HP Proliant Blade Line (BL) servers are compact and powerful servers designed for performance, management, density, and total cost of ownership (TCO) savings requirements.

HP BladeSystem is a modular infrastructure comprising of blade servers and storage options installed into a blade enclosure.  A blade enclosure includes server blades and room for storage, in addition to many shared components—power, cooling and ventilation, networking and other interconnects—all controlled by an integrated management system.  With the essential elements built in – compute, network, storage, management, and power and cooling – BladeSystem delivers reliable, cost-effective services to your business.
