  DEC 10000 AXP Mainframe-Class Servers: 21st Century Computing Starts Today 

       
  DEC 10000 AXP (TM) servers are Digital's highest performance Alpha AXP (TM)
  systems.  Designed to meet the rigorous demands of compute-intensive, large
  enterprise applications, DEC 10000 AXP systems are based upon the Alpha AXP
  64-bit RISC (Reduced Instruction Set Computing) architecture.   Running at
  200 megahertz, and with up to six processors, the DEC 10000 AXP system
  provides the fastest enterprise server performance in the industry -- at a
  fraction of the price of a traditional mainframe or supercomputer. 
  
  The DEC 10000 AXP is the logical next step in enterprise-wide computing. It
  sets the standard for versatility, price/performance, power, and
  reliability, providing the ideal alternative to the traditional
  "mainframe."  And, it allows you to maximize the application power
  available in one location, without isolating it from the rest of the
  enterprise. 
  
  Through Network Applications Support (NAS), Digital's distributed software
  management architecture, standards-based software tools implement the most
  challenging client/server applications while supporting multiple computer
  vendors' platforms, protocols, and networks.  Your current applications 
  have an assured future running on a high-performance, balanced, open system
  platform.  Plus, you can choose the operating system environment that best
  meets your needs:  OpenVMS AXP or the UNIX (R)-based DEC OSF/1 (TM) AXP.  
  The result is unequaled software flexibility in a single system, with 
  outstanding investment protection. 
  
  Digital's mainframe-class systems are comprehensive, integrated, packaged
  solutions that redefine the economics of computing.  DEC 10000 AXP systems
  deliver the complete environment for compute-intensive and commercial
  applications  -- today and tomorrow. 
  
  
  Unparalleled Performance and Scalability 
  ========================================
  DEC 10000 AXP servers offer exceptional performance and expandability.
  These servers may be configured with up to six CPUs, each based on
  Digital's 64-bit RISC-based Alpha AXP architecture.  Their scalability
  allows you to improve performance in a number of dimensions -- making the
  DEC 10000 AXP the ideal global server for the 90s and beyond. 
  
  Up to 14 gigabytes (GB) of memory can be accommodated, more than enough for
  the most memory-intensive applications.  For those applications where I/O
  is critical, up to four high-speed XMI or Futurebus+ I/O channels and eight
  FDDI links are supported -- thereby balancing I/O with CPU power.  The CPU,
  memory, and I/O channels can be upgraded simply and cost-effectively with
  future generations of components.  No other system in the industry offers
  the same power and versatility. 
  
  DEC 10000 AXP systems support up to up to 56 GB of in-cabinet disk storage
  and over 10 terabytes (TB) of disk storage in a clustered configuration. 
  You get the pure CPU power needed for large, compute-intensive
  applications, as well as the I/O capacity and throughput required to
  support large enterprise information repositories for thousands of users. 
     
  Prestoserve (TM) is offered to increase the NFS (R) responsiveness of DEC
  10000 AXP servers operating with DEC OSF/1 AXP.  Prestoserve significantly
  improves NFS throughput in heavy workloads, so file servers can support
  more clients and provide better response times. 
  
  
  High Availability and Reliability for Your Most Critical Work
  =============================================================
  For the DEC 10000 AXP, high availability means the ability to continue
  functioning in the event of a power outage, not just maintain memory
  contents.  Ongoing operation is ensured by the high-reliability features
  incorporated in the basic design.  The CPU technology is based on Digital's
  proven high-reliability CMOS technology.  ECC protection is provided on the
  system bus, on all memory modules, and on the 4 MB CPU write-back cache. 
  And the power system uses several power conditioning functions to protect
  against high-voltage transients. 
  
  An N+1 power system allows for higher system availability in the event of a
  power regulator failure.  Systems are configured with three power
  regulators per cabinet, ensuring that even the most heavily configured
  systems can keep operating if a power regulator fails. System-level
  integrated UPS (Uninterruptible Power System) capability is provided to
  support *all* elements within the CPU and I/O expansion cabinets: CPU,
  memory, I/O channels and devices, and in-cabinet disk storage. The UPS
  sustains full processing for up to one hour. Volume shadowing and warm swap
  of disks ensure exceptional levels of availability. 
  
  
  Ethernet, DSSI, CI, and FDDI OpenVMS Clustered Systems 
  ======================================================
  Clustering allows multiple computer systems to share disks and spread the
  computing load across multiple CPUs.  Through clustering, a collection of
  processors and storage elements can operate as one system. OpenVMS
  clustered systems represent yet another way to grow DEC 10000 AXP systems. 
  
