T-Platforms V-Class

The company defines this product line as "V-Class Family".

The general

Building block systems of V-Class are ideal for creation of computing clusters of different scale and the "cloud" systems of the top level. The architecture of V-Class is positioned as more functional platform having superiority over twin-servers.

The absence in the chassis of modular switches allows customers to implement practically any topology of interconnect, to avoid "resubscription" of ports, to reduce costs for the built-in switches and the end-to-end modules pass-through and to use active network equipment of certain brands.

The built-in system of centralized operation unavailable on twin-servers provides local and remote control of the chassis and computing modules.

The average computing density and energy efficient design of family allow to carry out to unroll clusters based on V-Class without upgrade of engineering infrastructure of server premises and DPC. The modular architecture, characteristics optimized under tasks of HPC and long lifecycle of family allow to protect investments of customers and to reduce total cost of ownership a computing cluster and a server farm.
