INFOGRAPHIC:
Servers host applications, manage files and perform analytics. Any organization can benefit from the power and versatility that servers provide, but it can be difficult to know which types of server hardware to choose. In this infographic, we take a look into the major types of servers, their advantages and disadvantages.
CASE STUDY:
This case study details how virtualization enabled one company to achieve 99.999 percent availability. Find out how the decision to virtualize paved the way for a private cloud and gain insight into various managed service offerings available.
EGUIDE:
What decisions go into building a modern data center? This e-guide discusses the data center design decisions. Inside, you will find discussions on three interface options for remote server monitoring and management, and the differences between blade and rack servers.
EGUIDE:
This expert e-Guide discusses how HP developed a blade server to add to their high performance computing portfolio (HPC) and that has the ability to simplify configuration, deployment and management for HPC clusters.
CASE STUDY:
When Opus Interactive needed to provide customers with a cost-efficient, highly available pay-as-you-grow server and storage model, they turned to HP ProLiant server blades, the HP LeftHand P4000 SAN, and VMware. As a result there was 75% reduction in customer cost per server and higher availability.
WHITE PAPER:
This whitepaper provides an overview of the networking architecture for VMware Infrastructure 3 on Dell PowerEdge blade servers. It provides best practices for deploying and configuring your network in the VMware environment.
WHITE PAPER:
Applications such as high performance computing, Web 2.0 and cloud technologies are beginning to require similar features in the data center, including high density, serviceability and power efficiency. Find out how a shared infrastructure can meet these requirements, while providing significant TCO savings.
CASE STUDY:
In this case study Emerson virtualizes on Dell servers, eliminating 3,600 servers, reducing approximately 135 data centers down to 4, and decreasing the operating cost of its Windows server environment by 15 percent per year.
WHITE PAPER:
This paper looks at the options IT managers have for hosting enterprise applications when replacing end-of-life POWER 4 or 5 servers. It compares an HP Converged Infrastructure, based on HP Integrity and Proliant server blades, to approaches based on IBM POWER. It also addresses customer options for business-critical application migration.
