1 DATASHEET Gen8 Server Flexibility to future-proof your infrastructure HP Proliant DL385 servers offer low list prices and high rewards The Gen8 server is purpose-built to: Redefine the customer experience through userinspired design features, lifecycle automation, and workload optimization Deliver peace of mind with enhanced reliability, quick serviceability, and industryleading manageability Deliver performance and efficiency for a leading return on investment Enhance configuration flexibility to future-proof your infrastructure Right-Sized Compute Solutions for Economical Infrastructure and Smart IT Economics Hewlett Packard Enterprise s ProLiant Gen8 servers, powered by AMD Opteron x86 processors, offer data center managers a unique combination of economy, performance, and manageability. Their solution value is based on the reality that most IT workloads do not take full advantage of available compute power. Industry data reveals that CPU performance is not a critical decision factor in purchasing a server for 65% of common data center workloads1. For many common workloads, the bottlenecks are in the memory and the networking, not the processor. An investment in high-performing CPUs may not guarantee superior system or application-level performance. Rather, the results include low server utilization rates and a needless investment in unnecessary compute capacity. ProLiant Gen8 with AMD x86 Opteron helps you avoid excess spending on compute power that will not be used while offering flexible solutions for the memory and network bottlenecks. The Ideal Balance of Price, Performance, and Reliability AMD-powered DL385 servers enable smarter IT economics. You get the performance you need while optimizing your IT budget. AMD lets you budget for the compute power that you will actually use. If you re buying server hardware based on CPU speeds and SPECint, you are likely paying for compute power that you won t ever need.

2 DL385 is a sound computing choice, enabling your business to: Redistribute IT server spend Buy more affordable mid-stack processors to get better performance per dollar, as well as redirect spending to memory and I/O subsystems. Run virtualization, data management, web infrastructure, and collaboration workloads for a consistent and positive end user experience. Achieve a balanced approach to scalability as demands and system utilization increase. Economy and Flexibility: HPE ProLiant DL385 Gen8 Servers DL385 is a industry-proven workhorse from a long-trusted source of enterprise-grade server solutions. AMD-based server solutions are deployed by some of the world s largest organizations, including major financial institutions, retail chains, and government agencies. The DL385 is ideal for organizations in the 5,000 user range running virtualization or workloads such as database, web infrastructure, and collaboration. The DL385 also offers significant benefits to hosters. Like all HPE Proliant Gen8 servers, the DL385 is designed to deliver strong performance and reliability while simplifying infrastructure management. They run virtualized environments efficiently with low overhead through AMD Virtualization (AMD-V ) 2.0 technology. They also offer best-in-class architecture with Direct Connect Architecture. ProLiant DL385 Enterprise-class reliability and manageability at low cost for the most popular rack deployments and applications The ProLiant DL385 is a general-purpose 1P or 2P server designed to help IT managers generate maximum return on infrastructure investments and extend server life with distinctive reliability, accessibility, and serviceability features. Smarter IT Economics Meet Proven Reliability The ProLiant DL385 is available at a lower acquisition cost for comparable or better application-level performance, helping organizations optimize IT budget across diverse data center needs. By deploying more affordable server solutions like the DL385, IT managers can redirect spending to memory capacity, networking, and other application accelerators. Building on HPE and AMD s history of trusted, enterprise-grade server solutions, the ProLiant DL385 is designed to power an array of user experiences, from cloud services and social media to e-commerce and enterprise applications. Right Sized Performance for 65% of Workloads The ProLiant DL385 can have one or two AMD Opteron 6300 Series Processors, providing performance that can exceed expectations for common data center workloads, but at a lower server acquisition cost. The ProLiant DL385 features Dynamic Workload Acceleration, which combines server and storage to remove bottlenecks and accelerate workloads. It is solid state optimized, with up to 100x faster storage performance and Smart Data Protection to help ensure uptime as well as smart data services that enable real-time application tuning and acceleration. The ProLiant DL385 s Opteron 6300 series has up to 16 cores, which translates into more efficient virtual machines (VMs) per box and low overhead.

3 Economy of Infrastructure ProLiant DL385 administrators benefit from Integrated Lifecycle Automation, which simplifies system provisioning, troubleshooting, and software updates. HPE Intelligent Provisioning Streamlines system setup and deployment. HPE Active Health Gives administrators an efficient, single control point for automated monitoring, diagnostics, and alerting. HPE Smart Update Lets administrators use a single action to handle complex scheduling, staging, and deploying updates across hundreds of servers. Flexible, I/O, and Network Features The ProLiant DL385 combines advanced memory, I/O, and network features with a high degree of flexibility and choice for administrators. The result is a server solution that can be adapted to specific workload requirements for an optimal level of investment. 50% more memory capacity than previous generations of ProLiant Improves performance with larger, 32 GB DIMMs and up to 1,600 MHz memory speeds. More I/O throughput Supports up to six available PCI Express (PCIe) expansion slots with risers for x16, x8, and x4 solutions. HPE Smart Array P420i (with FBWC) Combines with the HPE SmartDrive carrier design to offer intuitive status conditions, better protection, improved performance, capacity, manageability, and reduced downtime. HPE ilo Engine (ilo 4) Provides a lifecycle approach to managing servers, from initial deployment to day-to-day management, service alerting, and remote support. HPE FlexibleLOM technologies Offers a choice in networking with 1 or 10 Gb NICs, CNA, SFP+, FCoE, or InfiniBand. Automated Energy Optimization The ProLiant DL385 combines AMD Opteron s high core-count and power regulating features, such as Turbo Core, with HPE s own energy management to maximize the use of space, power, and cooling. HPE Location Discovery Services, which enables energy-aware workload placement and automates asset management. HPE Thermal Discovery Services, which reduces energy usage and increases compute capacity. HPE Power Discovery Services, which eliminate power configuration errors and precisely track power usage by rack and server. Additional Resources Learn More:
