Blade servers are designed for high-density data storage, while reducing space requirements and lowering storage costs.
Blade servers contain processing hardware, but must be housed in a blade enclosure, which can hold multiple blade servers and provides services such as power, cooling, networking, various interconnects and management. Together, they form the blade system. Blade servers are usually hot-swappable, meaning repairs can take place while the system is running, reducing the incidence of system interruptions or failures.
