Fujitsu's PRIMEQUEST systems provide highly available, fault-tolerant computing for critical workloads through features like physical partitioning (PPAR) and dynamic reconfiguration. PPAR allows multiple logical partitions to run independently on a single system. Flexible I/O and reserved system boards enable flexible partitioning configurations. This allows multiple workloads to run in a single cabinet while isolating failures to prevent downtime. PRIMEQUEST systems combine Intel Xeon processors with Fujitsu's innovative system architecture to deliver mainframe-class reliability on an x86 platform.

- 9. Multi-Tenancy with FlexFrame Pools Pools are separated with VLAN technology Each pool has a dedicated storage, server and client VLAN Pools can be viewed as e.g. a customer or department which do not share servers as common resource. The control center supervises multiple pools. This gives control over multiple customers or departments without the need of multiple control nodes. Customer benefits: ‒ more customers on one FlexFrame and still single point of control and necessary security ‒ ideal for SAP hosting and service partners ‒ pools can also be used for cloning of SAP services without SAP post-processing ‒ or to separate critical SAP services e.g. HR OS OS OS OS OS OS OS OS
