HPE P55080-B21 ProLiant DL385 Gen11 16 Core Server
Overview
The HPE ProLiant DL385 Gen11, part number P55080-B21, is a 2U rack server engineered for high-performance computing and data-intensive workloads. Designed for deployment in enterprise data centers, this server addresses the need for exceptional compute density and I/O scalability. It provides a robust platform for virtualization, Big Data analytics, and artificial intelligence (AI) or machine learning (ML) environments. At its core, this configuration is powered by a 4th Generation AMD EPYC™ 9124 processor, delivering 16 cores and a substantial 64 MB L3 cache to accelerate demanding applications. The architecture supports high-speed PCIe Gen5 I/O, which significantly boosts data transfer rates between the processor, memory, and peripherals. This capability is critical for environments that require rapid access to large datasets and low-latency performance for accelerator cards. The server’s 2U chassis is optimized for density and scalability within a standard rack infrastructure. Management is streamlined through HPE’s integrated Lights-Out (iLO) technology, which provides secure, remote server administration from provisioning to ongoing maintenance. The system’s design, featuring a Broadcom MR408i-o controller and support for up to eight small form factor drives, makes it an excellent choice for building out scalable and manageable compute clusters.
