HP ProLiant BL25p Server

Overview

The ProLiant BL25p dual-processor server blade, engineered for enterprise performance and scalability, features AMD Opteron™ 200 Series processors with single- and dual-core technology, SAN storage capability, and four gigabit NICs standard. The BL25p also shares the same infrastructure components as all other HP BladeSystem p-Class server blades.

The ProLiant BL25p delivers optional Fibre Channel support for SAN implementations and clustering capabilities. Through SAN implementation with the ProLiant BL25p, customers can achieve improved data availability, easily scale capacity, and realize management cost savings from consolidating disk resources. In addition, with HP's fusion of SAN and NAS (Network Attached Storage), customers can design a storage architecture that incorporates application, database and file serving solution functionality. Fibre Channel capability is achieved using a Dual Port Fibre Channel Mezzanine Card (2Gb) specifically designed for the ProLiant BL25p. The ProLiant BL25p is optimized for HP StorageWorks and is also compatible with a variety of third party storage vendors.
