Configure to Order (CTO) Servers: Custom Built Solutions for Modern IT Needs

Configure to order (CTO) servers are custom-built solutions designed to meet specific business needs. Unlike pre-configured servers, they allow organisations to select components such as processors, memory, and storage to optimise performance and efficiency. This flexibility makes CTO servers ideal for businesses looking to maximise IT infrastructure without overspending. 

Instead of purchasing a pre-configured system, or an empty chassis, with a configure to order server businesses can select the exact hardware specifications they need, including processors, memory, storage, and network capabilities. Popular options include HPE DL360 Gen10 8SFF CTO server and HPE DL380 Gen10 8SFF CTO server, both of which offer flexible customisation to meet diverse IT workloads. 

CTO servers are available across leading brands, including HPE and Dell, making it easier for businesses to align their server configurations with their IT infrastructure goals. 

• Tailored Performance for Unique Workloads: Every business has different computing needs. CTO servers provide the flexibility to customise server specifications to match specific workloads, ensuring optimal performance.  

• Cost Efficiency – Pay Only for What You Need: Control costs by only paying for the hardware and features that your business needs. Pre-packaged configurations often come with unnecessary components, but with CTO servers, your business will get exactly what suits its needs. 

• Scalability and Future-Proofing: Business growth often demands an expansion in IT capacity. CTO servers are designed with scalability in mind, allowing your company to start with a base configuration and upgrade components as your needs evolve. Whether it's expanding storage or boosting processing power, CTO servers offer the flexibility to future-proof IT infrastructure. 

While off-the-shelf servers offer convenience, they often come with unnecessary features or lack the capacity for specific workloads. CTO servers, on the other hand, offer customisation, ensuring that your business only invests in the components needed.  

CTO servers can be precisely configured to deliver optimal performance and energy efficiency. 

At Techbuyer, we have conducted in-depth research to understand how different configurations impact server performance and efficiency. This research underpins the tailored solutions we offer to our customers. 

Our studies have specifically examined the influence of BIOS settings and memory configurations on both performance and energy consumption. To date, we have published two research papers detailing our findings in these areas. 

When you work with Techbuyer to create your ideal server configuration, built for your unique workload and business structure, we apply the findings of our research team to ensure that you get the best device across all metrics, without compromise – performance, efficiency, cost and environmental impact.
