“Free” embedded service processors (ESP), like HP iLO, Dell® DRAC and IBM® RSA can actually hurt your budget when you consider the total cost of ownership.

You may already know that many servers come with embedded service processors. What you may not know is that a service processor from a single server manufacturer is usually a dedicated – and limited – solution for their equipment only.
