Each Paladin building block server contains a software stack
specifically optimized for its related hardware. In addition to
supporting computing, networking and storage servers, the building
blocks are also configured to support purpose-built appliances, such as
the recently announced Paladin digital signage media player. They can be
further customized to support a wide variety of application requirements
including information technology (IT) infrastructure, digital signage,
security and machine-to-machine (M2M) products.
“The Paladin portfolio of servers offers our customers a family of
proven, tested, and integrated hardware and software to deliver their
overall solution,” said Chuck Kostalnick, senior vice president of Avnet
Embedded. “The Paladin family of servers fills gaps in previously
underserved markets and allows us to leverage the entire Avnet Embedded
supplier portfolio to tailor perfect-fit solutions for our customers.”
The Paladin portfolio is a key part of Rorke Global Solutions’ custom
solutions for OEMs, independent software vendors (ISVs), and channel
partners. Based on Rorke Global Solutions’ broad experience, Paladin
servers have already been configured to support multiple vertical market
segments including retail, medical, communications, networking, cloud
hosting and industrial.
Many of the server solutions will be Open Compute Project (OCP)
compliant and available for evaluation in one of the OCP labs hosted by
Rorke Global Solutions.
