Inspur InCloudRack Supports Intel(R) Rack Scale Design, Ready for Open Source Development

FREMONT, Calif., July 28, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, Intel announced the availability of its Rack Scale Design (also known as Intel® RSD, and formerly known as the Intel® Rack Scale Architecture). The Intel Rack Scale Design is the first framework to use and to be based upon the Redfish™ industry standard from DMTF for modern and secure management of scalable platform hardware in the modern datacenter. Additionally, the framework enables dynamic management of compute, memory, PCIe and storage resources and the pooling of those resources for more efficient utilization of data center assets. Leveraging Intel® RSD technology, Inspur InCloudRack offers an innovative and agile rack-level solution, which allows modern data centers and cloud environments fast deployment time. The solution also reduces time to market, performs with exceptional serviceability, manageability, and reliability, and its unmatched energy efficiency also reduces cost - leading to lower OPEX, and higher ROI. 

Powerful Solutions Enhanced by Strategic Partnership

The Intel® Rack Scale Design accelerates service delivery through a software-composable system and rapid provisioning of applications. Inspur InCloudRack's modular design, complete with Intel® RSD, combines centralized power, cooling, and management into a rack-level converged infrastructure -- revolutionizing how modern data centers and cloud environment can be built. Inspur has been a key partner for Intel through the years, and one of the first to integrate Intel® RSD in its cutting edge rack-level hardware solution. More recently, Inspur has invested significant resources to integrate an orchestation layer along with the latest Intel® RSD components PODM, PSME, RMM on top of the InCloudRack hardware platform, delivering an end-to-end Software Defined Data Center solution, which conference attendees can preview at the upcoming Intel Developer Forum (IDF), August 16-18 in San Francisco, California.

July 28, 2016 Availability

The official announcement of the availability of the Intel® Rack Scale Design released by Intel is July 28, 2016. The Intel® Rack Scale Design code is also available as open source and the code is ready to productize and incorporate into orchestration solutions. Download the code here: https://github.com/01org/intelRSD to begin exploring how to innovate with Intel® RSD and Inspur InCloudRack. Visit Inspur's booth (#400) at IDF 2016 to see how InCloudRack featuring Intel® Rack Scale Design can transform your datacenter solutions.
