Unlocking the Value of HCI

IT organizations must face the challenges that come with aging infrastructure, the pressures of transformation, the changing ISV landscape, and ever-present security threats. Hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI) and virtualization can help address these challenges, enabling IT leaders to simplify data center management, drive efficiencies, and achieve greater scalability. Discover how AMD processor-powered solutions help unlock the full value of HCI.

AMD EPYC Processor

AMD EPYC™ Processors for HCI

AMD EPYC™ server processors enable leadership HCI performance while helping consolidate workloads onto fewer physical servers—potentially driving lower software licensing costs, while optimizing TCO and power consumption. EPYC also comes with AMD Infinity Guard, a full suite of advanced security features including Secure Encrypted Virtualization (SEV) to help keep data protected.1
