Fujitsu continues innovation of the blade platform
http://www.webwire.com/ViewPressRel.asp?aId=61762
Adding the BladeEngine, a unified Ethernet and iSCSI network controller to its PRIMERGY Blade Servers, Fujitsu Siemens Computers introduces advanced support for fully-virtualized datacenter environments. PRIMERGY BX600 series Server Blades, designed for the Dynamic Data Center, are systems offering the ServerEngines dual-capability 10 Gbit Ethernet and iSCSI SAN controller qualified for full virtualization operations – such as allocating networking and storage bandwidth to individual virtual machines in VMware and Xen environments.
Fujitsu Siemens Computers has fully-qualified the BladeEngineâ„¢ 10Gbit mezzanine card from ServerEngines, which enables network convergence by executing both Ethernet and iSCSI protocols on a single fabric within PRIMERGY BX600 Blade Servers. The high-performance BladeEngine delivers improvements in network throughput and storage performance, reduces host CPU utilization and extends the scalability of BX600 Server Blades by providing full, stateful hardware offload support for TCP/IP and iSCSI protocols.
Very cool, any innovation in the blade platform, or choice in the blade market has to be a good thing. Fujitsu improving their blade servers to include 10GB Ethernet and iSCSI has to be a good thing for customer choice and for the industry.
