Résumé

Leveraging the revolutionary power of the Itanium processor family.
The Itanium processor family has come of age, giving high-end server and workstation buyers the powerful price/performance benefits that PC buyers have long taken for granted. In Itanium Rising, two leaders of HP's Itanium processor initiative present the first systematic guide for business and technical professionals who are implementing or evaluating Itanium technologies. Jim Carlson and Jerry Huck show why Itanium is so revolutionary—and offer a complete blueprint for translating its immense power into true competitive advantage.

Why Itanium is uniquely well designed for today's high-bandwidth, networked applications
Itanium as the foundation for an "always on," services-based Internet infrastructure
Using Itanium to gain a unified "enterprise view" of the business
Architecting IT systems and infrastructure to take full advantage of Itanium technology
New opportunities and reasons to move away from the "desktop model" of computing
The future of the Itanium processor family—and the technological changes it will trigger

Whether you're an IT or business leader, developer, or technical computing specialist, Itanium will help you drive down costs, drive up productivity, and accomplish things that were simply impossible before. Itanium Rising will show you how.
