   A telecommunications company is deploying PowerEdge servers at cell tower sites to run edge computing workloads for low-latency network functions. The sites have limited physical space, no cooling, and are exposed to extreme temperatures. The company also wants to centrally manage these servers and apply security updates. Which PowerEdge solution is most appropriate?

   • AA blade server chassis with high-density compute
   • BA ruggedized edge server with a wide operating temperature range and out-of-band management
   • CA standard rack server designed for data center use
   • DA tower server with maximum storage capacity

   A retail company operates 200 branch stores, each with a small server room that experiences frequent temperature fluctuations and occasional power interruptions. Each store runs a local inventory database and a point-of-sale (POS) application that must remain available even if the WAN link to the head office fails. The IT team has limited remote management tools and no on-site IT staff. Which PowerEdge server characteristic is most important when selecting a model for these branch locations?

   • AHigh core count and large memory capacity for virtualization consolidation
   • BMaximum GPU acceleration for AI inference at the edge
   • CHigh-speed NVMe storage array for low-latency database transactions
   • DRuggedized design with extended operating temperature range and out-of-band management

   A financial services firm runs a core banking application in its own data center. To handle peak transaction loads, they want to extend capacity into a public cloud provider using the same management tools and operational processes they use on-premises. The application is sensitive to network latency between its components. Which deployment approach best meets these requirements?

   • AMove the entire application to the public cloud and decommission the on-premises data center
   • BReplicate the on-premises environment to a second data center and use a public cloud only for disaster recovery
   • CUse a hybrid cloud model with on-premises PowerEdge servers and cloud resources connected via a low-latency dedicated link
   • DDeploy PowerEdge servers in the public cloud and manage them with the same tools used on-premises
