According to the article, HP's Performance Optimized Data Center, or POD will consist of 22 taller-than-average 50U racks that can support up to 3,500 compute nodes, or 12,000 large form-factor hard drives. The servers will be accessible from the front of the rack and cooled with HP modular cooling system components using chilled water HP will also offer a 20-foot container option for smaller environments.
Not all reaction to them has been rosy with Chuck Goolsbee of Digital Forest saying that they shouldn't be considered a long-term solution. Will be interesting to see how the market reacts to them.
