HP Advances Scale-Out Computing with Breakthrough Data Center Solution

By ChannelWorld Bureau Thu, Jul 02, 2009

HP launched the Extreme Scale-Out (ExSO) portfolio designed to deliver a new magnitude of cost and resource savings for businesses involved in Web 2.0, cloud and high-performance computing.The HP ExSO portfolio, claims the vendor, would help customers reduce costs, improve facility efficiency and dramatically accelerate time to market on a massive scale. At the core of the HP ExSO portfolio is the HP ProLiant SL server family, which uses a “skinless” systems architecture that replaces the traditional chassis and rack form factors with an extremely lightweight rail and tray design. HP claims that with the ProLiant SL portfolio, customers can cut acquisition costs by 10 percent and power draw by 28 percent, while doubling their compute density.

“Customers with scale-out business models need solutions that make every dollar, watt and square foot in the data center count,” said Rajesh Dhar, Director, Industry Standard Servers, Technology Solutions Group, HP India. “The HP ProLiant SL offers pioneering customers like these the most significant design innovation since the blade form factor, allowing them to achieve an economy of scale never before possible,” he added.

The solution offers customers certain benefits which include energy savings, modular configurations and reduced cost-to-scale.

In addition to this, The HP Datacenter Environmental Edge solution reportedly offers a complete visual mapping of environmental variables so customers can quickly identify and take action on data center inefficiencies. HP Datacenter Environmental Edge uses a system of wireless sensors placed throughout a data center to monitor a variety of variables, such as temperature, humidity, air pressure and power utilization.

Additional new services for ExSO environments reportedly provide customers with a customized engagement experience through their entire technology lifecycle. ExSO services include scheduled on-site repair options, on-site seed inventory of parts and installation services specifically designed for environments that support thousands of servers. These services can be customized to match customer needs.
