    • @PaulTheFox1988
      @PaulTheFox1988 3 роки тому +1

      A switch will use RAM as a cache for MAC addresses/IP Addresses and which ports they are assigned to which massively speeds up look-ups. It's obviously also used for the firmware, and any additional features such as firewalls, address filtering, virtual LANs and so on, it's also used to speed up the data transfers across the network by bypassing the switches CPU which can be a bottleneck with such high speed networking. With all of that running you can quickly run out of RAM even with 8GB on switches as beastly as the one in the video.
      You can run DHCP servers, NTP servers and even FTP servers directly off of certain switches/routers like Cisco stuff, and I would imagine the Dell switch can also do those things.

      If you've only ever seen consumer switches and routers then all of this is alien to you, it certainly was to me at first, but in enterprise that dell switch is only the start, and the features we've mentioned are only some of what's possible, and it's all intended use cases that the manufacturer will offer support on.

      That wasn't even the server, that was just a switch.
      It's the part that takes in all the connections to the PCs and puts them through to the actual server in an orderly fashion.
      The server racks are way, way crazier.

    I may be alone in this, but I think the aesthetics of the Thinkstation are on-point! Understated but still high-performance. You know it means business (both literally and figuratively).
    If I had $20,000 for a PC, and I actually needed the power, I'd buy one of those puppies over a Mac any day.

    The 25 Gbits per second should hit the top at something about 3,125 Gbytes per second, of course RDMA should have some kind of overhead too, but that was freaking awesome anyway, need more of this content, time for a try on remake of the all flash array.
