IDC Technical Brief: Enabling Technologies for Blade Management

Overview In June 2006, Hewlett-Packard (HP) announced its next-generation blade chassis, the BladeSystem c-Class, which addresses some of the total cost of ownership (TCO) issues facing today's data centers. Chief among these concerns is the need to rein in infrastructure management and administration costs. Toward that end, the company has introduced HP Insight Control, which automates key management functions and significantly reduces the time required to manage BladeSystem c-Class servers. Download this IDC Technical Brief to read more about HP Insight Control and to learn why manageability features are a critical consideration when evaluating and choosing your blade platform.

Note: Be sure to check out IDC's companion piece to this paper, Enabling Technologies for Power and Cooling, sponsored by HP.
