Business Wire
Hitachi Data Systems Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of
Hitachi, Ltd. (NYSE:HIT) (TSE:6501), today announced that it has
expanded its portfolio of Hitachi Compute Systems with the addition
of the new Hitachi Compute Blade 500. The new blade server is the
first Hitachi Data Systems product to incorporate the latest Intel®
Xeon® processor E5-2600. The open, flexible architecture and
high-performance, high-availability features of Hitachi Compute
Blade 500 make it an ideal platform for virtualized infrastructures
and demanding cloud applications.
“Hitachi Compute Blade 500 is a further step in our server
strategy to help customers reduce integration efforts and
accelerate time to production for critical applications,” said
Roberto Basilio, vice president, Infrastructure Platforms Product
Management, Hitachi Data Systems. “Tight integration with Hitachi
Data Systems storage and industry-standard data networking systems
together with connection to common data center management
frameworks speeds deployment and reduces total cost of ownership.
We are already working with major software vendors to develop
converged data center solutions with Hitachi Compute Blade 500 that
will deliver added value, optimized performance and predictable
scalability.”
Hitachi Compute Blade 500 is a high-density 6U rack mount blade
server system with a chassis that supports up to 8 server blades
with associated I/O and management hardware. Like all Hitachi
Compute Systems, the new blade server features native logical
partition (LPAR) technology implemented in firmware. LPAR
technology is typically associated with more expensive high-end
enterprise platforms and is a reflection of the extensive
experience and mainframe heritage of Hitachi Data Systems. An ideal
complement to host-based virtualization, LPAR technology improves
optimization of resources, and lets customers decrease overhead
costs and increase manageability, reliability and performance.
Hitachi Compute Blade 500 supports the co-existence of its native
logical partitioning capabilities and different software
hypervisors in the same chassis, bringing increased efficiency and
flexibility to the data center.
Hitachi Compute Blade 500 also introduces a new state-of-the-art
embedded 10 Gigabit Ethernet switch designed to increase
scalability and enhance virtual machine (VM) mobility, further
simplifying management and significantly reducing operational
overhead of virtualized blade server environments. The new switch
has a non-blocking, cut-through architecture for industry-leading
performance and ultra-low latency, and dual speed (1Gbps/10Gbps)
capable external ports.
The open, high-performance and flexible architecture of Hitachi
Compute Blade 500 allows the system to be easily configured for a
mix of virtualized applications and converged platform solutions.
Server resources can be dynamically reallocated to match workload
changes, and high levels of availability are achieved through
features such as redundancy, hot-swap and automated cold standby
failover.
Today’s announcement builds on a foundation of more than 50
years of innovation and leadership in the enterprise server market.
Hitachi Compute Blade 500 joins the existing portfolio of Hitachi
Compute Systems, which includes Hitachi Compute Blade 2000 and
Hitachi Compute Blade 320. The portfolio also includes a family of
rack-optimized servers, Hitachi Compute Rack, that are the
foundation for dedicated, packaged solutions such as the company’s
award-winning object store, Hitachi Content Platform (HCP).
Hitachi Compute Systems are ideal servers upon which to build
converged data center solutions. These solutions combine Hitachi
Data Systems storage, compute and industry-standard data networking
systems, and are pre-configured and optimized for leading
applications such as Microsoft® Exchange 2010, SAP HANA™ and
solutions with VMware. The seamless management integration of
converged data center solutions from Hitachi Data Systems lets
applications be deployed faster and with more predictability. This
integration also creates operational efficiencies that can reduce
costs and improve centralized management of enterprise application
implementations. New converged data center solutions that feature
Hitachi Compute Blade 500 will be made available in the coming
months.
