In today’s business environment, organizations face mounting challenges in managing customer relationships while maintaining data control and cost efficiency. Choosing the right CRM solution increasingly involves exploring hybrid business application models - blending on-premises capabilities with cloud scalability to achieve the best of both worlds.
Hybrid deployments allow organizations to store sensitive customer data locally to meet strict regulatory and data sovereignty requirements while leveraging cloud services for analytics, automation, and remote collaboration. This approach ensures compliance without sacrificing innovation or global accessibility.
Moreover, hybrid architecture offers a strategic response to rising cloud costs. By running core operations on local infrastructure and extending capacity through the cloud when needed, organizations can optimize costs, maintain predictable budgeting, and scale resources dynamically.
The Lenovo ThinkAgile MX650 V4 is the ideal platform to run Microsoft business applications hosted on Azure local - it is a high-performance, dual-socket 2U rack server designed specifically for hybrid Azure cloud deployments.
This technical brief highlights the MX650 V4's integration with Azure Local, enabling organizations to run services directly within their on-premises infrastructure. The server is configured with 6th Generation Intel® Xeon® Scalable processors (up to 86 cores and 172 threads), DDR5 6400 MT/s (1 DIMM per channel) or 5200 MT/s (2 DIMMs per channel) memory, and high-performance NVMe drives among a variety of storage options, including support for the PCIe 5.0 standard devices for I/O. These new processors from Intel also offer support for MRDIMMs and CXL 2.0 memory.
