Data Sheet

The unique, adaptive modular rack design of the new x3850 X6 
delivers agility, enabling you to design a solution that meets 
your needs. At the same time, you can realize infrastructure  
cost savings by hosting multiple generations of technology in  
a single platform—without compromising performance or 
capacity. With X6 platforms:

●● ●

You can configure the server to fit the unique requirements of 

your applications and workloads; you can add, modify or 
upgrade X6 platforms easily with selectable modular book 
components. There are three types of X6 books, one for each 
of the major subsystems—storage, compute and I/O. 

●● ●

You can scale capacity and performance from 4-socket to 

8-socket, to deliver twice the performance for growing  
applications without creating IT sprawl.

●● ●

You can use IBM Fast Setup software for automated  

provisioning of a cluster of servers; realize time-to-value in 
minutes rather than days.

●● ●

You get agile system design that provides the ability to host 

multiple generations of technology in a single server.

The growth of new applications has ratcheted database  
processing and business analytics to the top of the list of  
crucial x86 workloads for enterprise businesses. These environ-
ments demand continuous uptime in order to rapidly achieve 
the most valuable result—massive amounts of business-critical 
data. The enterprise platforms that host these workloads must 
deliver data at a high velocity—with continuous availability.
