Accelerate your business

With the explosion of data storage needs, Hyperconverged Infrastructure (HCI) has seen tremendous growth. Microsoft provides Storage Spaces Direct (S2D), a feature of Windows Server Datacenter Edition, to provide both HCI capabilities through Azure Stack HCI and Windows Server Software Defined (WSSD) solutions. Lenovo ThinkAgile MX Certified Nodes are HCI building blocks built with certified hardware, which include software and life cycle management via ThinkAgile advantage support, and allow businesses to deploy solutions quickly and easily.

Faster time to value

In traditional IT, a solution is designed, tested, implemented, and maintained, requiring significant time and energy. Microsoft created S2D to solve this IT challenge with its Azure Stack HCI certified solutions.
Lenovo has designed, tested, and validated ThinkAgile MX Series to provide the Azure Stack HCI solutions you need, with the confidence required, to exceed the stringent requirements of today's IT. The result is that you can quickly deploy a robust, high-performance HCI solution and rapidly solve your IT challenges.

Simplicity and flexibility

Lenovo XClarity extension integrates with Windows Admin Center from Microsoft, providing a unified single pane-of-glass simple experience across infrastructure, virtual machines, software, and hardware. ThinkAgile MX Nodes offer a wide range of processor, memory, and storage options to provide the maximum flexibility for customizing your infrastructure.
