| Featuring up to eight PA-8800
processors and the performance-enhancing HP zx1 Chipset,
along with 64 GB of available memory, the HP 9000 rp4440-8
server offers more performance per CPU, more than twice
the performance density, and three times the memory scalability
available in the previous-generation rp5400 series servers
based on the PA-8700 processor. For customers new to the
HP 9000 family, the rp4440-8 server is an opportunity
to jumpstart your server performance in a variety of middle-tier
applications- from Java™/Web applications to ERP
and CRM-in the datacenter.
HP has designed the HP 9000 rp4440-8 server to get
the most out of the powerful PA-8800 processor by integrating
the processor with our own HP zx1 Chipset. This chipset
offers decreased memory latency and increased memory
bandwidth, enabling the server to achieve even greater
performance. What's more, the same chipset is specifically
designed for use with both the PA-8800 processor and
the Intel® Itanium® 2 processor, making it both
easy and effective to perform an in-box upgrade from
the HP 9000 rp4440-8 server to the HP Integrity rx4640
server.
This makes an already highly scalable server even more
flexible and ready to meet new demands and business
challenges as your organization continues to grow. In
all, the HP 9000 rp4440-8 server is a highly flexible
platform, making affordable 8-way serving a reality
for both new and existing customers. |
