Question

Discuss practically the server form factor(s) you would consider for AIT and justify your choice with reasons.

Answer 1

Blade Server form factor should be preferred for the AIT because the blade server forms are way more efficient in terms of space as compared in any other server forms.

• Since we need several serves for the given case and in other server forms it is difficult to maintain even a few servers , so, here also blade server forms is at a great lead since it is capable of managing several file servers together .And this enables the this forms to communicate better between the different nodes at low cost and high efficiency.

• Blade server forms are more faster , or in other words we can say that , they are more efficient and smooth in terms of their working speed since they can adjust more that five servers at a single phase of operation.The single phase of operation of the blade server form requires only two-third power consumption as compared to other server forms.

• Although rack-mount server forms also reduces the space uses but is far behind the Blade server forms since the blade server form factor is capable of handling more than one blades on a single power supply.

• The servers in the blade server form runs on the single power supply hence it reduces the problem of the spaceing as well as the efficiency of utilisation of the available resource or the fuel.The blade server form need less fuel consumptions since the required servers get activated only before the processing and passing of the data unlike rack mount server forms.

• The servers in this server form are more handy and controllable as compared to the rack mount server form since , in this we can control all our severs from one control node using the nodal components.Since we are able to control it from one single place hence there no need to pass the synchronization data to the other controllers and hence it enhances the speed of the working between the servers.

• The servers in this system or form is more economically feasible , since it requires less consumption in the cable materials and hence reduces a lot of budget problem, and eventually make the server system more economical and profitable.

So, from above practical arguments it is clear that the blade server forms suits best in the asked scenario.
