and the Discovery Lab are ongoing HP investments as we develop the ProLiant Power Management Controller that monitors system power and temperature and adjusts fans as needed We developed high-efficiency common-slot power supplies to increase power efficiency without degrading server performance - HP ProLiant SE2170s | HP Project Moonshot and the Redstone Development Server Pl - Page 5
micro SD cards • Four direct-attached SATA 3 Gb/s ports per SoC Storage cartridges If your application needs local storage, the Redstone Development Server supports optional storage cartridges. A storage cartridge consists of either two SFF HDDs (Figure 4) or two SFF SSDs. Each SoC can connect to - HP ProLiant SE2170s | HP Project Moonshot and the Redstone Development Server Pl - Page 6
Figure 4: Each storage cartridge includes two SFF drives: either HDDs or SSD drives. Configuring the server trays You can optimize the server trays with a mix of compute or storage cartridges for the specific workloads you'll be running. For example, you can configure for maximum compute - HP ProLiant SE2170s | HP Project Moonshot and the Redstone Development Server Pl - Page 7
overcomes the challenge of interconnecting thousands of server nodes in a single chassis by conventional methods. The embedded mesh fabric lets you connect nodes in a variety of redundant topologies. The integrated management capability supports common systems management protocols such as IPMI - HP ProLiant SE2170s | HP Project Moonshot and the Redstone Development Server Pl - Page 8
Project Moonshot, we're driving these advantages into the server market. The simpler instruction set and aggressive low-power designs of ARM implementations give ARM cores an intrinsic energy and cost advantage compared to high-performance processors such as x86. Availability We will make limited - HP ProLiant SE2170s | HP Project Moonshot and the Redstone Development Server Pl - Page 9
to need more servers to meet the same performance. In some cases, you might choose to trade off cost and power for the space savings achieved in the Moonshot program. Application porting and re-compiling Many software applications are already available and supported on the ARM instruction set.

Because of the different system, performance, and granularity tradeoffs, we expect that our customers will want to server will be full production servers available to any customer.
