   The SMB chassis might be useful for customers who are comfortable without the redundancy that comes with two management modules, said Jerry Chen, senior director for enterprise services with NeuStar Inc. in Sterling, Virginia.
   
   "It can be used as an entry-level blade server that doesn't require high-availability service level agreements," he said. The $1,000 promotional pricing is "a very good price point to get into this," he added.
   
   NeuStar, a 400-employee company that provides database services to the telecommunications industry, maintains a data center with approximately 100 of IBM's HS20 blade servers to run internal applications as well as Web and DNS (Domain Name System) farm services, Chen said.
   
   Though the new chassis may not be appropriate for NeuStar's customer-facing applications, which have stringent service level agreements, Chen said he would consider using them. "If I wanted to use it for an internal service, then I might go with this stripped-down version of the BladeCenter, because it will provide me with a more cost-effective solution," he said.
