Highlights

  • Improve service with unparalleled RAS features and innovative management
  • Reduce cost through increased performance, utilization and efficiency
  • Manage growth and reduce risk on a BladeCenter platform with proven stability


Designed for versatility

The IBM® BladeCenter® HS22 offers flexible options to support a broad range of workloads, including virtualization and enterprise applications. Along with intuitive UEFI-based tools, the HS22 can be customized and deployed quickly while best-in-class reliability features help keep you up and running. Mix and match the HS22 with the industry's most diverse set of chassis and blades and that go beyond x86.

Built for performance

The HS22 provides outstanding performance with support for the latest Intel® Xeon® processors, high-speed I/O, and support for high memory capacity and fast memory throughput. The HS22 can run applications up to twice as fast compared to previous generation blades. In fact, you can run many applications faster than even competitor four-socket blades.
