HP NonStop Server Primer

Overview This paper provides information about clustered HP NonStop servers and the single-image virtualization technologies that are designed in every product - out of the box. These technologies provide a computing environment that allows instant takeover when a node fails and linear scalability spanning from two to 4,080 nodes in a single local or geographically distributed cluster. In addition, the paper provides information about industry-leading self-management and self-healing technologies used to reduce or eliminate the administrative tasks associated with application, database, and system management.
