System x3755 M3
Highlights
- Meet growing workload demands with cost-effective processor and memory scaling
- Delivers value, performance and memory for midsized workloads
- Realize the benefits of four-socket architecture in a slim 2U server
The scalability to meet growing demands
The IBM System x3755 M3 is a four-socket server that provides outstanding performance and capacity in a slim 2U design. Based on the 8- or 12-core AMD Opteron 6000 Series platform, the x3755 M3 helps organizations scale as workload demands increase, accommodating up to 48 processor cores and providing 32 DIMM slots for cost-effective memory scaling.
The right size for midsized workloads
The x3755 M3 is an ideal server for midsized workloads, including Java workloads, databases, virtualization workloads, and enterprise applications such as ERP. The increased processor density helps reduce networking complexity and cost for high-performance computing workloads, and the available 16 TB of internal storage facilitates data-intensive workloads like business intelligence.
