HP Blade Servers

A blade server is a compact, high-density server that has its own CPU and memory, but that shares networking cables, switches, power, and storage with other blade servers in an enclosure designed specifically to house and manage them. The servers, the enclosure, and all the components of the integrated rack work together as a seamless unit increasing efficiency and reducing costs by eliminating many of the overlapping resources often required to run stacks of individual rack servers.

Blade server systems can help businesses operate efficiently, grow flexibly, and control costs effectively by delivering a unique combination of benefits that traditional rack-based systems simply cannot match. These benefits include:

• Better manageability: A large administrative staff isn't required to run your infrastructure
• Easy expansion: Additional servers can be brought on line rapidly
• Built-in redundancy: Your data is better protected and availability is increased
• High density: More processing power can be stored in a smaller space
• Affordability: More capital is preserved for other strategic business initiatives

PLANIT Technology Group's experienced engineers can provide a demonstration of this product in our technology lab. Once you see how well it works, PLANIT Technology Group can create a customized statement of work to install the blades in your environment and can train your staff to properly manage them moving forward.
