HPE Moonshot System
Massively parallel, software-defined servers that are designed specifically for the applications that they run.
Optimised hardware for specialised workloads
Get the right tool for the job. Moonshot software-defined servers are designed for specific workloads and can be customised to individual needs for maximum efficiency. Moonshot's high-density 4.3U chassis carries 45 server cartridges and two network switches – which drives vast amounts of data between nodes and off chassis – and allows you to mix and match different cartridges to fit your specific needs. Moonshot offers significantly lower power consumption, less cabling and flexible scale-out.
Swiss trading firm boosts mobile app performance
Fortune favours the fast, particularly regarding floor traders for whom every second counts. Sberbank Switzerland implemented HPE Moonshot Trader Workstation with Citrix XenDesktop to centralise compute for traders and simplify maintenance. Moonshot succeeded where other solutions failed. Check out this video to see why and how you can deliver your apps and desktops with continuous high performance while cutting watts-per-user in half and consuming up to 80% less data centre space.
