Jan 31, 2009 in
IT - Data Management
This white paper describes a range of reference configurations to support mid to large online transaction processing (OLTP) solutions, capitalizing on the scalable power of HP Integrity 64-bit systems and Microsoft SQL Server 2005 (64-bit).
Always a critical part of the IT infrastructure, databases are at the heart of a number of trends in IT:
- Microsoft® Windows® applications and data are growing in size and complexity. Some applications running on 32-bit platforms may be reaching the limits of the architecture, specifically regarding scalability number of processors and amount of addressable memory.
- Organizations are now able to migrate complex solutions from high-cost proprietary systems to lower-cost Windows-based systems.
- Organizations are consolidating applications to fewer servers to simplify critical data center operations. Consolidation can reduce cost, management complexity, and physical space requirements in the data center.
The objective of these reference configurations is to:
- Reduce the time to purchase SQL Server 2005 configurations
- Reduce the time to implement SQL Server 2005 databases
- Reduce the risk to implement SQL Server 2005 databases
