HP ProLiant BL45p Server

Overview

The ProLiant BL45p four-processor server blade is designed for enterprise availability and mission-critical applications and features AMD Opteron™ 800 Series processors, SAN storage capability, and four gigabit NICs standard. The BL45p also shares the same infrastructure components as all other p-Class server blades.

The ProLiant BL45p delivers optional Fibre Channel support for SAN implementations and clustering capabilities. Through SAN implementation with the ProLiant BL45p, 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 BL45p. The ProLiant BL45p is optimized for HP StorageWorks and is also compatible with a variety of third party storage vendors.

Ideal Environment

Managing costs and increasing efficiency
  • Reduce acquisition costs when compared to traditional servers. HP BladeSystem is a better design for density, power distribution, availability, and cooling.
  • Dynamically adapt to changing business requirements by being able to install, provision, and re-purpose server blades quickly.
Optimized for Environments of all types
  • Consolidation - HP BladeSystem combines servers, storage, power, and interconnects into an advanced management framework, improving collaboration processes.
  • SMP to Linux migration - Reduce the overall platform/system cost by up to 70%.
  • Multi-tiered environments - This includes web and E-commerce, streaming media, mail and messaging, enterprise applications including ERP and CRM.
  • High Performance Technical Computing (HPTC) - technical computation clusters including life sciences, CAE, 'visualization' clusters for entertainment or oil/gas, financial and portfolio analysis.
Virtualized and Automated Data Centers
  • HP BladeSystem environments provide virtual pools of capacity that can be dynamically reallocated and simply managed.
  • Self-aware, policy driven environment eliminates manual processes, server blade automation leverages the integrated design and virtualized architecture to create a dynamic, scaleable utility of resources.
