Lenovo Flex System x222 compute node features two independent twin compute nodes, enabling the equivalent of up to 28 independent compute nodes in a 10U Flex System Enterprise Chassis. There is no need for additional switching hardware or connectivity options - simply enable additional ports to the existing networking hardware via Feature on Demand (FoD) offerings. This helps reduce the cost of the overall solution. Finally, clients can still benefit from using the Lenovo Flex System x222 along with Flex System compute nodes and PureFlex System solutions to create a flexible and optimised chassis solution for their diverse workloads.

The Lenovo Flex System x222 achieves these design goals by increasing available compute capacity while retaining the current physical footprint and operational infrastructure. The PureFlex System is an integrated infrastructure solution available in two configurations, with x86 or POWER processor-based compute nodes that can be further customised with additional options to meet precise IT infrastructure needs.