  The DEC 10000 AXP server supports Ethernet-based Local Area Clusters, a
  low-cost avenue to resource sharing, centralized system management, and
  increased data storage for work group users. 
  
  If your business and computing needs require clustering capability, you'll
  find that DSSI clustered systems offer a cost-effective, entry-level
  option. Should your need for availability, online storage, and performance
  grow, the DSSI clustered system can be integrated with a high-end, CI-based
  clustered system. 
  
  CI clustered systems support multiple paths to provide higher availability
  and performance for business-critical computing.  DEC 10000 AXP servers
  support over 10,000 gigabytes (10 terabytes) of storage in a CI clustered
  configuration. This is a phenomenal amount of storage, offering both growth
  and high availability. 
  
  FDDI clustered configurations connect geographically dispersed sites into
  an FDDI network, which can either provide redundant data center operations
  or consolidate the management of the data center sites at one location. In
  all clustered systems -- whether the interconnect is FDDI, CI, DSSI, or
  Ethernet -- all data is available to all systems on the cluster. 
   
  Value-Priced Configurations 
  ===========================
  DEC 10000 AXP ADVANTAGE-SERVER systems offer value-priced, balanced
  configurations -- complete with memory, I/O controllers, disks, tape, and
  Network Application Support (NAS) software.  They also give you the
  flexibility to add components, such as user licenses, as needed. 
  
  Exceptional Service and Support
  ===============================
  The service and support solution choices for the DEC 10000 AXP server are
  the most comprehensive in the industry.  Highlights include: 
  
  o  A formal needs assessment and operations review, which forms the
     basis for planning and documenting other services via the System
     Support Plan

  DEC 7000 AXP Data Center Servers: 21st Century Computing Starts Today
  ---------------------------------------------------------------------
  
  DEC 7000 AXP (TM) servers are members of Digital's 64-bit family of Alpha
  AXP (TM) servers designed for the rigorous demands of data center
  computing.  They offer single or multiprocessing capability for
  mission-critical technical and commercial applications that previously
  required larger, more costly systems -- applications such as transaction
  processing, general ledger, securities trading, signal processing,
  molecular modeling, and imaging, to name only a few.  If you need a
  high-performance system, you'll find that you can "rightsize" your
  application on a DEC 7000 AXP server and get powerful performance at low
  cost. 
  
  DEC 7000 AXP servers are the industry's most expandable servers; they can
  grow as your needs grow.  The DEC 7000 AXP modular platform lets you
  improve performance in a number of different dimensions -- symmetric
  multiprocessing (SMP), larger memory, more I/O bandwidth, greater disk
  capacity, Prestoserve (TM), and clustered systems -- all while building
  upon your current investments.  And Digital's track record of reliability,
  service, and support ensures that the DEC 7000 AXP production system will
  not let you down. 
  
  Digital's newest data center solution offers a choice of open operating
  system environments: OpenVMS AXP or the UNIX (R)-based DEC OSF/1 (TM) AXP. 
  And DEC 7000 AXP servers provide seamless integration with servers,
  workstations, and PCs from other computer vendors, as well as Digital. 
  Outstanding hardware and software investment protection is ensured through
  Network Application Support (NAS) and client/server computing. 
  
  With exceptional performance, the highest levels of reliability and
  dependability, the utmost flexibility and expandability, and the world's
  fastest RISC processor, Digital's DEC 7000 AXP servers are 21st century
  systems for today's data center needs! 
  
  Most Expandable Data Center Server 
  ==================================
  DEC 7000 AXP servers provide both balanced performance and outstanding
  configuration flexibility.  Standard on the DEC 7000 AXP is an internal 128
  bit wide synchronous system bus, which provides 800 MB/sec peak (640 MB/sec
  sustained) bandwidth, virtually eliminating the potential for bottlenecks. 
  Support for up to six CPUs, seven memory arrays (ranging from 64 MB to 2 GB
  capacity), and four XMI or Futurebus+ I/O channels allows users to
  configure large systems to suit a wide variety of needs. The CPU, memory,
  and I/O can all be upgraded over time, with future generations of
  components. Today's investments are protected. 
  
