Themis Computer Announces New Dual-Core AMD and Intel-Based Rugged Enterprise Servers

Posted on: Tuesday, 3 April 2007, 09:00 CDT

Themis Computer has announced four new, high performance 2RU and 3RU Dual-Core AMD(TM) Opteron(R) and Dual-Core Intel(R) Xeon(R)-based servers for mission-critical applications. Themis' new 2RU and 3RU Rugged Enterprise Servers (RES) combine the latest AMD and Intel 64-bit processors, with the design features of the Themis Rugged Enterprise Server family. Designed to keep operating in environments where other systems fail, Themis' new servers blend the latest processor technologies with Themis' proprietary thermal and mechanical design to deliver outstanding performance and reliability. To ensure reliable operation in harsh environments, Themis' rugged new servers are designed to withstand shock loads to 25G. All of Themis' new servers support the Linux(R), Sun(R) Solaris(TM), and Windows(R) Operating Systems to run a wide variety of user applications.

"We design and build rugged computing solutions that provide high quality, superior scalability and reliability, in hostile operating environments," said William Kehret, president of Themis Computer. "These new server variants allow our customers to provide state of the art solutions for their mission critical applications."

Themis' New AMD Dual-Core Opteron-Based Servers

The new RES-22DCO(TM) and the RES-32DCO(TM) servers may be configured with one or two dual-core Opteron Series 2000 processors, AMD's exclusive Direct Connect Architecture, Hyper Transport technology, Simultaneous 32- and 64-bit computing, and AMD PowerNow technology(TM). Themis' RES-22DCO and RES-32DCO servers offer outstanding system compute and I/O performance, dependability, and value. The new nVidia MCP55-Pro and NEC 720400 chipset represents the latest in server architecture, providing the highest possible performance and scalability via the system's Hyper Transport Technology. The MCP55-Pro is the central hub for all data that passes through the core system elements and delivers high bandwidth across a 1000MHz Hyper Transport bus.
