About HyperFabric
About HyperFabric
HyperFabric is an HP high-speed, packet-based interconnect for node-to-node communications. HyperFabric provides higher speed, lower network latency and uses less CPU than other industry standard protocols (for example, Fibre Channel and Gigabit Ethernet). Instead of using a traditional bus-based technology, HyperFabric is built around switched fabric architecture, providing the bandwidth necessary for high speed data transfer. This clustering solution delivers the performance, scalability, and high availability required by the following:
•Parallel Database Clusters
—Oracle 9i Real Application Clusters (RAC)
—Oracle 8i Parallel Servers (OPS)
•Parallel Computing Clusters
•Client/Server Architecture Interconnects (for example, SAP)
•Multi-Server Batch Applications (for example, SAS Systems)
•Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP)
•Technical Computing Clusters
•HP Message Passing Interface (MPI) based applications
•OpenView Data Protector (earlier known as Omniback)
•Network Backup
•Data Center Network Consolidation
•E-services
