The Appro 1124H based on the AMD Opteron processor is a unique solution that groups together two compact motherboards in one chassis providing a very high density 1U server, with a total of 4 processors per server. Each motherboard has room for two dual, quad, or six-core processors with support for 64GB of system memory per board. Each board also has a PCIe x16 expansion slot and up to two hot-swappable SATA HDDs. The Appro 1124H is a perfect performance-optimized server foundation to build up a large cluster within a limited datacenter floor space. Now HPC users can have more processing performance scalability with a massively multi-threaded server architecture at a great entry-level cost.

The Appro 1124H brings advancements in power and cooling, memory, I/O and security optimizing the platform for the demands of multi-core processing. It provides outstanding memory bandwidth while boosting system responsiveness for data intensive applications.

In addition, Appro offers complete turnkey cluster solution with open source cluster management options for our 1U/2U cluster projects. Appro works with open source and commercially supported software such as ROCKS+ and MOAB from ClusterCorp to deploy a full service open source, customized and self-maintained cluster environment.

Ideal Environment

The Appro 1124H server is well suited for high performance computing users who need to maximize processor density and memory bandwidth in an energy-efficient platform without sacrificing space and features. This server is perfect for I/O and transactional processing type of applications in the Oil and Gas, Financial, Government/Defense, and many other markets.
