Virtually a VMware Dynamo:
Aberdeen unveils Nehalem SSD Server at NAB 2009
Santa Fe Springs, California, April 20,
2009: Aberdeen Servers and Storage proudly announces the innovative
VMware certified 1U server. Featuring the Intel Xeon Nehalem processor, the Stirling
118m server emphasizes unprecedented processor performance, dynamic
virtualization and
improved SSD storage capabilities.
By optimizing Aberdeen's 1U server with the next generation of
storage drives
— flash-based solid-state
disk (SSD) drives
—
the Stirling becomes ideal for deployments requiring high
performance computing, virtual servers or video rendering farms. The Stirling
118m will be on display at the NAB Show and Conference at the Las Vegas
Convention Center in booth #SL10225 from April 20-23, 2009. In addition to
producing a complete line of Intel® based Xeon® Stirling servers, Aberdeen
offers NAS and storage servers with the scalability beyond 400TB.
"The inventive Stirling 118m delivers high computing performance and
ultra fast solid state drives
which translate into higher stability and mind numbing seek-times," says Jack
Tateel, Executive VP for Aberdeen.
Aberdeen utilizes the Intel® Xeon® Series 5500 processor to
combine the best performance and highest reliability in a customizable 1U
short depth server. Together with the superb designs from Supermicro
Computer, Inc.,
Aberdeen offers its highly flexible 1U quad-core Stirling 118m rackmount
server as a solution for the SSD and HDD markets. The Stirling 118m
server not only provides eight Intel Extreme solid state drives (SSD), it also
can be configured with up to 2.4TB of SATA or SAS storage.
Based on the Intel® X58 Express (Tylersburg) chipset, the new
Xeon hyper-threading processors achieve new levels of performance with up
to 2.25 times better performance than the previous generation.
The Stirling 118m grants significant reduction in operating costs with
lower power consumption and can achieve a rapid return on investment.
By furnishing a lower cost of ownership and delivering greater
throughput capability, Aberdeen's Xeon server provides an entry point in
the high performance 1U SSD server market.
The ability to include VMware will help to manage servers in
mission-critical environments by providing a seamless, flexible and
dynamic environment of consolidation. The Stirling 118m will support up to a
single Intel Xeon 6.4 GigaTransfer per second QuickPath Interconnect
processor, 24GB of DDR3 memory,
on board RAID, dual
Gigabit Ethernet ports, a 560W power supply and all housed in a short depth
20" chassis.
