can help users quickly select the best energy efficiency ratio computing platform, providing the best choice for the planning and construction of IDC data centers and energy consumption analysis.

The calculation method of SPECpower_stsj2008 is extremely rigorous, and standard Java JDK is used to evaluate the performance of the server. During the testing process, the server will first run the preset Java server workload in real-time three times at full load. The results of each run will be recorded, and the average of these three runs will be calculated as the reference value for the system at its highest performance state. Subsequently, the test will run the same workload according to a series of preset load levels. At each load level, the system records its corresponding performance metrics (such as throughput, response time, etc.) and power consumption values. The ultimate goal of the test is to evaluate the performance to power ratio (PPW) of the system by comparing performance and power consumption data under different loads. The higher the performance to power ratio, the less energy the system consumes while providing the same performance, indicating higher energy efficiency.

The HPE ProLiant ML350 Gen11 exhibits outstanding energy performance under extreme load conditions, achieving up to 20175 Java operations per watt at maximum load and maintaining excellent performance in the high-intensity load range of 70% -99.5%, resulting in a 40% increase in energy efficiency compared to the previous generation product. This outstanding achievement not only demonstrates the relentless pursuit of technical excellence, but also embodies practical actions based on the concept of green computing.

The HPE ProLiant ML350 Gen11 tower server is designed for growing enterprises and is specifically designed for various small workloads. It is equipped with two fourth/fifth generation Intel Xeon Scalable processors and has a 40% increase in energy efficiency compared to the previous generation product. Paired with DDR5 memory that can run at speeds up to 5600MT/s, it effortlessly handles both large-scale data processing and complex application deployment. The configuration with 10 PCIe 5.0 slots and support for up to 8 single width or 4 dual width GPU cards allows it to excel in multiple fields such as IT infrastructure, data management, VDI, ERP/CRM, and easily cope with various demanding workloads.

In addition, the ML350 Gen11, with its tower shaped design, demonstrates excellent deployment flexibility. It can be used as a standalone tower server or converted into a 4U rack mounted server, meeting the needs of different scenarios. This design enables enterprises to flexibly adjust the deployment of servers according to their own business development and changes in IT architecture, thereby maximizing resource utilization efficiency.

Peak energy efficiency breaks world record

Certified by SPEC authority, the ML350 Gen11 achieved the highest scores in six different testing environments, setting six world records for tower server energy efficiency. With outstanding performance, it has demonstrated a perfect balance between energy efficiency and performance.

• In terms of cooling system, the ML350 Gen11 supports high-performance heat sinks. The selection of heat sink is based on the thermal design power consumption (TDP) of the CPU. By accurately matching the TDP of the CPU, users can flexibly configure the most suitable heat sink to achieve the best heat dissipation effect and energy consumption ratio. These high-performance heat sinks use advanced heat pipe technology, large-area heat dissipation fins, and efficient fan systems to quickly divert the heat generated by the CPU, ensuring that the CPU temperature remains within a safe range and avoiding performance degradation or system crashes caused by overheating.
• The ML350 Gen11 is equipped with a 3D temperature ocean sensor network, which monitors the actual load and temperature status of the CPU and key components in real time and provides real-time feedback on system data. The cooling system automatically adjusts the fan speed to achieve precise temperature control. Through the 3D temperature ocean function of HPE iLO management software, users can easily achieve real-time visual monitoring of the temperature distribution inside the server and quickly locate potential heat source locations. After more than ten years of continuous evolution and optimization, the 3D temperature ocean function has not only achieved the ultimate visual effect, but also achieved a qualitative leap in monitoring accuracy. By continuously optimizing algorithms and integrating sensors, this function can monitor the temperature changes of every key component inside the server in real time, ensuring the accuracy and real-time performance of data. More importantly, iLO software also has intelligent tuning capabilities, allowing users to adjust the power management mode of the server based on the current workload and temperature conditions.
