Angstrom Microsystems announces the appointment of Electronic Business Solutions, N Billerica Ma., as the exclusive reseller of its Titan64 Blade Servers utilizing the Sun Solaris® operating system.
Powered by 32- and 64-bit capable AMD Opteron™ processors, the Titan64 line of blade servers allow users to build and utilize the superior processing power of 64-bits in a dense form factor. Angstrom is the first and only provider of quad AMD Opteron processor-based blade servers in the market today. A typical rack configuration may hold up to 52 quad blades driving 208 of the latest AMD Opteron processors.
Electronic Business Solutions has been a pioneer in implementing Solaris on AMD architecture, as well as other hardware that has been targeted for the Solaris x86 technology. In addition, the company offers full migration and support services to help users transition to this secure environment.
“EBS not only brings the technical experience to install and support the Solaris operating system on AMD64-based systems,” noted Lalit Jain, President of Angstrom, “they also have the expertise to help clients migrate their applications and processes from their current environment. It gives our customers the opportunity to take advantage of the speed and compactness of our blade servers while enjoying the technological and security advantages of Solaris.”
“The Titan64 blade servers are the perfect complement to our HLS series of AMD Opteron processor-based workstations and servers. This combination provides Solaris-based computing from the desktop to the server farm,” said Fran Oh, Chairperson of Electronic Business Solutions.
“The Angstrom and EBS partnership will provide enterprise customers, who are increasingly concerned about power consumption and cooling issues, with more power-sensitive blade servers featuring a unique Sun Solaris®_-based solution,” said Ben Williams, vice president of Enterprise and Server/Workstation business at AMD. “The fact that these blade servers are based on AMD Opteron processors substantially increases the available options for Angstrom’s enterprise customers who are seeking lower power, higher performance and a clear upgrade path in terms of both software and hardware.”
