Introduction High Performance Computing, large-scale enterprise server deployments, and the latest web and cloud computing applications have special needs. The primary need may be for greater processing power, high density, or maximized operating efficiency. At HP, we have developed a system to meet these needs. It is based on industry-standard components and has a new mechanical design and infrastructure. The HP ProLiant SL6000 Scalable System provides extreme density and high performance at low acquisition costs. It is easy to service in a rack and optimized for power and cooling efficiency. Simplified server management and monitoring reduce the cost and effort needed to manage a scale-out solution made up of thousands of servers. Mechanical design for extreme scale-out computing HP developed a new mechanical design and infrastructure for the ProLiant SL6000 Scalable System to meet your needs. The HP ProLiant SL6000 Scalable System maximizes power efficiency by sharing power supplies and fans to maintain total flexibility. The system consists of: • A 2U ProLiant z6000 G6 chassis • Two self-contained 1U server trays (Figure 1) Each server tray has its own industry-standard processors, Double Data Rate-3 (DDR3) memory, I/O, and storage. The rack-mountable chassis includes a highly efficient modular power and cooling infrastructure that supports the slide-in pluggable server trays. Figure 1.

Introduction
High Performance Computing, large-scale enterprise server deployments, and the latest web and
cloud computing applications have special needs. The primary need may be for greater processing
power, high density, or maximized operating efficiency. At HP, we have developed a system to meet
these needs. It is based on industry-standard components and has a new mechanical design and
infrastructure.
The HP ProLiant SL6000 Scalable System provides extreme density and high performance at low
acquisition costs. It is easy to service in a rack and optimized for power and cooling efficiency.
Simplified server management and monitoring reduce the cost and effort needed to manage a
scale-out solution made up of thousands of servers.
Mechanical design for extreme scale-out computing
HP developed a new mechanical design and infrastructure for the ProLiant SL6000 Scalable System to
meet your needs. The HP ProLiant SL6000 Scalable System maximizes power efficiency by sharing
power supplies and fans to maintain total flexibility. The system consists of:
•
A 2U ProLiant z6000 G6 chassis
•
Two self-contained 1U server trays (Figure 1)
Each server tray has its own industry-standard processors, Double Data Rate-3 (DDR3) memory, I/O,
and storage. The rack-mountable chassis includes a highly efficient modular power and cooling
infrastructure that supports the slide-in pluggable server trays.
