When businesses and enterprises require servers, they need to be reliable, efficient, and secure to keep up with the needs of their business. Rack servers are currently the most common solution for businesses, as they are cost-effective and provide many benefits businesses need to run effectively and efficiently. The following are just some of the top benefits of Quickserv rack servers.
What is a Rack Server?
If you’re interested in server technology, chances are you already know what a rack server is. A rack server—also known as an equipment enclosure or chassis—is a box that holds one or more servers. Rack servers provide a space-saving, cost-effective way to store and cool IT equipment.
1) Low-Cost Solution for Big Storage Needs
If you need a solution for extensive storage needs or an unreliable network, then rack servers are suitable for you. Being able to control your data storage and networking options on one unit makes it easy to get up and run while offering redundancy and some security benefits (as opposed to storing your information with a third party).
2) Easy Scalability
Unlike blade servers, which require entirely new infrastructure when scaling your operations, you can quickly scale rack servers by adding additional server racks. This makes them very cost-effective if you are growing your business rapidly. Plus, they’re easy to reconfigure as you grow your operation. If one application isn’t performing as well as it should, instead of upgrading all your hardware with blade servers and disrupting your entire system, move some applications to their rack server.
3) Easier maintenance compared to tower servers
Rack servers have an advantage over tower servers in their ease of maintenance. The server can be taken apart quickly and is much more compact than a tower server. This makes it easy to access components for maintenance. In addition, it’s safer to handle as there are no hot components to burn you like with a tower server. And if you have multiple units, you can stack them all on top without worrying about interfering with each other’s airflow.
