Cirrascale Begins Shipping Next Generation Rack Mountable Modular Blade Chassis
San Diego, Calif. (PRWEB) July 23, 2013 -- Cirrascale Corporation, a premier developer of build-to-order, independent blade-based computing and storage data center infrastructure for conventional and modular data centers, today announced the next generation of the company’s Modular Blade Chassis™ (“MBC”) platform. The newly upgraded Cirrascale MBC platform is an innovative, rack mountable adaptation of the company’s award-winning BladeRack® 2 X-Series platforms that utilize Vertical Cooling Technology™ to provide increased flexibility, scalability and versatility while providing the same level of reliability as its flagship blade server platforms.
“Cirrascale continuously works with our strategic partners, licensees, and customers to continually improve our individual product offerings,” said David Driggers, CEO, Cirrascale Corporation. “With our Modular Blade Chassis, customers and partners were engaged early in helping us add features that would better suit their individual data center needs. With this in mind, we’ve made some key improvements to help data center operators better install, maintain and scale these platforms.”
The next generation rack-optimized MBC platform utilizes an identical blade form factor as those used in Cirrascale’s BladeRack 2 X-Series platforms, giving customers the ability to use the same blades within multiple platforms. Each chassis is equipped to handle up to nine open-architecture blades for compute, storage, high-performance workstations, or intense GPGPU applications. Recent improvements to the architecture help to ease the platforms installation, provide improved handling and serviceability, and enable remote power management.
The next-generation Cirrascale Modular Blade Chassis platform is immediately available and is currently shipping with a variety of built-to-order compute, storage, high-performance workstation, or GPGPU blades.
