Open source operating systems offer high levels of security, flexibility, and performance. As a result, the majority of iXsystems' customers embrace open source hardware solutions. “Open Source Hardware Design” is the iXsystems trademark. iXsystems builds custom hardware soutions that address a company's technical and budgetary needs within their specific network architecture.
Finding the right hardware that is compatible with the software solution that will achieve the customer's goals is of critical importance. iXsystems pre-tests configurations to verify their compatibility with the desired OS in order to ensure that the customer doesn't encounter compatibility problems with the OS post-deployment. Many hardware components don't just automatically work when paired with open source software. At iXsystems, our open source professionals overcome such obstacles and engineer drivers to eliminate this worry for our clients.
iXsystems' servers and storage solutions all wield the benefits of open source, while still delivering powerful and targeted hardware. We don't believe in the “one-size-fits-all” approach.
