HP (Palo Alto, CA) announced a container-based data center offering that enables customers around the globe to rapidly expand data center capacity in support of IT and business growth. The HP Performance Optimized Data Center (HP POD) offers Web 2.0, cloud computing, high-performance computing (HPC), and enterprise customers multiple choices as well as new levels of flexibility in deploying IT resources.

Designed specifically to support a wide range of industry-standard technology, the HP POD helps companies keep pace with the demands of IT growth in the data center, as well as rising energy costs. It can support a variety of HP and third-party servers, storage and networking equipment, and provide customers with more density by supporting more than 3,500 compute nodes, or 12,000 large-form-factor (LFF) hard drives, in a 40-foot shipping container.
