Delivering modern solutions requires infrastructure that can keep pace with rapidly evolving workloads, deployment models, and customer expectations. From AI and analytics to virtualization and edge computing, platforms must be flexible, scalable, and efficient-without adding complexity. UNICOM Engineering, in collaboration with Dell Technologies, delivers rack server platforms that meet these demands head-on, offering flexibility, lifecycle support, and performance needed to accelerate solution delivery.
Why Infrastructure Must Evolve
Complexity of Modern Workloads Today's environments incorporate diverse workloads from virtualization and database management to AI inferencing and HPC. Meeting these demands requires infrastructure that not only delivers high raw performance but adapts quickly to shifting needs. Platforms must support a wide range of applications without compromise.
Energy Efficiency and Sustainability Escalating energy consumption is a mounting concern from both cost and environmental perspectives. Modern data centers must drive consolidation while minimizing power usage, essential for achieving long-term sustainability and financial goals. Energy-efficient platforms translate to lower operating costs and greener deployments.
Scalability and Modularity Infrastructure must scale horizontally and vertically, adding compute, memory, storage, or accelerators without overhauling foundational systems. Modular hardware, open standards, and flexible I/O become key enablers-especially when tailoring platforms to specific use cases or customer environments.
Operational Intelligence and Resilience Proactive monitoring, predictive analytics, and automated remediation help minimize unplanned downtime and maintain consistently high service levels. Intelligent management systems are now mission-critical for delivering managed services or turnkey solutions with confidence.
UNICOM Engineering's Rack Server Advantage: High Performance Meets Scalable Design
UNICOM Engineering's rack server offerings, built on Dell Technologies' PowerEdge architecture, deliver a future-ready foundation engineered around performance, efficiency, and flexibility. These platforms are ideal for accelerating time-to-market, simplifying integration, and scaling with confidence.
High Performance, Energy-Efficient Processing Modern rack servers with Intel® Xeon® 6 processors offer dual-socket configurations in 1U or 2U form factors, supporting everything from virtualization and databases to AI and HPC workloads. For example, testing on a PowerEdge R570 server revealed:
• 56% higher performance per watt per core compared to a comparable competitive rack server • 102% more compute performance versus PowerEdge servers introduced four years earlier
This blending of density and energy efficiency enables solution providers to deliver more with a lean footprint-maximizing ROI while minimizing complexity.
AI-Optimized Acceleration Ready The Dell PowerEdge XE9680 is engineered for high-performance AI workloads and offers flexibility in accelerator options. Solution providers can choose between Intel Gaudi 3 and NVIDIA GPUs, depending on workload needs and deployment strategy.
UNICOM Engineering supports both configurations, enabling solution providers to deploy with confidence whether optimizing for cost, performance, or integration flexibility.
Advanced Power and Cooling Optimization
Efficiency features play a pivotal role in sustainability and cost management:
• Up to 82% faster power-capping for tighter energy control • Smart power and cooling technologies that reduce fan power use by up to 52%
These capabilities help reduce costs and support sustainability goals, without sacrificing performance or reliability.
Unmatched Scalability with Open Architecture Some rack servers options embrace Open Compute Project (OCP) and Data Center Modular Hardware Systems (DC-MHS) standards:
• Customizable front and rear I/O configurations • Modular design that reduces vendor lock-in and simplifies expansion
This means easier integration, faster deployment, and future-proof flexibility across customer environments.
Simplified Management with Proactive Controls The iDRAC management suite offers:
• Real-time monitoring and predictive analytics • Secure, standards-based remote access and lifecycle control • Integration with broader IT management tools (e.g., OpenManage)
This translates to fewer surprises and more refinements based on telemetry, enabling proactive support and streamlined operations.
Real-World Impact: Enabling Scalable, High-Performance Solutions
UNICOM Engineering's platform offerings, including the Dell PowerEdge XE9680, are designed to support demanding solution environments-from AI and analytics to virtualization and edge deployments. With support for up to 96 GPUs per rack via direct liquid cooling, these systems deliver unmatched compute density in a compact footprint.
Modular design and open standards like DC-MHS and OCP ensure flexibility and upgradeability, allowing solution providers to evolve their platforms without disruptive overhauls. Whether scaling AI workloads or expanding into new markets, these platforms provide the performance and adaptability needed to stay ahead.
