Astute Networks and NEI partnered to build a "stateless" AdvancedTCA server solution using NEI's leading AdvancedTCA servers, Intel technology, and Astute Networks’ Caspian 10 Gb iSCSI Storage Blades with remote iSCSI boot. The roles of AdvancedTCA systems are more demanding with an increased variety of applications, operating systems and server processors running in a single chassis. The ability to rapidly deploy, manage, repurpose and upgrade systems for new or changing applications is a growing challenge for NEPs and Telcos.

There are several advantages of creating a "stateless" server model using Astute Networks’ iSCSI boot to meet these challenges. Read about them in this paper.
