Hey folks,
Total beginner / noob here and have a few really basic questions:
1) is a baseboard the same as a motherboard? I read somewhere that servers now come with 4 baseboards per server (up from 2 back in 2014), and this might increase further as data traffic continues to grow - anyone seeing evidence of this? how many more baseboards can a server fit?
2) been reading about baseboard management controllers - is there any differentiation between top BMC vendor Aspeed and other BMC vendors? Pros and cons?
Thanks in advance!
