Why use the HP e3000?

High Availability

The demand for e-services is skyrocketing. More and more frequently, businesses are bringing tasks and transactions online, creating increasingly higher demands for access to mission-critical data and placing an even-greater strain on the hardware available to carry out these demands. We stand ready to help your organization gain significant competitive advantage by enhancing the HP e3000 platform's legendary 24/7 reliability with state-of-the-art online data management technologies and service.

The Internet stretches the limits of today's systems and solutions with the exponential increase in the amount of information and access to it, 24 hour, worldwide accessibility, free-flowing direction, distance flexibility and just plain-speed for everything. This emphasizes the urgent need for Internet/e-services solutions that provide high availability of critical business applications to meet the challenge of stretching and surpassing limits for today's systems.

The HP e3000 with its three levels of availability eminently qualifies it for Internet and e-services solutions: basic system availability with built-in fault avoidance; high availability for rapid recover; and disaster tolerance. In addition, the HP e3000 keeps pace with the growing memory needs of Internet and e-services solutions with increased memory sizes to at least 16GB.

The basic system availability with built-in fault avoidance refers to the inherent robustness of the HP e3000 and the MPE/iX high availability operating system. Features, such as online device configuration, error correcting memory, Patch/iX, Stage/iX and electronic patch delivery, minimize downtime for routine maintenance.
