ASUS has announced the RS700-E9 and ESC4000 G4 servers based on the new Intel Xeon Scalable platform. The Intel ® Xeon ®Scalable offer a performance per core that is superior to previous models. It comes with six additional channels that increase bandwidth and memory capacity by 50%. That, in the end, translates into 1.65 times faster performance than The previous generation of processors.

As it also provides more virtualization performance, the Intel Xeon Scalable CPU platform enables a 4.2-fold increase in virtual machines (VMs) per system. Thanks to these features and the possibilities of scalability, energy efficiency and administration of ASUS, the RS700-E9 and ESC4000 G4 servers are lovely options for data center applications.
RS700-E9 Expansion possibilities for storage and applications
The RS720-E9 and ESC4000 G4 servers include support for two M.2 PCIe® drives. That allows the operating system to load 5.3 times faster than SATA 3 drives. These new servers also support NVD and Intel Omni-Path Architecture 100 Gbps to increase density in high-performance HPC applications and reduce costs.
More Solts
The RS720-E9 features three PCIe 3.0 slots and an OCP 2.0 Mezzanine for LAN cards. Thanks to its optimized cooling, it is capable of supporting 205W processors, 24 DIMMs and up to 12 storage bays in a chassis with a single rack unit.
Intelligent Design
At the same time, the ESC4000 G4 offers multiple configuration possibilities for acceleration applications, with a capacity to accommodate up to 4 dual-height GPUs, 16 DIMMs and a versatile 8 + 3 configuration in a two-rack format.
RS700-E9 Intelligent thermal design for increased energy efficiency
Also, all ASUS servers come with the exclusive Thermal Radar technology. That includes a larger number of sensors to monitor the temperature of the CPU, memory, GPU, SSD, OCP 10G LAN card and the front panel board. In this way, it is reasonable to reduce the energy consumption of the fans by 20% and eliminates the need to implement the shared power board of the same.
RS700-E9 Complete administration with the ASUS ASMB9-iKVM module and the ASUS Control Center
In addition, thanks to the ASUS ASMB9-iKVM module and the ASUS Control Center (ACC). The RS700-E9 and ESC4000 G4 servers provide all the necessary management and control functions. Also, ASMB9-iKVM has continuous monitoring and diagnostic services. Even if the operating system has been dropped or not connected, all through an intuitive interface compatible with leading online browsers.

So, the ASUS Control Center (ACC) is a monitoring platform included in ASUS commercial products such as servers, workstations, and signaling solutions. Also, ACC allows administrators to monitor the status of components, update the BIOS, send programs and program tasks from an intuitive control panel. That reduces the time needed to perform daily tasks such as stock checks.
