As the green agenda moves forward and we all start looking for
ways to maximise our investments in infrastructure, the recent
rise in blade technology will not fail to register on your
radar. Blade technology puts all your server, power and storage needs
in to one compact unit and is no longer just a tool for the big
data centres either.
New products are now hitting the market aimed squarely at the IT
requirements of schools, and as ever, EICTS have been
negotiating hard to make sure that the prices will not upset
your budget.
Some of the benefits of blade technology:
▪
Reduced space requirements
▪
Reduced Power consumption
▪
Shared storage, processing & RAM (when using virtualisation)
