IBM promises less server mess | |

IBM on Friday unveiled new technology that aims to simplify how servers are installed by cutting through the mess of connecting cables. The new technology, called Advanced Connectivity Technology (ACT), will streamline the deployment of large numbers of IBM's 3.5-inch eServers. Rack-mounted servers, which resemble a pizza box in size and thickness, offer the same computing power as a stand-alone server. These more compact machines allow companies to locate a large amount of computing power in a central location, which in turn lowers the cost of operating the machines, which are used to store data or conduct transactions over computer networks. "We've seen a huge shift in our customers and in the marketplace from tower servers to rack-dense servers," said Jeff Benck, director of marketing for xSeries servers. "In 2003, we'll see more rack servers sold than towers." | ||
