Dubai - With the needs of modern financial and telecommunications companies in the Middle East, and big data processing in mind, Fujitsu isintroducing the new FUJITSU Server PRIMEQUEST 2000 series secondgeneration line up of high-end servers that offer oustanding x86 performance and memory expandability.Mission-critical functionalitieshelp ensure business continuity, with uptimelevels equivalent to those of UNIX/mainframe systems - butwith the cost advantages of an x86-based architecture. Fujitsu also delivers today the platform of choice for business-critical back-end services - offering superior levels of performance, memory capacity and reliability with the introduction of the FUJITSU Server PRIMERGY RX4770 M2.
Straight from the launch of the new Intel® Xeon® Processor E7 v3 Product Family, all three models of the new PRIMEQUEST 2000 series and the PRIMERGY RX4770 M2 are certified by SAP to run SAP HANA in single node configurations1. .
Modern Bakery, EMKE Group and Al Sayer Trading are amongst Fujitsu customers already using SAP HANA® to transform their ICT into powerful business-intelligent solutions in the Middle East.
The PRIMEQUEST 2000 series combines UNIX-matching high-availability features with x86 cost efficiency and delivers a rock-solid data center infrastructure platform, which is already known for record-breaking levels of performance and system resilience. New to the second generation are extended self-healing advanced Reliability, Availability and Serviceability (RAS) components, including Dynamic Reconfiguration and Extended Partitioning; resilience in DDR4 memory; and the new processors of the Intel Xeon Processor E7 v3 Family.The new PRIMEQUEST line-up revolutionizes critical-workload processingwith extra-large memory capacities of up to 12TB.
The quad-socket PRIMEQUEST 2400E2 and eight-socket PRIMEQUEST 2800E2 are best suited to mission-critical computing, where downtime is not an option. Theyofferan attractive alternative to businesses that want to migrate to a x86 platform without losing the reliability of current UNIX/mainframe systems.
In comparison,the eight-socket PRIMEQUEST 2800B2 model is ideally suited to handlemore memory-intensive applications like in-memory computing and SAP HANA,while giving cost-efficiency and peace-of-mind forbusiness-critical security levels.
Fujitsu also offers enterprise customers turnkey professional services to make migration from legacy systems a simple and trouble-free path - with the Fujitsu Global Delivery Center network able to remotely manage and monitor installations around the clock2.
Hans-Dieter Wysuwa, Senior Vice President and Head of Global Product Business, Fujitsu said: "The datacenter market is witnessing revolutionary times. The new generation PRIMEQUEST family helps companies processing huge amounts of mission-critical data to embrace the benefits of the data explosion while enabling business continuity. These ambidextrous, rack-optimized enterprise systems make UNIX/Mainframe available on an x86 platformproviding the intelligent backbone that enables Fujitsu customers to deliver 24/7 service to their customers."
Addressing the PRIMERGY RX4770 M2, it is equipped with the latest of the Intel Xeon Processor E7 v3 Family available with up to 72 cores, plus up to 6TB super-fast DDR4 main memory. The server delivers state-of-the-art management capabilities with the new integrated Remote Management Controller (iRMC S4), offering a variety of user-friendly functions to help ensure a faster and more cost-effective infrastructure management, no matter where it is located. This quad-socket x86 server offers breakthrough performance, rock-solid reliability, and compelling consolidation and manageability efficiencies.
Hans-Dieter Wysuwa adds: "Fujitsu offers one of the widest ranges of data center and integrated systems, and the FUJITSU Server PRIMERGY RX4770 M2 is the flagship of the PRIMERGY server family. It achieves a new level of compute performance to deliver more efficient business results. It handles complex, data-intensive workloads such as in-memory databases and real-time business analytics with greater easeeven than the previous high-end generation."
Thefeatures of the PRIMERGY RX4770 M2 make it an exceptional platform for running demanding and data-intensivedatabases, applications, and business intelligence (BI) workloads. In addition, it substantially simplifies carrying out infrastructure-related tasks such as server virtualization at a pricepoint that also makes it attractive for consolidationprojects. This allows companies to boost their data center while reducing operational expenses by up to 48 percent3 as well as a 2:1 consolidation ratio compared to a quad-socket system with typical working period4.

2 Service offerings vary by country, see: http://www.fujitsu.com/fts/services/business/it-consulting/
3 Compared to 10 existing, 5-year old, quad-socket servers, only 4 new servers are needed to handle the same workloads (based on calculations with the Fujitsu Value Calculator App)
4 Per year, this results in potential savings of 8.580€ (for management, power/cooling and maintenance) calculated with a price of 0,25€ for power (kWh) - Previous cost 17.740€ (based on calculations with the Fujitsu Value Calculator App).
