The server supports either a Microsoft® Windows™ NT, Novell® NetWare, SCO® UNIXware or Linux environment. A rich set of available applications and middleware, coupled with the relatively low cost of server hardware and management features, creates a new computing price/performance point. It provides a cost-effective computing platform for the corporate data center. The data center is a demanding technology environment, requiring computing equipment that is extraordinarily reliable, scalable and manageable. In a data center, various applications are run on server equipment and each application puts different demands (server resource utilization) on the equipment, depending upon whether it is processor (CPU), memory, network or input/output (I/O) intensive. It is important that the server equipment be able to support these loads in an optimized and balanced manner. The HP NetServer LXr 8500 is an ideal solution for both centralized and distributed computing challenges that customers confront today. The HP NetServer family of servers can play a leading role in client/server application environments such as enterprise resource planning (ERP), on-line transaction processing (OLTP) with database management systems (DBMS), data warehousing and data marts and thin client services. The additional capability provided by the HP NetServer LXr 8500 includes the latest in computing technology: Intel® Pentium® III Xeon™ processors, the Intel Profusion chipset, 64-bit 66 MHz PCI I/O and support for very large physical memory up to 32 GB. The server is optimized for data centers and designed to meet their performance, scalability, storage density and high availability needs. VHSWHPEHUýìäää This white paper provides an overview of several application areas where the HP NetServer LXr 8500 can provide a highly capable and cost effective solution. The paper examines the nature of the application requirements (resource utilization) for server resources. Opportunities for server consolidation are also examined. The paper concludes with a discussion of the features of the HP NetServer LXr 8500 that support and meet these demands. 1
