IBM and Intel IBM and Intel are working together to find solutions to your biggest datacenter challenges. Underutilized servers are driving up energy usage and causing unnecessary management headaches. IBM System x™ and BladeCenter® running the latest Intel® Xeon® processors with second-generation quad-core technology offer you greater energy-efficiency, along with the multitasking performance necessary to maximize your virtualization efforts and enable best-in-class reliability. IBM System x As business changes and additional services are needed, IT departments require more resources and energy to operate. In the past, this dilemma was addressed by adding more servers to handle the volume. Now there is a scalable, energy-efficient answer. The IBM System x3850 M2 gets up to 27% more virtualization performance per watt versus HP's ProLiant DL580 G5, so it can not only help increase the performance of your applications, but will allow you to help minimize the energy needed to run those applications1. Add the virtualization capabilities of VMware Infrastructure 3 and you can significantly improve the utilization of your x86 servers from 10% up to 80%. IBM BladeCentre Some companies spend up to half of their IT operating budgets on datacenter power and cooling. IBM BladeCenter, with Intel® Xeon® processors, gives you more control over energy efficiency with IBM Cool Blue™ technologies, a comprehensive portfolio of energy management tools. One specific technology, IBM Systems Director Active Energy Manager™, allows you to monitor and control power consumption while providing an accurate picture of your energy needs. Plus, the new power virtualization feature allows you to take power from servers that don’t need it all and allocate it to new servers. This can help you achieve better cost control and performance within your power limits. |
