Fujitsu has announced the launch of Cloud eXtension server – PRIMERGY CX100 – with optimized scale-out capability for cloud environments, designed to optimize the operating cost drivers of power, heat and space.
The PRIMERGY CX1000 is designed from the ground up to deliver as much computing power as possible per square metre, at the lowest possible price, packing 38 server nodes into a rack to provide minimum savings of 20 per cent in power and cooling in comparison to a standard rack server assembly.Â
Â
The PRIMERGY CX adds a new class of server to the current Fujitsu x86 lineup of PRIMERGY blade (BX), rack (RX) and tower (TX) models, and becomes a cornerstone of Fujitsu’s overall Infrastructure-as-a-Service strategy with which we take another step on the way to a service-oriented, platform-based delivery model for IT services.
Â
“Cloud computing demands have caught datacenter operators in a vicious circle of performance and cost,” says Pallab Talukdar, CEO, Fujitsu India. “Today, the battles are being won and lost on the plains of price performance. With the PRIMERGY CX1000, we are introducing a solution that goes beyond the scale-out performance envelope of rack servers – without blowing budgets – which is especially compelling in Cloud computing environments.”
Â
The PRIMERGY CX1000 system features the new-generation Intel Xeon processor 5600 series, which delivers unprecedented levels of processing power.Â
