The first to use native VMware technology, the bullion server was designed by Bull specifically for the virtualisation of critical enterprise applications. With bullion you can scale beyond industry 4 or 8-way Intel server limits to 12 or 16-way configurations. bullion is more than twice as powerful as the fastest IBM System x3850 servers, and delivers 47% more power then the fastest of the HP DL980 servers. This means you can easily adapt your infrastructure to meet the ever-changing demands of applications operating in Cloud mode. The key characteristics of this platform enable you to bring together applications and databases within a Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) to build a Private Cloud that will transform your data centre operation.