  SCSI-2, DSSI, and SDI based storage are supported in the DEC 7000 AXP. The
  SCSI-2 disks reside in BA-350 modular storage arrays within the system
  cabinet and expander cabinets.  Each storage shelf holds as many as seven
  SCSI devices.  A total of 20 modular storage shelves can be accommodated
  internally on an expanded DEC 7000 AXP -- bringing the total to 140 GB of
  local SCSI-2 storage.  DSSI and SDI storage are external to the DEC 7000
  AXP, providing more than 10,000 gigabytes of disk storage in an OpenVMS
  clustered configuration -- easily enough capacity for the largest data
  center applications. 
  
  The balanced I/O subsystem on the DEC 7000 AXP provides substantial
  throughput (one 100 MB/sec XMI I/O channel is standard). That capacity can
  be greatly expanded by the addition of up to three more 12-slot XMI or
  9-slot 180 MB/sec Futurebus+ I/O channels, for a total I/O bandwidth of 400
  MB/sec.  The ability to access third-party I/O adapters and devices is
  provided via Futurebus+ adapters. 
  
  Prestoserve is offered to increase the NFS (R) responsiveness of DEC 7000
  AXP servers operating with DEC OSF/1 AXP.  Prestoserve significantly
  improves NFS throughput in heavy workloads, so file servers can support
  more clients and provide better response times. 
  
  
  Unsurpassed Performance and Price/Performance
  =============================================
  The DEC 7000 AXP server offers the highest level of performance and the
  best price/performance of any data center system on the market today. The
  reason for this success is the 182 MHz DECchip 21064. With SMP, performance
  is increased six-fold -- all within the same cabinet and at very
  competitive prices. 
  
  High Availability Features 
  ==========================
  The DEC 7000 AXP server is designed to meet the highest reliability and
  availability needs of data centers today -- and tomorrow.  Data protection
  and security features support your data center's need for privacy,
  confidentiality, integrity, and accountability.  The CPU technology is
  based on Digital's proven high-reliability CMOS technology.  ECC protection
  is provided on the system bus, on all memory modules, and on the 4 MB CPU
  write-back cache. The power system uses several power conditioning
  functions to protect against high-voltage transients. 
  
  An optional N+1 power system allows for higher system availability in the
  event of a power regulator failure.  Systems can be configured with up to
  three power regulators per cabinet, ensuring that even the most heavily
  configured systems can keep operating if a power regulator fails. Optional
  system-level UPS (Uninterruptible Power System) capability is available to
  support *all* elements within the CPU and I/O expansion cabinets: CPU,
  memory, I/O channels and devices, and in-cabinet disk storage.  Plus,
  volume shadowing and warm swap of disks are supported, thereby ensuring
  exceptional levels of availability. 
  
  Ethernet, DSSI, CI, and FDDI OpenVMS Clustered Systems
  ======================================================
  OpenVMS clustered systems are years ahead of the competition, making
  Digital the world's largest supplier of high-availability solutions.
  Clustering allows multiple computer systems to share disks and spread the
  computing load across multiple CPUs.  Through clustering, a collection of
  processors and storage elements can operate as one system.  OpenVMS
  clustered systems represent yet another way to grow DEC 7000 AXP servers. 
  
  The DEC 7000 AXP server supports Ethernet-based Local Area Clusters, a
  low-cost avenue to resource sharing, centralized system management, and
  increased data storage for work group users. 
  
  DSSI clustered systems offer a cost-effective, entry-level option for the
  user whose business and computing needs require clustering capability.
  Should availability, online storage, and performance needs grow in the
  future, the DSSI clustered system can be integrated with a high-end,
  CI-based clustered system. 
  
  CI clustered systems support multiple paths to provide higher availability
  and performance for business-critical computing.  Over 10,000 gigabytes
  (that's 10 terabytes!) of storage can be supported by DEC 7000 AXP servers
  in a CI clustered configuration.  This is a phenomenal amount of storage,
  offering both growth and high availability. 
  
  FDDI clustered configurations connect geographically dispersed sites into
  an FDDI network, which can provide either redundant data center operations
  or consolidate the management of the data center sites at one location. In
  all clustered systems -- whether the interconnect is FDDI, CI, DSSI, or
  Ethernet -- all data is available to all systems on the cluster. 
       
  Innovative Packaging 
  ====================
  DEC 7000 AXP ADVANTAGE-SERVER systems offer outstanding, value-priced,
  balanced configurations -- complete with CPU, memory, I/O channels, disks,
  tape, CD-ROM, base operating system, and Network Application Support (NAS)
  software.  They also give you the flexibility to add components, such as
  user licenses, as needed. 
     
