EGUIDE:
This expert e-guide provides a comparison of blade and rack servers. Find out what key factors you should consider in your hardware decision and learn how to prevent sprawl through effective server consolidation.
EGUIDE:
This expert e-guide offers a discussion of the different types of converged infrastructure and provides an overview of their advantages for IT environments. The paper goes on to introduce converged infrastructure hardware and the advantages offered by its use of four types of virtualization.
WHITE PAPER:
IT organizations that find server deployment complex and inefficient are looking at new options, such as HP's BladeSystem Matrix. Using this converged infrastructure approach, organizations can reduce acquisition costs for servers, storage and network infrastructure, while reducing total cost of ownership.
WHITE PAPER:
Read this paper and discover the reliability, availability and serviceability (RAS) features of HP Integrity Systems: Superdome 2, BL8x0c, and rx2800 i2.
WHITE PAPER:
This white paper describes the variety of desktop virtualization models available, how each works, and the advantages and limitations of each model for key vectors such as security, manageability, and power consumption. Also identified are the major providers of software solutions and the end-point devices to deploy each model.
WHITE PAPER:
Access this research report for an in-depth comparison of Cisco's UCS and IBM Flex System integrated system offerings. This report focuses on areas such as extended memory servers, blade and rack designs, performance, systems management, and more!
CASE STUDY:
In this case study Emerson virtualizes on Dell servers, eliminating 3,600 servers, reducing approximately 135 data centers down to 4, and decreasing the operating cost of its Windows server environment by 15 percent per year.
WHITE PAPER:
Applications such as high performance computing, Web 2.0 and cloud technologies are beginning to require similar features in the data center, including high density, serviceability and power efficiency. Find out how a shared infrastructure can meet these requirements, while providing significant TCO savings.
WHITE PAPER:
This Intel paper analyzes the effects of various factors on the utilization of the primary server resources: compute, memory and I/O. The analysis shows that 4-socket servers, which provide greater headroom than 2-socket servers, may be preferable in a number of situations.
WHITE PAPER:
Check out this exclusive resource to find out how Cisco's Unified Computing System measures up against IBM's Flex System, both of which have blade environments.
