Build Day Live! at Supermicro

Two things really caught my eye:  The modular design of the enterprise-ready Ultra series, and networking. Yes, I found out Supermicro does networking.

Having just worked with a customer on configuring the BOM (Build Of Materials) for just such a 2U/4 node system last week for my day job, this nice surprise event couldn\’t be more timely.

Build Day Live! Supermicro:BigTwin

I am a big fan of the 4 Node, 2U form factor. It provides more flexibility than a blade solution, often being more straightforward to manage than blade platforms, but is more space efficient than standard rack mount servers.
