System x3850 x6

The unique modular “book” design of the x3850 X6 accommodates multiple generations of processor and memory technology in the same chassis, delivering seamless scalability and maximum performance.

Access Real-time Data

• Fast application performance means immediate access to actionable information.
• Agile system design provides the ability to upgrade processor and memory technology to the next generation, reducing acquisition costs significantly.
• Resilient platforms maximize application uptime and promote easy integration in virtual environments.

Better Results

As businesses continue to expand into mobile and cloud arenas, mission-critical applications—and data center infrastructure—must do more. Superior IT solutions must easily scale up for better performance, manage large masses of data, and make crucial actionable insight available in real time. It’s a given that the volume of data you manage continues to grow, yet you remain constrained by a finite set of capital and operational resources. The Lenovo System x3850 X6, based on the sixth generation of Enterprise X-Architecture technology, helps you efficiently deliver better, more timely business results.

Fast Performance

X6 platforms combined with Intel® Xeon® processors E7-4800/8800 v4 series can produce up to 26% faster compute performance than the last -generation of X6 systems with last-generation processors.* The X6 portfolio delivers large application virtualization and decreases infrastructure costs and complexity. Now you can design faster analytics engines, rein in IT sprawl, and deliver information with high reliability. X6 mission-critical servers are fast, agile, and resilient.
