Description

An Azure Stack HCI solution is a hardware and software stack used to extend the Azure cloud to physical locations. The standard hardware configuration is optimized for scale and power. At Build 2022, we will announce the new single-node offering that provides additional options for business scenarios with different requirements. 

The new single-node Azure Stack HCI fulfills growing hybrid infrastructure needs in remote locations while maintaining the innovation of native integration with Azure Arc. Specifically, this new configuration offers flexibility to deploy the stack in smaller spaces and with less processing needs, optimizing resources while still delivering quality and consistency. 

Additional benefits of Azure Stack HCI single-node include:

  • Smaller Azure Stack HCI solutions for environments with physical space constraints or that don’t require built-in resiliency, like retail stores and branch offices.
  • A smaller footprint reduces hardware and operational costs. 
  • Solutions can be built to scale, ranging from single-node up to 16 nodes if needed.

Azure Stack HCI single-node offerings will be available from Acuutech, DataON, Dell Technologies, Lenovo, NEC, and Thomas-Krenn.
