Fujitsu announced the availability of blade server technology designed especially for smaller and mid-size businesses that are looking for scalable efficiencies and consolidation. The new PRIMERGY BX400 is a fully-featured blade system built from the ground up as a user-friendly and versatile infrastructure designed for midsized customers with large computing and storage requirements.

The company said this blade system is a green datacentre in a box, providing an optimum combination of up to eight server or storage blades in a small enclosure, supported by a comprehensive set of solutions and services. It combines leading-edge technology, such as a fully integrated virtual storage, using technology from Fujitsu’s partnership with NetApp, with impressive input/output flexibility and bandwidth.

Easy to install and manage, this blade server allows companies to spend less time on set-up and management and instead focus on the core business processes essential for profitability.

Fujitsu said the PRIMERGY BX400 helps businesses increase productivity via greater IT efficiency and drives down costs for storage and computing requirements. It reduces power bills by up to 30 per cent, and since it also emits less heat, also minimises the strain on air conditioning, while cutting CO2 emissions.

Businesses also benefit from the PRIMERGY family’s scalable and modular infrastructure, as well as from Fujitsu’s extensive range of global infrastructure services.

The consolidated design makes this system more affordable than other blade servers on the market, while saving office space. As small and midsized companies often have restricted available space, two different system versions of the PRIMERGY BX400 allow for flexibility to fit various environments, the company said.

Fujitsu’s PRIMERGY BX400 supports all current and previous versions of popular operating systems like Windows and Linux, as well as common hypervisors like Microsoft HyperV, VMware and Citrix Xen.

Fujitsu computers and servers are available from Merlin Computers.
