IBM� has been designing and implementing chipsets under the X-Architecture� name since 2001. eX4 technology represents the fourth generation of products based on the same design principle IBM began with in 1997: to offer systems that are expandable, offer �big iron� reliability, availability, and serviceability (RAS) features, with extremely competitive price/performance on an Intel� Xeon� MP processor-based system.

The eX4 technology is primarily designed around three major workloads. These workloads are database servers, server consolidation using virtualization services, and Enterprise Resource Planning (application and database) servers. If you are adopting industry-standard Xeon EM64T servers for running business critical applications, the systems that run these applications need the type of technology designed into IBM�s eX4 technology systems. The eX4 chipset represents a $100M+ investment in designing a flagship offering that can harness the power of 4-socket-and-up 64-bit x86 (x64) Xeon MP processors. The eX4 design includes two 4U 4-socket rack-optimized chassis (x3850 M2 and x3950 M2) with the ability to scale up to 16 sockets and up to 64 cores. In fact, you can start with a single-node x3850 M2 chassis, and by adding a ScaleXpander Option Kit, you can turn it into an x3950 M2, ready to expand into a multi-node configuration providing more flexibility in deploying your scalable solution than ever before.

IBM X-Architecture pioneered XpandOnDemand� (�pay as you grow�) scalability, which allows chassis to be simply cabled together to form larger scale-up systems. This unique capability allows IBM to sell a large SMP (symmetric multiprocessing) system at entry price points. Other Intel OEMs can�t match this capability. If they offer a 16-socket product at all, they require you to start out with a 16-socket chassis, whether you�ll ever grow into it or not. With XpandOnDemand, you can start small, with a 4- or 8-socket configuration, and later expand as your needs change, without requiring you to buy more than you need up-front or throw away parts later as you expand.
