Blade servers and systems - installation in Kharkiv, price

Blade systems

The blade system is a reliable, adaptive IT infrastructure with a high degree of performance, scalability and speed of information processing. Designed to solve an unlimited range of tasks in the banking sector, research institutes, government departments, industrial sectors, educational institutions and businesses in the framework of creating fail-safe cluster solutions.

Blade System Components:

• chassis;
• server blade (“blade”);
• Power supplies;
• switching devices;
• active and passive cooling systems;
• control modules.

The necessary set of servers is placed in the backplane.

Components of blade server:

• motherboard;
• control modules;
• switching devices;
• processors;
• passive cooling system;
• RAM;
• network cards;
• auxiliary components.

Power supplies and an active cooling system are located in the chassis. Blade footprints are also located here.

Advantages of Blade Systems

• high density increases computing power, increases scalability and flexibility;
• compact installation of powerful servers takes up a small area;
• minimization of auxiliary parts helps to tidy up the cable infrastructure;
• fault tolerance (hot replacement of a faulty element, interchangeability of components and quick installation of new “blades”);
• reduced load on IT staff;
• reduced energy costs.

SOLTI develops projects taking into account the specifics of the Customer’s field of activity and uses the latest achievements of vendors in the field of high density servers.

Buying an MX7000 blade server means getting the right combination of proven technology with innovative PowerEdge server line solutions. Dell EMC’s new high-performance modular infrastructure delivers sophisticated business challenges while lowering the cost of upgrading and maintaining server hardware.
