ITP4110 Lab 4 Study on High-end Server for Data Centre




Objective

In this tutorial, you will require to find and analyze information on different kinds of high-end servers which adopted in data centre.

Information Gathering

1.        Search information on Internet which related to:
-           Data centre grade servers of different brands (e.g. HP, IBM, Dell)
-           Common features which will consider when studying these kind of servers (e.g. performance, reliability, availability, scalability, manageability, use of resources, form factor, consolidation opportunities, green solution)
-           Corresponding technical specification of the identified servers
-           Sample case studies (e.g. successful cases) on adopting these servers/solutions
-           User comments

Analysis

1.         Study the state-of-the-art technologies the servers adopted for the features.
2.         Analyze on the cases and user comments.
3.         Based on the step 1 and 2, identified features and specification, compile a comparison on the devices. Comparison should be done on the same class of product. You may show the ranking of the servers in each feature based on your judgment.

Reporting

1.         Prepare a report to present your findings. The report should be
-           well and professional formatted
-           enriched with graphics and photos
-           rich content
-           included all the corresponding references
2.         A suggested report structure should look like (but not limited to)
-           Introduction (include objective of this report)
-           Terminology (define the special and technology terms which will be appeared later in the report, e.g. Blade)
-           Brief Description of the High-end Servers (highlight the technologies, features, sample usage and user comments of the devices in your study)
-           Comparison (you are suggested to present the comparison of the identified servers in Table format)
-           Conclusion
-           References
3.         Hand-in the softcopy of your well-formatted report.
