Intel® Blade Servers
Blade servers offer the opportunity to increase the density of high-performance computing power
while actually simplifying system deployment and management.
The Aspen Systems Glacier XeonTM Blade Server
is a cutting-edge blade server based on the
Intel® XeonTM
It packs an enormous amount of performance, flexibility, and serviceability features
into an extremely thin form-factor, helping you expand performance while extending
limited computing resources.
The Intel Server Compute Blade includes a wealth of features that deliver
scalable performance, deployment flexibility, and easy serviceability.
