HP-UX 11i v3 Operating Environments: Integrated by design

HP-UX 11i is sold and deployed in Operating Environments (OEs)—HP-tested and integrated software packages that deliver the HP-UX 11i operating system and related software.

OEs reduce time, risk, and costs through integration that decreases deployment time and complexity, simplifies lifetime maintenance, and reduces operations costs.

HP-UX 11i v3 OEs deliver today’s most popular HP-UX 11i software, allowing users to purchase, install, and maintain a package of up to 159 software components as one.

HP-UX 11i pricing is per-core and tiered according to server size.
