Oracle’s
Sun Fire X4270 server is perfect for application virtualization, as an
infrastructure server for virtual desktop functions in departmental or branch office
settings, or for data centre consolidation projects of moderate complexity. The
open network system is designed with massive internal storage and I/O to
provide speed simplicity, and savings for consolidation and virtualization.
The Sun
Fire X4270 server is optimized for virtualization and core business
applications.
Consolidate
for Speed, Simplicity, and Savings
Not every server can meet the
demands of a consolidated workload. Oracle’s proven expertise and breakthrough
innovation can help your data center meet that challenge.
Powered by the Turbo Boost and
Hyper Threading technologies of high performance
Intel Xeon processors 5500
series, the Sun Fire X4270 server is well suited to assisting consolidation
initiatives by supporting numerous business applications, each in its own
virtualized server environment. The density of the system with large memory in
a compact 2U form factor also makes it perfect for horizontally scaled data
center consolidation needs. Leveraging onboard integrated GbE ports with Intel
I/O Acceleration; six x8 PCIe Gen 2 slots; and supporting 10 GbE, SAS, and
Fibre Channel via optional PCIe cards ensure that the system offers top network
connectivity for each virtualized server.
And the server has the
flexibility to enable you to choose between industry leading virtualization
offerings including Microsoft Hyper V, Sun xVM, and VMware.
The Sun Fire X4270 server offers
savings and reliability, with an Integrated Lights Out Manager (ILOM) service processor handling
fault isolation and error management to help ensure IT personnel will be
informed of impending problems before they evolve into service interruptions.
ILOM is integral with many industry leading management solutions, such as Sun
xVM Ops Center software and also enables standalone system management providing
a seamless fit with legacy resources if necessary. Availability is ensured with
redundant, hot swappable disks; fans; and power supplies, for maximal uptime.
