Server & Storage Infrastructure
Lenovo
Lenovo builds enterprise data centre infrastructure: ThinkSystem rack servers and storage, ThinkAgile hyperconverged infrastructure, and ThinkEdge systems for remote and branch sites. Scout Outsource specifies, supplies, configures and supports it, including Premier Support contracts and TruScale consumption.
- ThinkSystem
- Hyperconverged
- Edge
Lenovo is usually the stronger answer where the estate is consolidating rather than expanding. ThinkAgile collapses compute, storage and the hypervisor into one supported stack, which removes a layer of integration work and a layer of blame when something misbehaves. ThinkEdge covers the sites that are too small for a comms room but still need to run something.
What Lenovo does
- ThinkSystem servers and storage
- Rack servers and storage arrays configured against the workload, with the support contract agreed before anything ships.
- ThinkAgile hyperconverged
- Compute, storage and hypervisor as one supported stack, which is the shortest route to consolidating a sprawling estate.
- ThinkEdge
- Ruggedised systems for branch and remote sites that need to run workloads without a comms room to put them in.
- TruScale consumption
- Infrastructure on a subscription rather than a purchase, for estates that would rather not carry the capital cost or the refresh cliff.
- Premier Support and lifecycle
- Support contracts, warranty tracking, asset management and planned refresh rather than reactive replacement.
Who Lenovo is for
Organisations consolidating onto hyperconverged infrastructure, businesses with branch or edge sites to support, and anyone weighing outright purchase against a consumption model.
Common questions
Should we choose Lenovo or Dell?
It depends on the workload, your existing estate and the support model you need. We carry both, so we specify against your requirement rather than against a single vendor line. We will tell you when they are genuinely equivalent and price should decide.
What is ThinkAgile for?
Consolidation. It packages compute, storage and the hypervisor as one supported stack, so instead of integrating three layers from three vendors and refereeing between them when something breaks, there is one build and one support contract.
Do you supply laptops, desktops or handsets?
No. The hardware we supply is data centre infrastructure: servers, storage, SAN and networking. End-user devices are not something we sell, though our IT helpdesk supports them and our endpoint security covers them whoever you bought them from.
