Scalable rack server for essential business apps
FUJITSU Server PRIMERGY will give you exactly what
you need to power any workload and changing
business requirements. As business processes
expand so does the need for applications. Each
has its own resource footprint, so you need a way
to optimize your computing to better serve your
users. PRIMERGY systems will help you match your
computing capabilities to your business priorities
with our complete portfolio of expandable
PRIMERGY tower servers for remote and branch
hyper-converged multi-node servers. They convince
by business proven quality with a wide range of
cost and complexity, provide more agility in daily
operations, and integrate seamlessly to let help
you concentrate on core business functions.
FUJITSU Server PRIMERGY RX rack systems are
versatile rack-optimized servers providing best-
thus set the “standard” in each data center.
PRIMERGY RX servers deliver more than 20 years of
development and production know-how resulting
in extremely low failure rates which are much better
than the market average, and lead to continuous
operations and outstanding hardware availability.
