Looking for a dense but highly scalable server for your data center application and virtualization needs? The HPE ProLiant DL560 Gen9 Server is a high-density four-socket (4S) server with balanced performance, increased scalability and reliability, all in a 2U chassis. Supporting the latest Intel® Xeon® E5-4600 v4/v3 processors, the DL560 Gen9 Server offers greater processing power, along with increased storage capacity, I/O bandwidth of up to seven PCIe Gen 3.0 slots, up to 3 TBs of memory, plus the intelligence and simplicity of automated management with HPE OneView and HPE iLO 4.

The DL560 Gen9 Server is the ideal server for virtualization, server consolidation, database, business processing, and general 4P data-intensive applications where data center space and the right performance are paramount.

What's new

• Support for the Intel Xeon E5-4600 v4 processor family.

• HPE 25GbE Network Adapters have the breakthrough performance you need at 2.5X the performance of previous generation 10GbE and a lower overall cost for scalability to 100 Gbps. ³

• HPE DDR4 SmartMemory 2400 MHz modules for increased performance for data-intensive application workloads.

• HPE OneView 3.0 for HPE ProLiant (DL) Rack Gen9 Servers provides infrastructure management that reduces complexity with automation simplicity.

• HP Trusted Platform Module (TPM) 2.0 prevents unauthorized access to servers and securely store artifacts used to authenticate the server platforms.

Features
