HP Wants Midmarket to Get Shorty

Specifically, HP on Sept. 12 unveiled a smaller, more convenient blade enclosure to its line of c-Class blade servers that it expects will give the vendor a blade play for midmarket buyers who previously considered blades a tool of large enterprises with massive data centers and big budgets.

The new product, dubbed the BladeSystem c3000 and nicknamed “Shorty” for its 10.5-inch height, is designed to run cheap and small. It plugs into a standard 110- or 220-volt wall socket and the blade enclosure, which can hold up to eight blades in a smaller frame with less cabling, fits tighter quarters—important when space is a major obstacle to growth. The c3000 is accompanied by available services called HP Solution Blocks that allow users to custom order a range of third-party ISV applications or order training and updates from HP.

HP also released a new storage blade—the SB600c—compatible with c3000 and c7000 enclosures.

With the c3000 rolling out immediately, HP believes that it has succeeded in designing a set of hardware and services for midmarket and midsize business, some 500,000 companies worldwide with between 100 and 1,000 employees it considers an untapped market for enterprise class systems, said Ann Livermore, executive vice president of HP’s Technology Solutions Group, in an interview with eWEEK.
