2U, dual-socket Intel platform
HPE ProLiant Compute DL380 Gen12
A balanced rack platform for enterprise applications. Explore the configuration, clarify the workload and request an itemised proposal.
Where HPE ProLiant Compute DL380 Gen12 fits
The DL380 Gen12 is a 2U, dual-socket Intel Xeon 6 platform. It is a candidate for enterprise rack deployments that need a balanced combination of compute, memory, storage and expansion.
For a replacement virtualisation host, share an inventory of current virtual machines, peak resource use and availability requirements. For a database, include data growth and response-time targets instead of sizing only from the number of users.
Installation and workload checks
Confirm the proposed OS or hypervisor, storage layout, network connectivity and migration approach. If GPU acceleration is required, validate it for the exact build rather than assuming a general-purpose rack server includes an accelerator.
What to specify in your quote
| Decision | Information to provide |
|---|---|
| Workload | Applications, current utilisation, peak demand, availability target and expected growth. |
| Compute and memory | Processor requirements, memory working set, expansion plan and software licensing constraints. |
| Storage and network | Usable capacity, latency needs, resilience, backup destination and required network connections. |
| AI acceleration | Model and framework, precision, GPU memory needs, concurrency and validated accelerator options. |
| Delivery and support | Quantity, delivery location, site readiness, support term and installation responsibilities. |
Build a proposal that can be compared fairly
Ask Invitty for a bill of materials separating hardware, software licences, support and implementation. Include required mounting accessories, management entitlements and power components. When comparing offers, check identical part numbers and support terms; a lower total can reflect missing components rather than a better price.
For a replacement, record the migration window, backup status and rollback requirements before choosing hardware. For a new AI application, agree a representative workload test with a measurable acceptance target. A component specification alone does not establish application performance.
