Fujitsu Siemens Primergy RXI300

Fujitsu Siemens Primergy RXI300 ... 2-way server. The restrictions of the familiar 32-bit architecture are slowly reached by various applications. The performance and configuration requirements that can only be met with the 32-bit architecture with great difficulty, if at all, are being provided with an ideal platform in the shape of the Itanium 2.

With the new Itanium2 processor architecture, Intel offers a 64-bit platform with growing support from major Independent Software Vendors. The release of Microsoft Windows Server 2003 64-bit Edition as well as the availability of the 64bit version of Microsoft SQL Server will further boost the penetration of Itanium2-based systems in the high-end server market. Combined with software solutions e.g. for ERP which extensively utilize the new features of the Itanium2 processor, complete 64bit solution stacks can be offered for Business Critical Computing scenarios. Customers using the RXI300 for high performance computing (hpc) for complex technical applications will benefit from the increased computing power and the enhanced suitability of the Itanium 2 for large CAE (Computer Aided Engineering) models. Among those belong applications for calculating of engineering, scientific or mathematical finance models or for educing and analyzing of data out of very large databases. But also security applications for encrypting and decrypting of data will profit a lot from the new processor technology in the PRIMERGY RXI300.

Full binary compatibility with the 32-bit hardware means that existing software can run on the Itanium 2 PRIMERGY server without problems and can achieve even more with a number of optimizations.

The PRIMERGY RXI300 rack server offers all security and high availability features required by the conceivable application scenarios. Mirrored SCSI RAID hot-plug hard disks alongside standard hot-plug redundant fans and optional redundant hot-plug power supply units are the decisive features and essential standard for high reliability in this class.
