FEATURES AND BENEFITS

With the current push towards cloud computing there are a lot of design considerations and choices one has to make when implementing the platform of which hardware makes up a significant portion of the solution. The RX-1240i is a solid choice providing local expandable storage, excellent memory capabilities and greener power supplies. This means you will run a cost-efficient platform from the beginning. Whilst cloud environments don’t require a high level of fault tolerance, since your cloud software should provide self healing capabilities, we do provide the RX-1240i with redundant power units. We think this is a sensible option to
help maximise your data-center personnel time which saves cost in the long term.

Running on the latest Intel® Xeon® processor E5-2600 the RX-1240i yields a performance boost of up to 80%* over previous generation platforms.

Powered by Supermicro, the Ready To Go server range are complete systems that incorporate the latest advancements in technology to meet the demands of today’s data-driven world.

Just add software.
