HP introduces new, faster processors
for EV7-based AlphaServer systems, delivering as promised
to our customers, per our roadmap. To address customers’ mission
critical requirements, HP now offers a faster EV7 processor
at 1.15 GHz for the AlphaServer
ES47 system (2 to 4 processors) and the AlphaServer
ES80 system (2 to 8 processors). For the most demanding
enterprise applications, HP announces the new EV7 processor
at 1.3 GHz for the AlphaServer
GS1280 system (2 to 64 processors). These higher
speed systems deliver performance gains of 13 to16
percent at the cost of systems with the previously
available
processor. |

A logical
choice for OpenVMS and Tru64 UNIX customers
|
 |
 |
Customers deploying Tru64 UNIX or Open VMS applications
will find HP AlphaServer systems the logical choice
as they prepare to evolve to a future environment based
on HP Integrity servers as business demands require.
HP has moved up the release of Tru64 v5.1B-2 to simplify
installation and improve reliability (shipping August
2004). HP continues to deliver on its commitment with
OpenVMS v7.3-2 and the upcoming release of OpenVMS
v8.2, available later this year which will support
both AlphaServer systems and Integrity servers. These
performance enhancements increase the value and price/performance
of the HP AlphaServer Systems and equip you with the
capacity to handle planned and unexpected increases
in compute workloads. |

Agility,
reliability, high availability
|
 |
 |
With these portfolio enhancements,
HP enables you to be more agile as they evolve your
IT environment to better respond to business needs.
HP’s continued support of the AlphaServer portfolio
benefits HP customers, including Cerner, whose ground-breaking
architecture enables healthcare providers to create
an electronic medical record that captures all linear
patient information and enables clients to go totally
paperless. Cerner has worked with HP to create an infrastructure
that ensures uncompromised reliability, high availability
of critical healthcare applications, and cost savings
that can be passed along to its customers where people’s
health — and often their lives — are on
the line.
"We have had a long standing history with HP
AlphaServer Technology. With each AlphaServer update,
the servers continue to offer better price performance
and scalability. These are major benefits to our
success in offering exceptional healthcare solutions
to our clients. HP AlphaServer systems and OpenVMS
continue to advance, providing the power we need
for today and tomorrow."
