Cisco UCS C240 M6
High performance for data-intensive applications
The Cisco UCS C240 M6 Rack Server is well-suited for a wide range of storage and I/O-intensive applications such as big data analytics, databases, collaboration, virtualization, consolidation, and high-performance computing in its two-socket, 2RU form factor.
The Cisco UCS C240 M6 Server extends the capabilities of the Cisco UCS rack server portfolio with 3rd Gen Intel Xeon Scalable Processors supporting more than 43 percent more cores per socket and 33 percent more memory when compared with the previous generation. This provides up to 40 percent more performance than the M5 generation for your most demanding applications.
You can deploy the Cisco UCS C-Series rack servers as standalone servers or as part of the Cisco Unified Computing System managed by Cisco Intersight, Cisco UCS Manager, or Intersight Managed Mode to take advantage of Cisco® standards-based unified computing innovations that can help reduce your Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) and increase your business agility.
These improvements deliver significant performance and efficiency gains that will improve your application performance. The Cisco UCS C240 M6 Rack Server delivers outstanding levels of expandability and performance.
