Fujitsu's rolls out Blade Technology for SMEs
Fujitsu has announced the global availability of blade server technology PRIMERGY BX400, designed especially for smaller and mid-size businesses that are looking for scalable efficiencies and consolidation. It is a fully-featured blade system built from the ground up as a user-friendly and versatile infrastructure designed for midsized customers with large computing and storage requirements, including branch offices.
The PRIMERGY BX400 is a green datacenter in a box, providing an optimum combination of up to eight server or storage blades in a small enclosure, supported by a comprehensive set of solutions and services. It combines leading-edge technology, such as a fully integrated virtual storage appliance using technology from Fujitsu's partnership with NetApp, with impressive input/output flexibility and bandwidth known from the PRIMERGY BX900 "Dynamic Cube" blade system introduced last year.
Mehul Doshi, Country Manager - Enterprise Servers, Fujitsu India, says, "Midsize companies with large data volumes have similar IT needs to enterprises, but are more constrained by available IT expertise and budgets. The PRIMERGY BX400 is a complete Dynamic Infrastructure of up to eight servers and storage blades as well as network components supplemented with Fujitsu services extended into the cloud with Dynamic Services. Its small size is ideally suited for midsized companies with big computing and storage needs, needing no specialized power, cooling, or IT expertise."
Easy to install and manage, the PRIMERGY BX400 allows companies to spend less time on set-up and management and instead focus on the core business processes essential for profitability. Simplified lifecycle management reduces daily operational costs by up to 60 per cent.