  When workspace is at a premium, you can stack system components in a
  19-inch rackmount cabinet.  Up to three CPUs with as much as 6 GB of
  memory, two Ethernet ports, four disk controllers, and one optional
  Futurebus+ or XMI I/O channel can all be mounted in the same rack -- with
  no increase in the amount of floor space required. 
  
  Exceptional Service and Support 
  ===============================
  Whether the mission of your DEC 7000 AXP is technical computing,
  client-server computing, enterprise integration, or rightsizing, Digital
  has the consulting, technical, and support services to help you. With more
  than 40,000 professionals in 450 locations around the world, Digital is

  processing, and visualization will be well served by the performance of
  this powerful system. Also designed  for client-server configurations, the
  DEC 4000 AXP system  provides a cost-effective response to "rightsizing" -- 
  re-engineering your applications to new productivity levels. 
     
  The DEC 4000 AXP system features exceptional uniprocessor power, symmetric
  multiprocessing capabilities, and balanced I/O -- all in a "go anywhere"
  package. Designed for maximum expandability, the DEC 4000 AXP system can be
  easily tailored to your application requirements. 
         
  The DEC 4000 AXP system supports both OpenVMS AXP  -- Digtial's
  industry-standard operating environment -- and DEC OSF/1(tm) AXP  -- a
  standards-compliant UNIX (tm) operating environment. For optimum investment
  protection, the DEC 4000 AXP system can be smoothly integrated with
  existing VAX and DECsystem family members or into your multi-vendor
  environment. And with Digital's Network Application Support (NAS), DEC 4000
  AXP systems will support a wide range of desktop devices -- ensuring
  hardware and software protection. 
  
  The DEC 4000 AXP system drives higher performance and productivity into
  your power-hungry technical and business applications -- to help you gain a
  clear advantage today and into the 21st century! 
     
             
  Balanced System Performance 
  ---------------------------
  
  The DEC 4000 AXP system features exceptional power balanced with
  capabilities that makes high performance available to a broader population 
  of users than ever before. Its CPU runs at 160 MHz -- faster than any
  system in its class! And system performance can be nearly doubled when a
  DEC 4000 AXP system is configured with two CPUs running in symmetric
  multiprocessing mode. 
  
  The DEC 4000 AXP system's memory subsystem is tightly integrated with the
  system architecture. Maximum memory is a substantial 512 MB today -- with 2
  GB available in the future. Memory access is provided by a 128-bit
  super-high speed system bus that eliminates bottlenecks, and allows
  additional performance boosts through memory interleaving. And 1 MB cache
  accelerates access to data and instructions. All of these features
  complement the  CPU to deliver unprecedented balanced performance --
  optimizing your most demanding applications. 
  
  
   
  High-Capacity, Integrated System I/O
  ------------------------------------
  
  Equipped with extraordinary throughput capabilities, the DEC 4000 system
  incorporates an integral I/O module to meet varying application
  requirements. 
  
  For applications requiring the highest possible bandwidth to disk, an I/O
  module is available that supports four fast SCSI-2 buses, each of which can
  operate at up to 10 MB/second -- with a total sustained throughput of up to
  25 MB/second. 
  
  For applications where high availability is paramount, an I/O module is
  available that supports both Digital Storage System Interconnect (DSSI) and
  SCSI buses, and dual-rail Ethernet links. The adapter automatically
  configures each of the four buses to either DSSI or standard SCSI-2,
  depending on the attached devices, and is capable of data access rates of
  over 3000 I/Os per second. 
                          
                               
  "Go-Anywhere" Packaging
  =======================
  
  The DEC 4000 AXP system --the "go-anywhere" system -- is a compact,
  office-sized package that is about the size of a two-drawer file cabinet.
  And this "go-anywhere" system uses single phase power and operates in a
  normal office environment! Components of the DEC 4000 AXP system can be
  stacked in an industry standard 19-inch rackmountable package that's ideal
  for laboratory, manufacturing, or environments where workspace is at a
  premium. 
                               
                                                           
  High Availability Features
  ==========================
                               
  Clustering allows multiple computer systems to share disks for increased
  data availability. Distributing the computing load across multiple systems
  provides greater system uptime. The DEC 4000 AXP system supports
  Ethernet-based Local Area Clusters, a low-cost avenue to resource  sharing,
  centralized system management, and increased data storage for work group
  users. 
  
  Digital's advanced DSSI technology will allow high-availability clustering,
  and on-line disk replacement and repair - disk "warm swap". 
                              
  Other high availability features include ECC error detection and correction
  memory and optional Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS).
