Resource Saving ArchitectureA shared cooling, power and networking infrastructure is key to the high density and server efficiency offered by blade solutions. 6U SuperBlade takes our resource saving initiative even further with Supermicro's innovative Disaggregated Server Design that enables the independent upgrades of the compute modules without replacing the rest of the blade server components for optimal TCO. -
Data Center Friendly Design and FeaturesThe SuperBlade family comes in a variety of form-factors and can be easily deployed in almost any data center environment. This is complemented by data center friendly features and designs, including free-air cooling, Battery Backup Power (BBP®), Supermicro RSD with Redfish RESTful APIs, redundant AC or DC power supply options and more.
