HP redefines future of Mission-Critical Computing

HP has launched a project "Odyssey" which will redefine the future of mission-critical computing with a development roadmap that will unify UNIX and x86 server architectures to bring industry-leading availability, increased performance and uncompromising client choice to a single platform.

HP's new development roadmap includes ongoing innovations to HP Integrity servers, HP NonStop systems and the HP-UX and OpenVMS operating systems. The roadmap also includes delivering blades with Intel Xeon processors for the HP Superdome 2 enclosure (code name "DragonHawk") and the scalable c-Class blade enclosures (code named "HydraLynx”), while fortifying Windows and Linux environments with innovations from HP-UX within the next two years.

"Clients have been asking us to expand the mission-critical experience that is delivered today with HP-UX on Integrity to an x86-based infrastructure. HP plans to transform the server landscape for mission-critical computing by using the flexibility of HP BladeSystem and bringing key HP technology innovations from Integrity and HP-UX to the x86 ecosystem. Unlike the competition, HP offers an open, integrated, single platform approach," said Martin Fink, Senior Vice-President & General Manager, Business Critical Systems, HP.

"Intel's continued innovation with a multigeneration Itanium processor roadmap combined with existing and future mission-critical capabilities of Intel Xeon processors allow HP and Intel to provide customers with greater flexibility and choice. Together with HP, we will be able to give customers the ability to do mission-critical computing on their terms, with a broad range of operating systems and applications," said Kirk Skaugen, Vice-President & General Manager, Datacenter and Connected Systems Group, Intel.

"Customers trust Microsoft and HP with their enterprise computing needs. By furthering our partnership, Microsoft and HP will bring together the world's leading server and software solutions to let customers harness the flexibility and scalability of Microsoft Windows Server and SQL Server on HP Converged Infrastructure for their broad mission-critical computing needs of tomorrow," said Eduardo Rosini, Corporate Vice-President, SQL Server Marketing, Microsoft.
