SMB Entry Level Virtualisation Solution
Entry Level Virtualised Solution
SMBs face many of the same IT challenges as larger businesses, trying to accommodate increasing demand for new IT capabilities and services.
Choosing VMware and Intel-based virtualised solutions offers SMBs increased application uptime, lower capital costs, greater staff productivity and improved data recoverability.
This is a perfect entry level virtual host platform with storage internal within the chassis. The new Intel Xeon E5620 CPUs with QPI technology and DDR3 ECC REG memory have all been designed to maximise the full potential of VMware whist saving energy and increasing performance by up to 45%.
The pedestal / 5U chassis is an Intel SC5650HCBRPR with 6 x hotswap drive bays and 2 x 5.25” bays. It has 2 x 600watt high-efficiency power supplies and 3 x non-redundant system fans. The motherboard being used is a S5520HVR which is an enterprise-level server board and will take dual Westmere CPUs and has 12 x DDR3 memory dims through 6 channels (max 96Gb) 5 x PCIe slots and 1 x PCI 32 / 33MHz slot.
The VMware software provides an all-in-one solution for small offices to virtualize three physical servers for consolidating and managing applications with a low up front investment, reducing hardware and operating costs. It delivers the performance and reliability of enterprise class solutions yet is perfect for new companies just starting their adoption of virtualization or companies using ESXi and looking to take the next step. In addition, it’s a solution built for small businesses and branch offices (<20 servers).
