HP kinetic energy server loses Oracle silver lining
On March 23, 2011, Oracle claims to stop all and face Intel Ann to rise Itanium The software development of the processor platform, this means kinetic energy server Integrity of Hewlett-Packard Will have no chance with Oracle new product in the future.
In view of convention, Ann suddenly main supporter Hewlett-Packard can be regarded as and purchase a big rival of Oracle after Sun, but not its main rival yet, because it does not have one’s own enterprise layer application products Oracle biggest rival is IBM, of both sides product line well matched, have who ask who ‘s problem just, the ones that see Oracle for POWER ” The favour ” Know ,So is very apt to be under one’s control, if proceed from the angle of competing for, Oracle ” chokes to death” An Teng, it is viable too paying attention to in the feeling. But in the official news release of Oracle, what we saw is another reason – -Intel and Hewlett-Packard will give up Ann and rise, so I Oracle do not accompany you to play either.
In fact, no matter from the need of the competition, or market’s own subsequent newer demand, Intel and Hewlett-Packard have no sufficient reason to give up Ann to rise in the product line, so seen from root, we can’t deny the practice of Oracle have idea of strangling Hewlett-Packard UNIX server.
Certainly, in Ann’s ecological environment of the software suddenly, and the vibrations brought of Oracle means this family alone. As far back as the end of 2009, Linux main provider’s red cap Red Hat Claim not to put out and support Linux operating system suddenly of Ann of new generation again, and Microsoft is on April 6, 2010 subsequently, that is to say Hewlett-Packard rises shortly before the kinetic energy servers of new generation of 9300 processors on the basis of the newest Ann of Intel, declare the intersection of Windows Server and the intersection of 2008 R2 and for the future edition, support Ann rise no longer, see above the intersection of HP and tabulation of operating system that new product support and then, only HP own HP-UX.
However, what the movements of Oracle are obviously given to Hewlett-Packard is amazing much bigger, shortly after announcing in Oracle, Hewlett-Packard does not hesitate to regard legal lawsuit as the means, ” demands wanting justice ” Oracle ,Both sides are playing user’s card, Hewlett-Packard claims Oracle gives up Ann and rises, it is to the greatest irresponsibility of user of the kinetic energy server, but Oracle criticizes Hewlett-Packard and Intel for building together ” Ann’s bubble boom suddenly ” ,Cheat the customer, let customers suffer losses.
But in any case, what has been done cannot be undone, the prospect which loses server of kinetic energy of Hewlett-Packard that Oracle supports must receive serious influence. However, silver lining, Hewlett-Packard has accelerated its key business system department BCS, Business Critical System, subordinate kinetic energy server and server product line of advanced x86 Transition paces.
To put it briefly, the integration IT framework of facing the future, combine one’s own advantage, went out of a new development route, this was November 22, 2011, ” Desai ” that Hewlett-Packard puts forward Odyssey Plan. A purport planned lies in carrying on organic integration of the key business server of traditional UNIX and x86, in order to meet the increasingly many customer to want to give consideration to the demand of UNIX and x86 key business on the single platform.
In this plan, maximum on some lies in the blade server code is ” DragonHawk ” from Intel to strong processor of adoption that Superdome 2 cabinet offers And can expand c-Class blade server ‘ The code is ” HydraLynx ” ,Within two years in the future, Hewlett-Packard will also strengthen Windows and Linux environment compatibly through the innovative technology of HP-UX. DragonHawk blade stems from Superdome2 blade compatibly, can expand to 32 slot systems, and HydraLynx blade stems from BL860/870/890c i2 blade, 8 highest slots, this kind of expansion ability, it is very rare in the field of present x86, handling capacity and dependability, don’t be spoken more, in addition, Hewlett-Packard shuts the infrastructure idea, thus has offered a kind of brand-new choice to user and employed the flexibility disposed after improving the key business.
In brief, Hewlett-Packard can have wound the block of Oracle through Odyssey, adopts the way of saving the nation in contours, new for Oracle database and in dispose at DragonHawk and HydraLynx blade among piece, and employ original HP-UX to move smoothly ‘ Products that x86 server of IBM and Dell is not equal to with DragonHawk and HydraLynx at present . The same application mode is suitable for no longer supporting Ann software manufacturer suddenly in these of Microsoft, Red Hat too. Vice President Eduardo Rosini of Microsoft SQL Server market, compatible with Red Hat executive vice president products and president Paul Cormier of technology department, show on the day of news briefing, their key application environment will reappear in BCS advanced x86 platform of Hewlett-Packard again, thought the customer offered better service.
Certainly, undoutedly, Odyssey plan itself to the intersection of Ann and rejuvenation suddenly, have substantive help, the kinetic energy server remains the more miserable one in UNIX industry, Oracle unique, can user in future choose greater influence especially when it is not that UNIX does not use that users appoint still ,But Odyssey of Hewlett-Packard plans to let the visual angle that the industry judges break away from CPU platform aspect, scrutinize from one systematic aspect of the overall situation again. This accords with the integration infrastructure CI of Hewlett-Packard too Idea,no matter which kind of is key for application,future can settle down in platforms brand-new that Odyssey offer, and can offer reliable services to customer.
So Ann rise future of platform seem, change so getting important. In a word, BCS belonged to from the kinetic energy server is as a whole, it is a positive action that Odyssey plans an undoubted one, it is in ” besieging and chasing ” from software manufacturer and rival for Hewlett-Packard, it is possible that it is offered that rejuvenating the route of a novel BCS server walks out. Certainly this will see execution ability and the customer’s maintenance ability of Hewlett-Packard finally.
