Servers Overview

Servers are the powerful computers that power our digital world,
providing the core infrastructure for modern computing. From handling
web traffic to processing data, servers are the backbone of technology.
Chassis Server

Compact Design Centralized Management Efficient Cooling


Chassis servers feature a compact, The chassis provides a single point of Chassis servers utilize shared cooling
space-saving enclosure that houses control for managing and maintaining resources, such as high-performance
multiple server modules or blades, the individual server components, fans and airflow management, to
optimizing data center floor space. simplifying IT operations. optimize energy efficiency and reduce
operational costs.
Blade Server
A blade server is a compact, modular server that fits into a
chassis. Blades save space and power by sharing common
infrastructure like cooling, power, and networking. This
makes them ideal for high-density computing in data
centers or edge environments.

Blade servers are highly scalable, allowing businesses to add


or remove computing power as needed. They offer improved
efficiency and reduced maintenance costs compared to
traditional rack-mounted servers.
Hypervisor
A hypervisor is a software layer that allows multiple operating systems to
run concurrently on a single hardware platform. It acts as a virtual
machine monitor, providing a secure and efficient way to manage and
allocate system resources.

The hypervisor abstracts the underlying hardware, enabling the creation


of virtual machines that can run different guest operating systems. This
allows for better resource utilization, flexibility, and isolation between
workloads.
Remote Connection
Remote connection allows users to access servers and other
IT resources from anywhere with an internet connection. This
provides flexibility and productivity for employees working
remotely or on the go.

Popular remote access tools like RDP, VNC, and SSH enable
secure, real-time control of servers and desktops. Users can
troubleshoot issues, manage systems, and collaborate with
team members from any location.
