Rackable Systems Supports Rapidly Expanding Zoho Infrastructur
FREMONT, Calif., August 27, 2008 ? Rackable Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: RACK),
a leading provider of servers and storage for large-scale data centers, today
announced that Zoho, a division of AdvetNet Inc., has deployed Rackable Systems?
patented half-depth servers to host their extensive suite of online software,
including a word processor, spreadsheets, wikis, CRM and project management
applications.
Zoho?s robust portfolio of Web-native applications is an attractive option for
consumers and small businesses looking for inexpensive, user-friendly business
tools. As the company?s customer base continued to grow, AdventNet, the
enterprise management software provided behind Zoho, looked to Rackable Systems
to help build out their back end infrastructure. And while Zoho provides the IT
infrastructure for tens of thousands of businesses, Rackable Systems provides
physical infrastructure for Zoho.
?When our customer base surged past one million, it became increasingly
important to find a server vendor that was able to scale with us,? said Neil
Butani, vice president of Operations. ?Rackable Systems? servers are extremely
efficient and their unique back-to-back architecture allowed us to increase our
density within our existing data center footprint.?
By hosting their productivity, collaboration and business applications on
Rackable Systems? Eco-Logical™ servers, AdventNet has met and exceeded Zoho?s
requirement for an efficient and scalable solution. The deployment, made up of
multiple 44U cabinets with DC-Powered servers running low-wattage Intel® Quad
Core processors, is spread across multiple physical locations. The company
estimates that this configuration has saved them about 20 to 25 percent in power
and cooling costs over the past 18 months. Rackable Systems architected the
solution with AC to DC rectifiers inside the cabinets allowing Zoho an
unsurpassed level of reliability and redundancy.
?Our built-to-order server designs are ideal for SaaS leaders like Zoho who
require component flexibility, reliability and best-in-class density,? said Tony
Carrozza, senior vice president of worldwide sales and marketing at Rackable
Systems. ?With our Eco-Logical server solutions, Zoho will realize increasing
energy and cost savings as they continue to scale within their existing data
center environment.?
