UMMARY
With the decentralization of corporations and corporate computing, departmental and remote
office servers must provide a range of features that have been unavailable in traditional
departmental and remote office servers.
Recognizing the changing business dynamics, Compaq
has developed a new business-critical departmental and remote office server that combines the
latest processor, network, and storage technology in a flexible new chassis.
The Compaq
ProLiant 2500 Server delivers a robust set of performance, management, and availability features
at a very affordable price.
This brief describes the performance, management, and availability technologies as well as the
system architecture that make the ProLiant 2500 an ideal departmental and remote office server.
