HP 9000s come in a wide range of models from single-CPU, entry-level machines to high-end Superdome models that support up to 128 processors and 1TB of memory.
The first HP9000 was introduced in 1982 and used the Motorola 68000 CPU.
HP9000Integrity Servers offer the same wide range of models as PA-RISC, but are based on Intel's Itanium CPUs, which HP helped design.
HP9000 Series 500 computers were based on a processor architecture called FOCUS, comprising five NMOS-III ICs: a 32-bit segmented stack-architecture CPU (very like the classic 16-bit HP 3000 CPU), an I/O processor (IOP), a memory controller, a 16Kx8 dynamic RAM, and a clock driver.
HP's NMOS-III IC process allowed sufficient density and speed that heat dissipation was a problem, and so the ICs are mounted on special printed-circuit boards called "finstrates" -- the printed-circuit board has a 1mm copper sheet at its core, and the IC substrate is epoxied directly to this.
The HP9000 Series 520 also had several built-in I/O devices: a display, which could be either color or monochrome; a keyboard; a floppy-disk drive; an optional internal thermal printer mounted below the display; and an internal hard disk.
HP's Professional Service Consult ants explained to Tokio Marine's senior management that open HP9000 Business Servers would enable the company to improve response time and ease of use while preserving data integrity and security.
HP Encina/9000 and HP DCE/9000 would serve as the foundation for building the "middleware" on the HP9000 Business Server that would enable communication between the branch office PCs and the mainframes.
Tokio Marine asked HP to develop the middleware as well as to assume the role of prime contractor, with responsibility for project management and oversight of third-party developers.
As with all HP9000 servers, the Superdome is an ideal steppingstone to HPIntegrity servers based on the Intel
When you're ready to transition, the HP9000 Superdome chassis can be upgraded with Intel Itanium processors simply by swapping cell boards.
This capability lets you test and migrate all or a portion of your infrastructure to a standards-based architecture, enabling you to continue to enjoy the world-class investment protection of your HP9000 server as you move to the HPIntegrity platform-at an affordable, incremental cost.
With the introduction of the PA-8900 processor, customer benefit from enhanced performance, greater scalability, and a technology path that provides improvements to existing HP9000 servers and can easily be upgraded to HPIntegrity servers.
With the latest enhancement to the HP9000 server line, HP provides a valuable platform for our needs today and a stepping stone to Integrity servers with in-box upgrades.
With the HPIntegrity servers, we were able to simply install existing PA-RISC based software and run it without alteration.
The HPIntegrity BL860c Server Blade brings together the value of Integrity servers and the economics of the HP BladeSystem.
