ABSTRACT:
The modularization, use of space and manageability of blades make them an excellent option for consolidating servers while also laying a strong foundation for the future. This webcast offers a starting point for evaluating why blades might be a great fit into your environment. Listen to this podcast to learn some of the reasons why blades are right for you, including:
  • Space, Power & Cooling issues - blades offer significant space savings compared to rack-mounted servers
  • Reduced complexity - reduce the number of components to manage
  • Manageability - pre-wiring already done for network and management connections
  • Serviceability - ease of blade replacement, etc.

In addition, learn how the Dell PowerEdge M-Series blade servers with Intel Xeon Processors address data center pain points by delivering one of the most manageable, flexible, and energy efficient blade server products on the market. Designed from the ground up to help customers be more efficient with their time, budget, power consumption, data center resources, and performance, Dell's blade solution allows users to focus on what matters most: growing their business or organization.
