Reasons behind the IPF migrationReasons behind the IPF migration Business planning for the fiscal 2001 year precipitated a
competitive analysis EV7 Marvel systems were clearly competitive industry
leading products EV8 would be competitive but differentiation compared to
previous products would be less Investment to execute flawlessly would be significant and
resource availability added great risk Conclusion of the evaluation team was that we need a
microprocessor partner (Intel IPF) Executive review and analysis lead to same conclusions
and a collaboration with Intel was pursued.
What does this mean?What does this mean? Systems that previously were all internal Compaq
Intellectual property contain Intel’s IP. Stricter control on information dissemination is required Software comes from 4 major sources:
– OpenVMS– Tru64 Unix– Windows– Linux
Protection of external IP prevents previous levels of detail without NDA’s for both Compaq and the external partners

ISV PortingISV PortingWorking jointly with IntelWorking jointly with Intel Engaging top-tier partners early to:
– Identify their requirements– Get input on White Papers and other tools to
assist ISVs in porting – Develop joint plans with the ISVs for early
adoption with timelines and commitments– Establish a high level engagement model and
implementation plan to move forward rapidly
Primary Objective Develop a full portfolio of partners to support
the top Solutions for our customers
Near term Deliverables White Papers and other tools to guide ISV porting
efforts Compaq technical resources to work on site with key
ISVs Early IPF seed units for key partners Joint marketing & migration plans with key ISVs
ISV Program – Moving Forward
The Strength of Compaq Enterprise The Strength of Compaq Enterprise Systems Continues! Systems Continues!
Performance– Coupling the Itanium microprocessor with Compaq systems
architecture, storage architecture, devices and other infrastructure tools and products, gives our customers the best price/performance in enterprise computing.
Scalability– Large, scalable system engineering of Compaq will continue to
give customers the best reliability, scalability, availability and security
Availability– Availability and ease-of-manage provided through our OpenVMS
and Tru64 UNIX operating systems will continue to provide the best RAS in the industry.
