Hewlett-Packard (HP) has begun to bring Intel Itanium processor-based servers to market and plans to transition its 64-bit server products to this processor over time. HP's Business Critical Systems group has developed a transition strategy with the goal of allowing customers to decide when they are ready to move to Itanium processor-based servers. Software plays a key role in HP's strategy. HP-UX 11i will continue to be HP's flagship Unix product. In the future, it will incorporate selected features of Tru64 UNIX. OpenVMS will be fully ported to Itanium processor-based HP server systems. Customers will be able to run 64-bit versions of Linux and Microsoft Windows on Itanium processor-based enterprise servers, bringing new levels of system performance to those operating system environments.
