Proven Server Platform
Clinical Approach to Server Engineering
- Take appropriate Zubr Proven Server Platform base server.
- Add components that have been proven to work well with specific ZubrPSP server.
- Burn-in configuration.
- Deliver the server.
"Only an idiot makes the same mistake twice. We are not idiots. That's why we don't make the same mistakes twice". - Zubrcom CTO
Built on our extensive experience, we have created the Zubr Proven Server Platform to avoid encountering known problems when assembling complex servers required for 24x7 operations. We know what components work well in what configurations. We know what components become unstable under the load even though their manufacturers claim they work fine. We know what configurations are unlikely to work and what configurations are likely to be rock solid. The results speak for themselves:

- ZubrPSP is currently based on ASUS, SuperMicro and IBM servers.
- RAID requires a minimum of two hard drives.
- Hardware RAID requires special RAID controller.
- All servers with multiple network interface cards can be configured for Zubr TotalPathFailover.
