Compute Blades
Blade servers have been widely adopted in
data centers because they cost less to deploy
and less to operate—due to savings in power
and cooling—than rack-optimized servers.
Blade servers are also more easily scaled
than fixed-capacity monolithic servers to meet
workload growth and are easier to service
with their field-replaceable blades.
Blades process and move a large amount of
data. Historically, designers have incorporated
more processors and more processor types.
Systems could include any number of CPUs,
DSPs, microcontrollers, network processors
and application-specific processors.
Embedding switches into blade servers
provides further infrastructure integration,
simplified management, greater scalability,
improved power and cooling efficiency and
increased application availability.
As enterprises begin to migrate to next-
generation data centers, blade server switches
are evolving to meet the new demands with
advanced functions such as application-aware
networking, low latency line-rate switching
at Gigabit (Gb) speeds, advanced QoS,
support for virtualization and advanced
security features.
QorIQ processors can help designers reap the
benefit of using highly integrated processors
with the I/O needed for application/content-
aware processing. Freescale partner
companies such as 6WIND provide an open
framework to ease the transition from a
single core to many cores. Multicore-aware
network middleware from 6WIND can boost
performance, placing configuration and
management at the heart of the software. This
solves real business issues of time and cost
savings associated with software integration,
interface, configuration and network
management of multicore machines.
The P2020 processor can manage control
and dataplane functions in blade systems.
This reduces the cost of integrating additional
bridge chips to perform these functions.
