HP Odyssey to bring us next generation platforms

http://www.hp.com/hpinfo/newsroom/press/2011/111122xb.html

HP today announced “Odyssey,” a project to redefine the future of mission-critical computing with a development roadmap that will unify UNIX® and x86 server architectures to bring industry-leading availability, increased performance and uncompromising client choice to a single platform.

Organizations are challenged with increasingly stringent service-level agreements for their most demanding workloads, along with the pressure to be more efficient with their IT budgets and resources. They need the availability and resilience of UNIX-based platforms along with the familiarity and cost-efficiency of industry-standard platforms.

Using advanced technology across a common, modular HP BladeSystem architecture, HP is developing platforms to enable clients to choose the best environment aligned to their organizations’ needs without compromise, helping ensure investment protection for the long term.

Very cool, I wonder what range of technologies we will see as a result of this announcement going forward and if it will be mentioned at HP Discover 2011 this week. We’ll have to see, I’m off to read more.
