Physical server blades supplement processing power; virtual software blades add specialised processing.
Blade servers consist of computer processing modules with a height of 1 inch, a width of 19 inches and variable depth. Some users also refer to them as 1RU (1 rack unit) servers, as they occupy a single slot in an electrical equipment rack.
Hardware vendors such as Sun Microsystems and Hewlett-Packard and software vendors like Informix (with its DataBlades) have attempted to popularise the blade approach.
Compare the concept of a RAID device as a sort of storage blade.

So shall I slay the wretch without a blow, Spare me to celebrate his overthrow, And nurse my valor for another foe. Joel Buxter |
