Enabling the Data Center of the Future

IT managers are constantly trying to maintain the precarious balance of extreme density and system reliability. In an average data center density is typically limited by cooling capabilities and platform infrastructure; push either of those restraints too far and system reliability suffers. With the BladeRack® 2 X-Series, empowered by patented Vertical Cooling Technology™, Verari Systems has delivered the means to get the best of both worlds; extreme, unrivaled density with the highest levels of performance and reliability.

The density of the BladeRack 2 X-Series is also extremely versatile with solutions that can be configured to excel in real world applications across the enterprise computing landscape. For situations such as grid computing or web serving, the BladeRack 2 XM is an ideal solution with its remarkable ability to house 96 blade servers totaling up to 768 processing cores. For customers that require advanced features such as robust management or redundant power, such as financial services customers for Monte Carlo simulations, the BladeRack 2 XT is often ideal because of its advanced feature set combined with remarkable density.

In some situations, such as Web 2.0 applications or digital content creation, massive amounts of storage capacity and extreme processing power are needed. The BladeRack 2 XL delivers both in an ultra-dense integrated solution. Able to employ up to 864 processing cores or 672TB of storage per platform, the BladeRack 2 XL is the industry’s densest platform that supports both storage and compute solutions.


Density

The greater the density of a system, the greater the heat production from microprocessors and power supplies. Processors alone are responsible for 75% to 80% of the heat that needs to be dissipated. The glaring downside of front-to-back cooling (front-to-back cooling is the most common method used by our competitors) is that it simply won’t evolve to handle the next generation processors at current density levels.

The BladeRack 2 X-Series from Verari Systems was built specifically to solve the data center cooling problem, allowing for unrivaled density and enabling the Green Data Center. Maximizing data center airflow allows chip manufacturers the flexibility to create faster and hotter chips to run the world’s most demanding applications more efficiently.

Vertical Cooling Technology

Empowered by Verari Systems' patented Vertical Cooling Technology, data centers are able to utilize much more dense solutions while maintaining the highest levels of performance and reliability.

By placing the BladeRack 2 directly on top of the perforated floor tiles, our Vertical Cooling Technology eliminates hot air aisles in the data center. This allows the customer to maximize their real estate investment by getting the most out of their square footage.
