In shipping VMware Infrastructure 3 on PRIMERGY BladeFrame servers, Fujitsu Siemens Computers introduced the ultimate platform for flexible virtualization within the data center. In combining software from VMware with PRIMERGY BladeFrame, Fujitsu Siemens Computers delivers a highly-available platform that provides real I/O virtualization and reduces complexity in the data center.

The virtualization boom has revolutionized data centers, accelerating the shift from fixed, unresponsive, locked-down server resources to dynamic data centers of the future, where server resources are allocated according to demand and are reconfigured on-the-fly to guarantee that they always provide the best-possible levels of availability.

Introducing the data center software virtualization platform to the highly-versatile PRIMERGY BladeFrame line means that Fujitsu Siemens Computers and VMware are delivering the industry’s ultimate platform for data center virtualization, bar none.

In shipping VMware Infrastructure 3 on PRIMERGY BladeFrame, customers are provided with a platform designed to support large-scale virtualized deployments of critical applications with high levels of availability and scalability. Through enabling data center consolidation of hardware resources, IT managers are able to maximize the use of their resources and also reduce power and cooling costs for physical IT equipment.

PRIMERGY BladeFrame's built-in N:1 failover and simple, reliable disaster recovery capabilities mean it ideally complements virtualization deployments. In addition, the server’s PAN Manager software provides policy-based automation plus full monitoring and management capabilities.
