Understanding Redundancy in Dell PowerEdge Blade Servers
Overview By consolidating servers, infrastructure components, and management within a single chassis, Dell PowerEdge blade servers can help achieve high efficiency in the data center and provide an optimized rack environment. Blade server deployment requires careful planning of data center resources such as power, networking, infrastructure fabric, cooling, and management access - and the blade server architecture differs from monolithic servers in its possible redundant configurations. The system chassis used in today's monolithic servers hosts a single compute node with one or more CPUs, local storage, network, and other infrastructure components such as management access, power, and cooling. Redundancy options for monolithic servers range from cooling to network redundancy, thereby eliminating single points of failure.
