customer or sales databases. That data is worthless if businesses can’t
make sense of it though, so they need a powerful solution that can
analyze information and help them use it to serve customers better.
In the Principled Technologies datacenter, we compared how fast a new 14th generation
Dell EMC™ PowerEdge™ R740xd running Microsoft® SQL Server® 2017 Standard on Red
Hat® Enterprise Linux® 7.5 could analyze data versus an older 12th generation Dell EMC
PowerEdge R720xd running Windows Server® 2012 R2 with SQL Server 2008 R2.
Compared to the legacy solution, a new Dell EMC + Microsoft + Red Hat solution
reduced the amount of time it took to analyze data from nearly three hours to just
13 minutes. Plus, the updated Dell EMC + Microsoft + Red Hat solution used fewer
resources, leaving room to handle other tasks as business grows. This means that if you
upgrade to the new solution, you—and your customers—could get the answers you need
faster than ever, which can help make your business more profitable.
