The box consumes about 325 watts, is relatively portable and provides enough performance to act as a DNS server or a data center for a small business (although since it’s relatively portable, data theft becomes a distinct possibility.) Pike uses it to test ideas and software for clients of Dell’s Data Center Solutions’ Group, which sells custom-built servers to hyperscale computing clients such as Facebook, noted. [...]

“provides enough performance to act as a DNS server or a data center for a small business”.

DNS server for a small business? He could easily run several DNS servers, and a load more of other VMs running every service under the sun if he virtualized that platform.

I think it’s a couple of servers in a box, not a data center. With virtualization software, presumably it can act like a dozen or more servers, but that still does not qualify as a “data center” in my book.
All of which is not to say that it’s not interesting. It is; it’s just misnamed.
