Boston, Massachusetts: 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."
