Dubai. Fujitsu Siemens Computers announced the release of its PRIMERGY S2 rack and tower servers, which offer IT managers greater flexibility and performance for their server farms, while ensuring 'peace of mind' by protecting application investment and providing easier server management.
Fujitsu Siemens Computers is among the first vendors to offer Intel's Xeon dual processor technology with Extended Memory 64 Technology (EM64T), providing the versatility to run 32-bit and 64-bit applications. The innovative air-flow cooling technology 'cool-safe' helps to extend the life-span of servers, even in the highest density server racks and the products integrate a range of management tools to simplify the IT manager's tasks.
"The new PRIMERGY tower models (TX200 S2 / TX300 S2) and the new rack models (RX200 S2 / RX300 S2) are fully equipped to meet the needs of large and small medium-sized enterprises, who require a server that offers the highest levels of performance and reliability," said Ashraf El-Arabaty, Product Marketing Manager, Enterprise Product, Fujitsu Siemens Computers. "The new servers will enable IT managers to build a server farm that is cost effective and has the flexibility to meet the changing demands placed on today's IT infrastructures."
A distinctive feature of the new servers is the hot-plug functionality. Guaranteeing continuous platform operation and high application reliability are an array of integrated-redundancy and hot-plug features such as hot-plug disks, hot-spare memory, hot-plug power supply, hot-plug PCI-X, hot-plug redundant fans, plus RAID 5 embedded and redundant dual LAN features. The servers come bundled with the PRIMERGY ServerView Suite including remote management functions. These functions will reduce troubleshooting as well as the cost of running business-critical IT at remote sites. It all adds up to highly flexible management and the lowest TCO - anywhere, anytime.
The new S2 servers also facilitate smooth transition to 64-bit computing, a must in today's technology-purchase decisions. IT managers can relax when deciding when and how to use the upcoming 64-bit computing option. All four servers come with the latest 64-bit-enabled Intel Xeon EM64T technology offering the versatility to run both 32-bit and 64-bit applications. Enterprises can thus move to 64-bit computing at their own pace while preserving their current investments.
Customers will get datacenter reliability with enough power and have the choice to work with either 32-bit or 64-bit applications. The servers are available as high-performance tower systems with flexible headroom, and as space-efficient rack systems for data-center use and are a further proof-point of the company's TRIOLE strategy for an optimized IT.
Two tower models
The PRIMERGY tower models TX200 S2 and TX300 S2 are designed for ultimate flexibility and expandability in order to grow apace with business demands, an important feature for companies with varying or growing workloads. This means plenty of headroom for expanding business activities so that customers benefit longer from their investment. The design for maximum ease of use and management has been honored with industry awards (Red Dot Award 2003 and IF Award 2004). The new TX servers' proven data-center technology is the answer to the high-capacity needs of core business applications as well as of business-critical remote sites. Since corporate infrastructure is subject to consolidation changes, a universal tower-to-rack conversion kit (Tower servers can be converted into a rack) configuration is available to protect customers' investments.
Two rack-based models
The PRIMERGY rack models RX200 S2 and RX300 S2 are suitable for an IT strategy like TRIOLE that seeks to downsize data-center infrastructure costs. They enhance the transparency of structure and maximize investment utilization. The rack servers pack the capacity of a fully featured departmental server into a slim space-saving rack design. Even more important than the best performance-per-unit-of-height is ease of management for ongoing cost optimization and operational efficiency. Consolidation strategies for corporate applications in data center server farms with central deployment and control are optimally supported by the new RX servers' features.
