The new HP BladeSystem c-Class portfolio sets a new industry agenda to "blade everything" by pre-integrating networking,
power, cooling and management into a consolidated data center architecture. Now, small and mid-sized businesses as well as
enterprise customers can fill their architecture with modular ProLiant, Integrity, StorageWorks and client blades and then
add applications and third-party products to build complete business solutions.

The groundbreaking HP BladeSystem c-Class architecture is the first blade environment that enables users to wire computing
resources once and change on the fly — dynamically adjusting power and cooling to meet energy budgets and increase
administrative productivity by up to 10-fold. Through this new architecture, over a three-year period an average
enterprise data center can realize:
- System acquisition cost savings up to 35 percent
- Data center facilities cost savings up to 59 percent
- IT administration savings up to 64 percent
