November 4, 2009 Announcements

Converged Infrastructure enables customers to rebalance physical and virtual worlds by realigning today’s traditional technology silos so that they can be shared by any application, optimized and managed as a service. Automatically delivering what you need, when you need it, leveraging your existing headcount.

We’re introducing several new blades innovations to make Converged Infrastructure a reality.

BladeSystem Matrix

BladeSystem Matrix converges compute, storage and network resources and can be easily purchased and quickly deployed. We’re expanding the portfolio to include the new Matrix ISV Program, which enables leading ISV applications for the HP BladeSystem Matrix platform. Customers can access tools and guidance to quickly provision the infrastructure for leading line-of-business applications.

Insight Software

Enhancements to the Insight Software portfolio make it easier for customers to rapidly adjust bladed infrastructure to respond to business demands.

HP Insight Dynamics is now able to seamlessly provision infrastructure and applications, deliver affordable disaster recovery for any application, and manage complete infrastructure lifecycle across multiple platforms . Insight Dynamics is now enriched with additional value. Customers now receive automated infrastructure provisioning and recovery with HP Insight Dynamics version 6.0 - allowing easy adoption of all Insight software infrastructure management capabilities.

Enhancements to HP Insight Control extend management capabilities into Microsoft® System Center and VMware vCenter Server, and also now include built-in server migration software. Reduce energy costs and manage energy usage by using predefined policies to direct power to servers providing critical business services and reduce power use of non-critical workloads.

FlexFabric

HP FlexFabric will enable customers to connect 1000's of servers to a virtualized, high performance and low-latency network that consolidates multiple protocols into a single fabric to dramatically lower network complexity and cost. HP will deliver the FlexFabric vision by converging the technology, management tools and partner ecosystems of the HP Virtual Connect and ProCurve network portfolios into a virtualized fabric for the data center.

We've also taken the amazing HP Virtual Connect with Flex-10 technology and added it to our Mission Critical UNIX server blades enabling workload mobility for ANY mission critical application. Currently, it is the only virtual environment for UNIX mission critical workflows.
