All-flash next generation hardware with TERRA SERVER
TERRA SERVER 7120 G3
The extremely powerful server system is based on the new Intel® Xeon® Scalable platform and boasts an 8-core Intel XEON Silver processor and 64GB DDR4 RAM. As a hardware lifecycle host (HLH), the TERRA SERVER 7120G3 is integrated into the Azure Stack environment and serves as both a management host and a deployment host.
The entire installation of the Azure Stack is handled via the HLH. All settings, software patches, and firmware levels are checked from the beginning and made available for deployment. This ensures that the software and hardware are always up to date.
TERRA SERVER 7224 G3
The TERRA SERVER 7224 G3 ensures a lasting and stable environment. Equipped with the new Intel Xeon Scalable platform, each Azure Stack Host is based on at least 2 Intel Xeon Gold processors with 14 cores each.
The boot medium is Intel® SSD DC S3520 series. The scalable Azure Stack Host is extended by NVMe Cache Intel SSD DC P4600 drives with a capacity of 2TB in the Raid network. The all-flash storage can easily be upgraded to a maximum of 22 Intel SSD DC S3520 drives up to 35TB.
The first verified All-Flash Azure Stack
To deploy and manage a variety of Azure VMs, up to 768 GB DDR4 2666Mhz is used. Management and security are provided by Intel's TPM 2.0 and Intel® Remote Management Module (RMM).
To continue working during unplanned downtime without disruption while maintaining the same performance, the Azure Stack hardware is based on a Hyperconverged architecture, using Intel® Ethernet Network Connection OCP X527-DA2 10GB SFP + modules supporting RDMA and iWarp.
