Wave SME Common server solutions

Typical application requirements for a small Enterprise server system

At present, a large number of network applications have gradually infiltrated into every aspect of daily work of small and medium-sized enterprises. For a PC-side in 80 small and medium-sized enterprises, its IT applications are generally concentrated in the following parts: Web services, Internet sharing access, file sharing/print sharing, mail server, financial management, advanced Office automation services, invoicing management/ERP/CRM/SCM, domain user management, database , anti-virus system and so on.

In the above small and medium-sized enterprise applications, the general load pressure is not as large as large enterprises, it architecture is relatively simple, so you can choose a server to meet the needs of a variety of applications.

Below is a typical SME network requirements case:

A company headquartered in Beijing has two subsidiaries in Shanghai and Guangzhou, and the number of personal computers in the three locations is 70, 50 and 30, respectively. The company hopes to build the local area network in three places, and through the WAN interconnection, the request adapts the daily office the demand, provides the staff to provide the email, the browsing, the cooperation work, the customer data management and so on function.

To meet the above application requirements, you typically configure three server systems: File/Print sharing servers, Web or mail application servers, ERP or database application servers, as well as the following related hardware facilities:

Recommended for common Application Server System configuration

As can be seen from the above case, the common server system for small and medium-sized enterprises is usually centralized in file/Print Sharing server, Web or mail application server, ERP or database application server. Therefore, we recommend the configuration of the common server system as follows, readers.

File/Print Sharing server configuration scheme

In a network with a 80 PC side, configuring the server for File/Print sharing can be configured with the following system:

Processor: One 2.8GHz to strong processor. Because 64-bit applications are rapidly becoming popular, it is highly recommended to support 64-bit applications and 32-bit applications compatible with the Intel 64-bit Xeon processor.

Memory: In order to ensure the stability of the system, it is recommended to use 512MB or 1GB memory that supports ECC functionality.

Hard disk: The latest SATA hard drives have a great advantage over the traditional IDE hard disk in data storage, and the storage capacity of a single SATA hard disk can be as high as 250GB and cost-effective.

Network controller: A gigabit network controller that supports the network redundancy and load balancing functions.

Power: Server dedicated power.

Ii. Web or mail server configuration scenarios

Processor: In general, you can configure 2 64-bit Xeon processors when you have a large Web access or more than 500 mail users.

Memory: Need to configure more than 1GB ECC memory to achieve better processing tasks.

Hard drive: A SATA or CSI hard drive.

Network controller: A gigabit network controller that supports the network redundancy and load balancing functions.

Power: Server dedicated power.

Iii. ERP or database application server configuration scheme

Processor: This kind of application involves a large number of data-intensive operations, so it is recommended to use 2 units with a frequency of more than 2.8GHz of 64-bit Xeon processors.

Memory: A large number of intensive operations require the use of higher performance 2G ECC ddrii memory.

Hard disk: More than 2 SCSI hard drives, and with data security in mind, you need to configure the RAID scheme

Network controller: A gigabit network controller that supports the network redundancy and load balancing functions.

Management software: This kind of application often undertakes the company more important application, therefore the daily management maintenance cost is also relatively high, therefore proposed chooses a set to assist the network management daily Administration work the specialized server management software.

Power: Server dedicated power.

SME Server products Recommendation

Although the network application of a small and medium-sized enterprise usually needs to configure three kinds of server systems, it is possible to choose a server that can meet the needs of many applications. When choosing a server, you can focus on the following metrics:

1. Strong computational performance, to meet the company's headquarters and the rapid access between the branches.

2. Network performance is good, network interface preferably 1000M.

3. Meet 24x7 uninterrupted operation.

4. To ensure data security and effectiveness.

5. Provide professional after-sales service, timely response and solve customer problems.

At present, there are many brands of servers in the market, and a lot of low-cost DIY servers are on the way. The buyers of small and medium-sized enterprises often fall into the dilemma of "confusing flowers and becoming attractive eyes". Considering that the server is carrying the key IT application of the enterprise, the author recommends that the enterprise purchase or choose the server product that the professional server manufacturer produces. Select a dedicated server products in addition to the after-sales service and other aspects of access to adequate protection, the key is in the reliability of the server buyers can be very relieved. For example: At present, the domestic professional server manufacturers wave production of each server before the factory need to carry out at least 1000 times the switch machine test, the system will be connected to the AC electric power, power off the repeated test, and then there are strict high and low temperature, drop test. and DIY server switch machine test can only do dozens of times, as to say that the pressure of high and low temperature and so on all kinds of testing basic No.

Wave of the British letter NP370 G2 for fast-growing small and medium-sized enterprises tailored to a cost-effective work-level server.

NP370G2 five major technical highlights:

Support for dual 64-bit Intel Xeon processor, 64-bit memory extended addressing technology, large memory addressing capability, compatible with 64-bit and 32-bit applications, integrated 2-level cache up to 1~2mb;800 MHz FSB, and system performance improvement of 30%.

ECC Ddrii memory provides greater memory bandwidth and higher reliability.

Supports SATA or SCSI hard drives, providing a variety of storage scenarios.

With unique enhanced RAID1 technology to ensure that the system on the basis of multiple hard disk damage, data is not lost.

Using intelligent technology to achieve humanized design, with the unique wave Blue Dolphin Intelligent installation of navigation software and Falcon management software to help enterprises quickly reduce management costs, improve efficiency.

Wave English letter Np370g2 Memory extended addressing technology can break through the original memory access 4GB limit, for enterprise intranet and OA information development reserved a very full space. And in the common application of e-mail, web and other enterprises, NP370G2 server is also a very excellent choice. Gigabit Nic greatly improves the I/O capability of the system, making data transfer faster and more stable.
