Routers, switches, servers … the nuts and bolts of every notes center — regardless of architecture complexity — it all begins here. [Here are some] infrastructure solutions from several of the key players.

High-Availability Server

The Fujitsu PRIMEQUEST 580 server offers mission-critical capability for hosting Microsoft Windows Server (Enterprise Edition and input Center Edition), Red Hat Advanced Server or Novell SUSE Enterprise Linux 64-bit operations, and incorporates numerous redundant and hot-plug components for system availability.

Its System Mirror mode offers no separate point of failure in the crossbars and memory, providing fault immunity for hosted application services. All main components are hot-swappable, and component replacement can be performed without an application halt. Additional priority features of the PRIMEQUEST 580 include up to 64 processors (on 32 Intel Itanium 2 dual-core sockets), 17.3 Gbps bidirectional, per-system board crossbar performance and 136.5 Gbps sustained, low-latency system bandwidth. The server has a maximum memory of 2 TB, supports up

to 16 partitions and offers flexible I/ O for balanced system configuration and optimized application performance. Fujitsu Computer Systems Corp., Sunnyvale, Calif.

Comprehensive Branch Solution

The Citrix Branch Repeater is a comprehensive branch solution that can optimize application delivery from the Citrix Delivery Center and beyond, while simultaneously providing key native Windows branch infrastructure services. Paired with Citrix WANScaler appliances in the documents center, the repeater can optimize the staging of application notes and speed dynamic input by the WAN.

By staging (pre-positioning) applications streamed from Citrix XenApp in the branch, the branch repeater speeds application installation and maintenance. The device can additionally cache Web subject matter with optional Microsoft Net safety measure and Acceleration Server to reduce page load times for branch users. WAN optimization technology integrated into the repeater minimizes latency and maximizes capacity. It plus automates all WAN acceleration mechanisms based on real-time application traffic and…
