Cloud Computing Hardware providers. Hardware designed or architecture d in such a way that it fits into the idea of Cloud Computing . General Hardware from the major vendors like IBM, HP, CISCO, DELL, AMD, INTEL etc.. will all fit naturally into the idea of cloud computing. Adding all these to the list would make the list to extensive. We are seeking Hardware vendors that have designed or architecture d hardware that fits into the external or internal cloud. For instance a peace of hardware (like a switch) that in combination with software reacts to and event or request and bursts an application into a specific cloud.

Cirtas Bluejet Cloudstorage Data growth and long-term retention have been managed the same way for decades - by adding more storage arrays and tape libraries. It's time for something better. Cirtas Bluejet is the world's first cloud-enabled storage system. With Bluejet, data is seamlessly and transparently archived to the cloud, providing relief from relentless data growth and out of control storage costs. A single Bluejet Cloud Storage Controller taps unlimited, inexpensive data repositories with the cloud providers of your choice, letting you manage massive data growth with a simple, small, power-efficient appliance. Bluejet will change how you think about storage.
6 Fusion Enterprise INode 6fusion developed technology that takes control of the computing stack and creates a single utility that enables cloud service providers to meet the needs of the IT Service Provider channel.
Within the "infrastructure" layers of the stack, we work explicitly with data center owners, hardware manufacturers and network operators to a co-launch compute utilities 6fusion calls Infrastructure Nodes, or 'iNodes'.
6fusion iNodes can be used to run pretty much any x86 compatible application, which brings us to the "application" layers of the computing stack.
6fusion makes iNode computing power available exclusively through IT Service Providers, Independent Software Vendors and Managed Service Providers. They use iNodes to build and launch 'cloud' based services to their user communities and customers world wide.
6fusion bridges the gap between supply and demand of utility computing resources with our software technology called UC6. UC6 is a single console that handles all of the metering and billing of the "infrastructure" and deployment and control of customer "applications":
Cisco CRS-3 Get ready for the future where video content, mobile traffic, and cloud data centers will create tremendous network growth. The CRS-3 delivers scale, services, and savings on one integrated platform.
SeaMicro Volume servers consume more than 1% of the total electricity used in the United States—More than $3 Billion dollars each year. Over the last six years, the power consumed by volume servers more than doubled. For companies in the data center, power consumption is the largest Operating Expense for often accounting for more than 30% of Op EX. In fact, research has shown that over a volume server’s lifetime the cost of power exceeds its purchase price.
ICEweb Cloudstorage The IceWEB Storage System is an ideal solution for cloud service providers and hoisters looking for a cloud appliance platform. A combined SAN, NAS, and DAS solution in one platform, the IceWEB Storage System offers cloud providers several important features:
•The ability to scale to meet customer demand using affordable disk shelves rather than expensive controllers
•All-inclusive storage management capabilities that provide the feature-rich storage system needed to ensure uptime and data protection
•The ability to tier data on the appropriate drive type to maximize TCO and efficiency
Storsimple Armada Storage Appliance The Armada Storage Appliance is a next-generation storage controller with an integrated high-speed storage tier including SSDs, data deduplication, and cloud storage connectivity to both public and private cloud storage. Weighted Storage Layout automatically and transparently tiers data according to the data's working set, whether it is volume data from a database, transaction logs, generic file storage, or archives.
Juniper Networks Cloud-ready Data Center Infrastructure Solutions Juniper Networks offers a dramatically streamlined network architecture for a cloud data center network. The results are massive scale, improved efficiencies, and lower operational, capital, and environmental costs.
Tilera Cloud is becoming a dominant consumer of servers, but current computing technology is not satisfying cloud's exacting need for higher performance per watt, performance per cubic foot, and performance per dollar expended. Processors used in most servers today consume too much power. Further, their roadmaps do not scale performance at the rate required by cloud. While those legacy processors solved computing problems encountered in the past, they now are the source of the of high power, low density, and high costs in the cloud environment. To satisfy the cloud computing requirements, fundamental changes in processor architecture are required because users need to double performance and reduce power with each successive generation.
Tilera® provides such breakthroughs. Tilera-based servers supply the performance at a fraction of the space and use a fraction of the power. 2U servers based on Tilera processors replace up to eight high-end dual socket servers. Tilera’s servers are being used in web applications, database acceleration, search, and data mining while saving customers millions of dollars in operating costs.
Solidfire From the website:
SolidFire is an early-stage startup based in Atlanta, founded by a successful serial entrepreneur, that is building groundbreaking new cloud computing infrastructure technology.
We found on the internet:
Here’s what we know about what they’re building: it will be an enterprise-class cloud storage system that aims to provide reliable, high performance primary storage at low cost for even the most demanding public cloud and enterprise private cloud environments. SolidFire’s solid state architecture is said to enable independent virtualization of both capacity and performance, allowing complete flexibility in cloud-scale storage provisioning and management.
