Adaptive Infrastructure Using ProLiant Technologies

Overview Businesses of all sizes are continuously challenged to compete in today’s fast changing, global economy. Resources are scarce and business models are constantly transforming, while customer expectations continue to increase. To satisfy these business demands, information technology (IT) professionals must create an infrastructure that adapts easily to change, conserves resources, and is responsive to customer requirements. This paper describes how the HP vision for an adaptive infrastructure can be implemented using ProLiant servers and industry-standard technologies to meet those IT challenges. It describes three interrelated technology areas that work together to form the basis of an adaptive infrastructure: continuous, secure operations; automated, intelligent management; and dynamic resource optimization.
