HPE Integrity NonStop
Because your customers never wait
HPE NonStop systems are designed from the ground up for mission-critical environments that demand continuous business and 100% fault tolerance. NonStop eliminates the risk of downtime while meeting large-scale business needs, online transaction processing, and database requirements. The NonStop software environment is now available for use in private clouds.
From banking to online shopping to cell phone communications, many everyday digital consumer interactions rely on always-on, always adapting HPE NonStop products and solutions. NonStop offers a unique set of ultra-robust systems that ensure 24x7 availability, unrivaled data integrity, and virtually unlimited scalability—ideal for demanding, transaction-processing-intensive applications that are mission-critical to your business.
The always-on operating system
The HPE NonStop operating system (OS) is unique. It delivers fault tolerance through a shared-nothing parallel processing architecture with multiple levels of error detection. Fault isolation and workload takeover capabilities provide application and database availability on both a local and global scale. As a result, HPE NonStop has unparalleled ability to detect, isolate, and recover from hardware and software failures without affecting critical applications and their users. The NonStop OS has been protecting mission-critical processes for over 40 years.
Now you can run mission-critical NonStop solutions in your private cloud and get the operational flexibility and agility offered by cloud technologies. HPE NonStop brings mission-critical availability to cloud-based applications and aligns with your enterprise cloud strategy. HPE Virtualized NonStop—deployed and managed through standard VMware services—can be built on your choice of infrastructure and deployed in your enterprise private cloud. You can run applications built for the HPE NonStop X systems, without any modification, in your private cloud.
