January 7, 2008 — (WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) — Data center products provider Rackable Systems (rackable.com) announced on Monday that it has been positioned in the Visionaries quadrant in analyst firm Gartner’s “Magic Quadrant for Worldwide Service Vendors, 4Q07.”
Rackable Systems has become the fastest growing X86 server provider among the top five providers in North America, having deployed hundreds of thousands of systems worldwide since the company’s inception, according to Gartner’s comprehensive review of the market in its Servers Quarterly Statistics Worldwide report released in November 2007.
