Hi guys, they noted that server is small and will replace with another one I have a doubt cause i prefer intell, but anyone with hardware experience could help? the question is, considering database workload what you prefer: amd opteron or intel xeon processors?
if you already have intel machines stay at intel and the reason is simple: if you ever consider virtualization with HA you can't mix AMD/Intel in the cluster because you need to mask cpu capabilities for the oldest hardware in the cluster to make live migration possible that's only supported with all hosts in the cluster Intel or AMD but not mixed and honestly from the performance you will hardly notice any difference, if you do so your hardware is still too slow for the workload
