With more than twice the performance of the previous generation of HP Integrity servers1 and less than half the price-to-performance ratio of competitive offerings, these new servers reinforce HP’s long-held position as the No.1 high-end UNIX system vendor, an HP statement said quoting IDC.

Additionally, HP has extended the multi-operating system capabilities of the HP Virtual Server Environment for Integrity servers to help customers grow and shrink virtual servers in response to changing business needs.

“This new server lineup is a key example of HP’s Adaptive Infrastructure offerings, which help customers stay ahead of changing business and IT demands and enable them to build cost-effective, next-generation data centers,” said Vish Mulchand, director, Business Development, HP Enterprise Storage and Servers, Asia Pacific and Japan, HP. “Indian enterprises can now respond even more quickly to business requirements with Integrity as a core component of their adaptive infrastructure.”

Customers such as Ashok Leyland, Bharat Forge Limited and Videocon are among those that have chosen the Integrity line for simplified management, secured availability and flexible capacity.

The HP Integrity rx6600 and rx3600 servers offer mainframe-caliber high availability at entry-level server prices. Available with HP-UX 11i, Microsoft Windows, Linux or OpenVMS operating environments, the servers provide the most flexibility and capacity in their class.

Speaking on the occasion of the launch, Sachin Chheda, World Wide Product Manager, Business Critical Servers, HP, said, “ With the latest generation of Integrity servers, multiple operating systems are immediately available on all new HP Integrity servers (HP-UX, Windows, Linux, OpenVMS), including a new version of HP OpenVMS v8.3. The latest Integrity servers offer the industry’s best price/performance and are the best choice for customers to improve return on IT Investment”.

HP Integrity servers now also include the HP zx2 chipset, which delivers more than two times the energy efficiency of the previous generation, and slashes power and cooling costs by up to 50 percent. In addition, the Integrity line has doubled its capacity with the new dual-core Intel Itanium 2 “Montecito” processor, the statement added.
