Fujitsu yesterday introduced the new Primergy servers Cloud eXtension. The Primergy CX1000 was f獯r developed for use in cloud environments.

The server provides rack space for 38 per server node, so the power consumption for the operation and the cooling in comparison with a standard rack-server installation is expected to decrease by at least 20 percent, so the manufacturer. The Primergy CX complements the existing line of x86 servers Primergy Blade (BX), Rack (RX) and Tower (TX) models. They are based on Intel Xeon processor series 5600.

In addition, the company presented the Cool Central architecture. This saves space because eliminates the need for the hot air corridor. Instead, the Primergy CX1000 has an internal fan, the warm air flows out through the top of the racks. This may be more Primergy CX1000 racks placed back-to-back: The area is thus reduced by up to 40%. This approach is the CO2 emissions in the data center to reduce operating and support the global environmental strategy of Fujitsu.

The server platform has been designed so that the necessities of a complete system redundancy and the components that must be exchanged during operation is minimized. Within large scale-out applications and fully virtualized environments are applications from servers that do not respond, via software running on another server and restarted. Based on standard components allows the design concept in the case of system failure, replace individual server nodes and to exchange faulty components offline.

“Cloud computing puts high demands on the operators of data centers in terms of performance and cost,” says Dr. Helmut Beck, Senior Vice President of Fujitsu LAKE. “Today, everything stands or falls with the right price-performance ratio. With the Primergy CX1000 we provide a solution that all scale-out performance surpasses traditional rack servers – here without driving the budget into the air. ”
