Ideas International

There has been much talk about Blades technology over the past few years. The Blade concept emerged a few years ago and the market has grown steadily since then. Many research companies have been riding this wave, poking and prodding the architecture for strengths and weaknesses, analyzing the advantages and disadvantages, and even sizing the market as it has grown.

We thought it would be interesting to introduce another data point to assess the growth of Blades in the market. To see if that reflected the other indicators as to the growth of the market.

Check out this article which is talking about how entry level servers are being affected by blades. There’s going to be a mixture of results. It’s an interesting read, I wonder though if the demand for entry servers is set to remain, whether it’s for that developer who wants ‘a server’ on the 5th floor, or for that estate agents, who needs an email server. Granted both examples where a virtual machine, or even a bought in service might be more efficient, but where ownership of the asset, control and data rules might make owning that bit of tin easier?
