Key Benefits |
Scalable performance and bandwidth
|
|
| At the heart of NonStop S-series servers is the HP ServerNet interconnect fabric architecture, a technology that provides high-performance interconnection among processors and I/O devices. It also provides excellent growth potential, both in processing performance and in system bandwidth, to handle the increasing demands of the most powerful online transaction processing (OLTP), business intelligence, and electronic commerce applications. |
|
Continuous system availability
|
|
NonStop S-series servers are designed to minimize both planned and unplanned downtime. Running on the NonStop operating system, NonStop business continuity and disaster recovery software detects, isolates, and enables recovery from component failures without applications being affected. No modifications to applications are required to enable this transparent recovery.
|
Easy service and management
|
|
The management and service features of NonStop S-series servers maximize system availability and minimize operating costs. Special diagnostic and maintenance software automatically isolates faults, tests and restarts components, and reports any needed action.
|
|
Flexibility in configuration and expansion
|
NonStop S-series servers enable you to easily configure and expand the system. The premium high-end NonStop S88000 server is based on the MIPS R16000 microprocessor with 8 megabytes of secondary cache. The high-end NonStop S78000 server is based on the MIPS R14000 microprocessor with 8 megabytes of secondary cache. The NonStop S780 server is an entry-level server in the NonStop product line. It is available only in a two processor configuration using the NonStop S78000 processor.
|
|
Wide range of networking and connectivity options
|
| NonStop S-series servers support open networking standards, including TCP/IP versions 4 and 6 (IPv4 and IPv6), Internet Packet Exchange/Sequenced Packet Exchange (IPX/SPX), NetBIOS, SNA, and OSI. They also support protocols that enable you to integrate a wide variety of standard and nonstandard devices into your information system. |
