The Voyageur 12000 with the AMD Opteron™ 6000 Series platform is the right server for real-world workloads that are increasingly complex and demanding.

Based on the next-generation AMD Direct Connect Architecture 2.0 with up to 48 total cores in a 4P configuration, this platform more than doubles the memory bandwidth and provides nearly 2x the I/O bandwidth of previous generation 2P and 4P servers, helping research institutions, enterprises and small or medium-sized businesses tackle complex jobs with greater throughput, exceptional value and readiness to scale.

AMD offers a consistent platform with Direct Connect Architecture 2.0, building on previous power, virtualization and memory innovations while delivering additional new features and with planned socket compatibility for the next-generation of AMD server technology.
