Migration paths for Dell customers

Arrows

HP has the right solution to meet your needs―offering both flexibility and choice. Our tailored 'Migration Assessments' can provide details on options, for instance, migration to HP-UX 11i, Linux, or Windows OS. In many cases, such as moving from SPARC or POWER environments, tremendous cost savings can be achieved by adopting a 'split tier' environment of ProLiant and Integrity servers running a mix of Windows, Linux and HP-UX 11i.

Standardise on HP ProLiant servers and win with industry firsts in resiliency, scalable performance and automated power management.

Why choose this path?
Your Dell rackmount servers have reached the end of their lifecycle and you are looking to reduce costs by consolidating servers. HP ProLiant servers include pioneering innovations such as power and cooling, virtualisation, and management that go beyond industry standards and help to reduce costs.
How do you win?
HP ProLiant servers have an ROI in as little as two months and start you on the path to a converged infrastructure.

'Our production environment puts an incredible demand on our servers, pushing our data centres to their limit. The new ProLiant G6 server blades (powered by Intel Xeon 5500 series processors) help to alleviate that pressure by delivering a significant increase in performance per watt.'
