HPE has introduced the HPE Compute Scale-up Server 3250, a new purpose-built server designed for in-memory databases and mission-critical enterprise applications requiring high scalability, resilience, and real-time performance. Powered by Intel Xeon 6 processors, the system is the first scale-up server validated by the SAP BW Edition HANA benchmark with at least 48 TB of memory and can scale from four to 16 sockets while supporting up to 64 TB of DDR5 memory. Targeted at demanding workloads such as enterprise resource planning, customer relationship management, financial services applications, analytics, and emerging agentic AI environments, the server is engineered to deliver faster transactions and real-time insights without compromising operational performance.

“HPE Compute Scale-up Server 3250 raises the bar for business-critical infrastructure,” said Krista Satterthwaite, senior vice president and general manager, Compute at HPE. “Designed for complex business applications like enterprise resource planning and customer relationship management systems, this system helps customers in ways competitive offerings cannot – allowing them to run faster transactions, gain insights in real time, and support analytics without slowing down business.” The server also features a dedicated external node controller that delivers performance up to 100 times faster than Ethernet-based scale-out deployments. Security and resiliency are integrated throughout the platform via HPE Integrated Lights Out (iLO), including silicon root of trust, post-quantum cryptography protection, advanced memory error correction, and fault-tolerant uptime capabilities for zero-downtime enterprise operations.
