There are several important aspects to consider when migrating from Sun to HP.
1. Price Performance-- Get more performance for less
HP outperforms Sun in Enterprise Class server performance tests. Here are the performance numbers (JOPS*/core):
|
| Sun Blade X8420: |
90.0 |
| HP-UX 11i v3 running Integrity rx6600:
|
159.0 |
| Sun Fire X8400: |
83.3 |
| HP-UX 11i v3 running Integrity rx6600:
|
159.0 |
| Sun Fire T2000: |
73.2 |
| HP-UX 11i v3 running Integrity rx6600: |
159.0 |

*JOPS (jAppServer operations per second, which is the measurement for the SPECJAppServer2004 benchmark.

2. Linux-- Get more power on Linux
Through years of unwavering commitment to Linux, HP has become the leading platform for Linux. And as HP continues to build strong customer-focused relationships with Linux distributors such as Redhat, Debian, Novell, and Oracle, IT environments running Linux on HP Integrity will keep getting more powerful.

3. Green computing-- Achieve more efficient IT
HP maximizes power and cooling in each and every one of its server products, constantly improving the financial and environmental impact of the entire product line. Sun’s approach, on the other hand, is only focused on single pieces of its product line.
