Case Study: Taboola achieves hands-off management of 10,000+ servers and 99% faster deployments with Dell Technologies

iDRAC Provides Powerful Capabilities for Taboola

Taboola, the world’s leading content discovery platform, needed a scalable way to run and monitor more than 10,000 server nodes across nine global data centers with just 12 site reliability engineers. To meet that challenge it turned to Dell Technologies, deploying the Dell EMC Integrated Dell Remote Access Controller (iDRAC) on Dell EMC PowerEdge servers (including R740xd and FX series) for centralized, remote management.

Dell Technologies’ iDRAC and PowerEdge combination automated server deployment, firmware/BIOS updates, hardware monitoring and streaming metrics (via Redfish and RACADM), enabling hands-off administration and proactive alerts. The result: Taboola manages 10,000+ nodes with only 12 engineers, achieves up to a 99% reduction in admin-attended deployment time, cuts onsite interventions, frees IT staff for higher-value projects, and gains energy and operational efficiencies.
