Lenovo announces a global partnership with Scale Computing-- one bringing about an edge infrastructure solution for global retailers, distributed enterprises and SMBs.
Dubbed the Scale Computing HC3 Edge Platform on Lenovo Servers, the solution consists of Lenovo server hardware and the Scale HC3 Edge platform. It brings together storage, servers and virtualisation in a comprehensive system with automated management. The system handles on-premises workloads, hybrid cloud environments and IoT deployments, and is aimed at distributed locations with limited onsite IT support, such as retail stores and bank branches.
“In today’s global economy, businesses and governments are instrumenting the edge with ever greater intelligence, so the desire for reliable, scalable and agile edge infrastructure solutions continues to grow,” Lenovo says. “Together with Scale Computing, Lenovo is addressing this market by providing edge infrastructure that has the capacity to run various IT and OT workloads, is space conscious and can be managed at each individual location by generalists. This reduces the time and budget spent managing technology and allows companies to focus more on growing their business and serving their customers.”
Based on the self-healing HC3 software platform, HC3 Edge is a turnkey platform for running multiple virtualised applications in a remote setting. It features centralised management and replication to either a centralised cluster or a cloud, among other capabilities.
The Scale Computing HC3 Edge Platform on Lenovo Servers is available now.
