English term

leveraging industry-standard components

English to French Tech/Engineering Computers: Systems, Networks servers
"Backed by XXX's world-class service and support teams, the XXX [server] features the power of 8 processors and 32 GB of memory leveraging industry-standard components and the XXX [product name] architecture. The server features a traditional SMP operational model utilizing shared memory and the Linux operating system. It achieves high performance, ease of deployment and management with leading total cost of ownership."

Je ne comprends pas bien la signification de "leveraging" dans ce contexte. Ce verbe se rapporte-t-il à la mémoire de 32 Go seulement ou bien à la mémoire et aux 8 processeurs ?
De plus, "the XXX architecture" dépend-il du verbe "features" ou de "leveraging" ?

Merci !

exploitant au mieux

look come on guys – it’s a promotional text (« world-class » etc.).
We’re not just explaining how the thing is put together.

There must be some effort to sell it.

Hence :
« le [serveur] XXX est doté de la puissance de 8 processeurs et de 32 Go de mémoire, le tout exploitant au mieux des composants répondant aux normes les plus élevées du secteur ainsi que l’architecture y»

to leverage signifie...

tirer parti de, exploiter, et se rapporte à la fois aux processeurs et à la mémoire qui sont tous deux des composants répondant aux normes les plus élevées du secteur, et à l'architecture.
Du moins, c'est ce que je comprends! ;-)

agree Eric Le Carre : Tout à fait d'accord. On trouve aussi parfois 'capitaliser sur'. A voir dans ce contexte.

qui utilisent des composants standards

"Leverage Industry Standard Components — Get the cost and the ease-of-management benefits from running on industry standard hardware, operating systems and Ethernet networking technology."

Leveraging applies to both processors and memory and. therefore, it does not really matter whether the architecture depends on "features" or "leveraging" -- the meaning is the same.
