More than just the infrastructure, this utility computing framework includes the methods and mechanisms that maximize the value that e-services provide. Hyperplex is the technology architecture of the e- servicecenter. The first step toward utility computing and a key component of the e- servicescenter, iCOD allows you to take advantage of exciting new revenue opportunities, instantly. 9000 Servicecontrol and HP OpenView are management building blocks towards HP's vision of the future, when a single administrator is able to manage a worldwide, utility computing network from single point of control. Workload management and resource optimization across multiple systems is completely automated and fault management is fully integrated, achieving self-healing systems.
Consolidation is the single most cost-effective step when moving toward utility computing.
HP's systems consolidation utilizes current technologies while incorporating newer technologies such as Itanium processor family based servers.
