When upgrading, purchasers have a choice between investing in the latest-generation hardware or trying to reduce their capital expenditure (CAPEX) by going with previous-generation gear. To help those in this position understand the implications of both options, Principled Technologies conducted a series of tests on two three-node Microsoft Windows Server 2022 clusters with Hyper-V and Storage Spaces Direct. One cluster used previous-generation single-socket 15G Dell™ PowerEdge™ R7515 servers powered by 3rd Gen AMD EPYC7543P processors; the other used latest-generation single- socket 16G DellPowerEdge R7615 servers powered by 4th Gen AMD EPYC™ 9354P processors along with Broadcom® network interface cards (NICs) and PERC 11 storage controllers. We measured each cluster’s capabilities by making it simultaneously handle a database workload, a container-based application, and a web app-a-mix of workloads similar to the ones that many SMBs run.
