Can you afford a "cheap" blade?

When selecting a provider for enterprise computing solutions it might be tempting to go with Dell or another low initial cost blade server vendor. Let me warn you of this trap first hand, lower initial costs often mean a much higher TCO shortly down the road.

With Verari Systems BladeRack 2 X-Series storage and compute solutions you get a plethora of choices on everything from the power subsystem of the platform to the components that make up the individual blades. This extreme level of customization allows us to tailor a solution to your situation that makes the most economic sense for you. One size does not fit all and we don’t try to make it. Custom solutions create an environment that is conducive to efficiency and stability.

The efficiency of our solutions is where Verari Systems can really save you some serious money. Power costs continue to skyrocket and no ones system – I mean no ones – can compare to the efficiency of the BladeRack 2 X-Series. The efficiency of the platform is only the beginning of the power savings our customers experience. Due to our patented Vertical Cooling Technology, the need to keep ambient air cool in the data center is eliminated, enabling your power to go to compute rather than to cool the room. It has been estimated that in many common data centers the majority of the power goes to cool rather than compute, with the BladeRack 2 this trend is drastically reversed.

The long term TCO of using inefficient, poorly cooled and low initial cost blades is dramatically higher than utilizing a well designed, eco-conscious solution from Verari Systems that will save your organization money for years to come. We continue to research and develop new proven technologies and innovations that allow customers to focus on their core business and their customers’ core business – not their IT infrastructure.

Our unyielding commitment to eco-conscious innovation in the enterprise computing industry is characterized by the technologies we develop and patent like our Vertical Cooling Technology that not only save our customers money but also lighten the burden on the environment. Our ongoing commitment to virtualization is just another example of our dedication to reducing customers total cost of ownership and increasing versatility.

Service and Support is an area that is often neglected when considering the cost of an enterprise solution. Before you select a provider for your data center ask yourself what kind of support they offer for the times things may not be running as they should. Our world class service team is available to keep you and your customers protected 24/7.

Taking all of this into account ask yourself if you can afford solution that might (and often doesn’t) cost less initially or if the long term implications of poor design are just too expensive.
