Featuring significant enhancements to AMD's industry-defining native quad-core microprocessor technology, the choice of incorporating AMD's newest server processor can help Verari's enterprise customers to adapt and respond in a dynamic business environment and to scale as their business demands require without altering existing data centre infrastructure.

"Many customers are moving to virtualization solutions to run multiple applications per server", stated Dan Gatti, senior vice president of worldwide market operations, Verari Systems. "The enhanced Quad-Core AMD Opteron processor incorporated into Verari's product line of robust data centre consolidation solutions offers a compelling choice for next-generation IT infrastructures seeking to optimize virtualization and makes an ideal platform for a more flexible IT environment."

More than just four cores, Quad-Core AMD Opteron processors feature Direct Connect Architecture, which means processors are directly connected to one another as well as the memory banks and the I/O subsystem, helping reduce bottlenecks inherent in traditional front-side bus architectures for superior performance.

"The combination of Verari's innovative server technology and AMD's industry-defining processor technology has long helped customers to improve server density while enhancing performance and energy efficiency", stated Patrick Patla, general manager, Server and Workstation Division, AMD. "The enhanced performance-per-watt and memory capabilities of the new Quad-Core AMD Opteron processor add significant benefits to Verari's compute and storage arrays. AMD is proud to work with Verari as they continue their tradition of setting the standard in enterprise computing."

With rising demand for high-performance servers and storage in numerous market sectors including oil and gas, service provider, entertainment and financial services, Verari works closely with its customers to help develop "green data centres" that deliver more energy-efficient processing performance and storage capacity with the highest levels of availability and reliability.
