Product Description
Lenovo NeXtScale System is a new HPC offering from Lenovo. This new dense offering is based on our experience with Lenovo iDataPlex® and Lenovo BladeCenter® along with a tight focus on emerging and future client requirements. The Lenovo NeXtScale n1200 enclosure and Lenovo NeXtScale nx360 M4 server are designed to optimize density and performance within typical data center infrastructure limits. The 6U NeXtScale n1200 enclosure fits in a standard 19-inch rack and up to twelve nx360 M4 servers can be installed into the enclosure. With increased computing power per watt and the Intel® Xeon® processor, you can reduce costs while maintaining speed and availability.
