GENEVA, Switzerland, Apr. 9, 2008 – HP today introduced four new operating environments (OEs) with the latest release of HP-UX 11i v3, Update 2. Designed to simplify UNIX deployments on HP Integrity servers, the new OEs enable customers to reduce costs and accelerate time to solution for immediate out-of-the-box productivity.

The OEs are HP-tested and pre-integrated to ease software management from purchase to installation to updates. They deliver fully integrated UNIX virtualization and high availability features, as well as a full range of HP software, with the HP-UX 11i operating system, in a single, easy-to-manage package.

The four OE offerings, Base, Virtual Server, High Availability and Data Center, allow any size business to rapidly and efficiently integrate a complete UNIX solution into its Integrity server environment. As a result, customers avoid potential errors and achieve faster time to solution by simplifying the manual effort typically associated with installing a fully-functional UNIX environment. For example, with the Data Center OE, customers can install more than 150 different software components in just nine steps—compared to the 35 steps required for IBM AIX and 87 for Sun Solaris.

Very cool, anything we can do to make deployment and and management in the UNIX arena has to be a good thing, I’ll need to read up more.
