Today’s mission-critical needs are typically addressed Today, everything is mobile, connected, interactive, with UNIX® or mainframe solutions. As customers look to immediate, fluid, and mission critical. For businesses deploy more workloads on industry-standard solutions, to gain a competitive or service advantage in the face including Linux and Windows®, x86 can play a of these new customer and constituent patterns, their significant role in mission-critical computing. Your UNIX technology has to be at the forefront of enterprise investments today can adapt to future workloads. With innovation and growth. Tomorrow’s leaders will HP mission-critical Converged Infrastructure, you are be organizations that leverage technology to ready for the future. capitalize on, rather than simply adapt to, changing customer expectations. The result is accelerated business value delivery and the “flipping” of the IT cost ratio so that more resources can We are truly in the era of convergence. CIOs turn to be spent on innovation and strategic business initiatives infrastructure convergence to enable organizations to rather than on operations. transform technology into a business advantage that makes IT one of the most important partners in the Mission-critical converged infrastructure: organization. It does so by turning technology silos into adaptive pools of assets that can be shared by many the foundation of the next decade of applications and managed as a service to enable mission-critical computing instant access. Only HP is committed to providing the full mission-critical As a decision maker focused on increasing your experience by combining always-on resiliency in competitive advantage, you are likely to be searching systems, protected data in storage, secure networks, for the best way to overcome IT sprawl and free up and mission-critical services in an integrated untapped IT capacity so that you can react more quickly HP Mission-Critical Converged Infrastructure. As the to current and new business opportunities. The solution foundation of the world’s first mission-critical converged is a converged infrastructure—one that aligns IT with infrastructure, HP Integrity systems deliver: business demands. • Simplified and unified IT—a common modular HP brings this converged infrastructure approach to the architecture from x86 to HP Integrity Superdome 2 world of mission-critical computing in a way that no • Always-on resiliency—reliable from CPU to solution other technology partner can. Only HP is committed • Dynamic optimization—integrated virtualization and to providing the full mission-critical experience by management to optimally scale resources combining always-on resiliency in systems, protected • Future-ready infrastructure—today’s investments adapt data in storage, secure networks, and mission-critical to your future mission-critical workloads 3 Leverage the full mission-critical experience for your UNIX, HP Integrity NonStop, HP OpenVMS environments while extending this mission-critical experience to your Windows and Linux environments, all with HP mission-critical Converged Infrastructure as the “common” foundation. HP Project Odyssey helps you redefine the future of mission-critical computing by unifying UNIX and x86 server architectures to bring industry-leading availability, increased performance, and uncompromising client choice to a single platform.

HP Integrity systems deliver modern mission-critical results The new lineup of Integrity systems blends HP BladeSystem efficiency with HP Integrity resiliency. Designed for investment protection and longevity, these servers expect to support the next three generations of Intel® Itanium® processors. HP Integrity Superdome 2 is the ultimate mission-critical platform, scaling up, out, and within to consolidate applications on a common platform. Engineered with trusted Integrity Superdome reliability, Superdome 2 now includes a modular bladed design, common components, and standard racks. What’s more, Superdome 2 is more reliable than ever before, with a 450 percent boost to infrastructure reliability and fault tolerance built into the crossbar fabric.1 HP Integrity server blades are the industry’s first eight-socket UNIX scale-up server blades built on the #1 blade infrastructure2—flexible mission-critical server blades that combine the efficiency of HP BladeSystem to accelerate IT effectiveness. There are three models: the HP Integrity BL860c i2 Server Blade; the HP Integrity BL870c i2 Server Blade; and the BL890c i2 Server Blade, which is the industry’s first eight-socket UNIX scale-up server blade. The Integrity server blades feature our unique Blade Link technology, which combines multiple blades to create two-, four-, and eight-socket systems, as well as HP Virtual Connect Flex-10 technology, which offers increased network scalability and configuration flexibility with up to 20 times more networking bandwidth. Plus, Integrity server blades offer more than double the performance in half the footprint with built-in resiliency and less power.3 Moreover, HP Integrity server blades also support the HP-UX, Windows, and OpenVMS OSs. Finally, the ability to mix and match HP Integrity, HP ProLiant, and HP BladeSystem storage blades within the same enclosure provides flexibility to grow as your business demands change. HP Integrity BL860c i2 and BL870c i2 Server Blades, along with the HP Integrity rx2800 i2 Server, are now NEBS Level 3 certified. NEBS Level 3 certification, with –48 vdc power supplies, enables equipment operability in network facility environments. 1 Based on HP lab analysis of hardware crash rates, compared to the previous generation of Integrity Superdome. 2 Based on Q2 CY2011 IDC Quarterly Server Tracker, August 2011. 3 Based on HP internal comparisons and HP analysis of comparably configured HP rackmount systems in testing conducted in February 2010. 4 Rackmount Integrity servers and Integrity provision your infrastructure and applications for your private cloud in minutes rather than months, resulting in NonStop servers complete the line TCO savings of up to 56 percent.4 CloudSystem Matrix HP Integrity servers continue to be available in the same is an efficient path to a mission-critical private cloud on rackmount configurations that many of our customers Integrity servers. prefer to deploy. Complementing the Integrity family, CloudSystem Matrix can be further extended by HP Integrity NonStop servers provide 24x7x365 adding HP Cloud Service Automation software application availability and are ideal for supporting to include a self-service infrastructure portal for applications that require 100 percent availability, auto-provisioning and built-in lifecycle management real-time high-volume transaction processing, and to enhance infrastructure, monitor applications, and exceptional security—all delivered out of the box. offer uptime for your cloud and traditional IT.
