InfoWorld: Linux hardware and clustering company Penguin Computing is releasing two new blade servers in its BladeRunner family, the 4130 and the 4140, based on 64-bit chips from Intel and Advanced Micro Devices, respectively. Penguin will be showing off the blades at the LinuxWorld show taking place in San Francisco from Monday to Thursday.
"In the data center environment, space, power consumption and thermal considerations in relation to heat emission are becoming increasingly important," said Bill Cook, Penguin's senior vice president of services and sales. He said the new blades are best suited for use in data center consolidation and departmental clustering. Offering 64-bit blades is part of Penguin's ongoing strategy to provide Linux hardware "across the board," from the midlevel to high-end computing, he said.
