Hewlett-Packard Co. on Monday unveiled a NonStop server that targets smaller companies in the healthcare, financial services and telecommunications industries.

The system includes hardware, operating system, software and database, officials with the Palo Alto, Calif., computer maker said. The server is powered by Intel Itanium 2 processors. Supported configurations include two to eight processors, four and eight gigabytes of memory, 1.3 GHz/3 MB cache and the ability to connect up to 32 terabytes of disk storage per system using internal disks.

The NonStop software suite provides fault tolerance/fault isolation, dynamic workload balancing, linear scalability, application virtualization and cluster programming transparency.

The NS1000 costs $85,000 per processor.
