Robust security layers have supported mission-critical banking and protected sensitive data
Where I have not really enjoyed is the flexibility of doing things. You are just in a straitjacket with what they give you. The flexibility of doing things is limited compared to other platforms. The backup and restore features on that module were a bit old. I couldn't create a snapshot and provision a server in minutes. The VM features that I can use now easily were not that easy with HPE Integrity and were not even available for us. I had a lot of interaction with HPE Integrity and wanted to move to a different platform for a different experience. I did not see any products matching the Dell PowerFlex environment in terms of server capabilities when it comes to HPE Integrity. We are now using Oracle products and Oracle Data Guard. Oracle on HPE Integrity was a bit more difficult because you have to get separate patches, separate tunables, and separate kernel settings for HPE Integrity. Everything was so proprietary on HPE Integrity, making it difficult to have one solution. The Dell Linux environment with Oracle Linux OS now will be much easier.

We're able to set-up multiple VLANs in it.
Hyper V was the best option in case of server fail-over & Storage option was the best with the VD pools assigned to the server modules We have improved a lot, and our customers are very satisfied with the product. We're able to set-up multiple VLANs in it. I think that Intel shouldn't have…

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"This is a reliable server, and many applications are integrated there."
"HPE Integrity is a reliable solution, but you'll need to refurbish the hardware because it's approaching the end of sale."
"As a summary, I would say it's been the best high availability platform that HP has produced, at least that we have been able to use and forward to our customers with the highest service level availability."
"Except running Oracle on Integrity servers, its ROI is well justified in customer environments."
"When it comes to high-fault tolerance, HPE Integrity is very good, and we have had very good experience with the integrity of the servers for mission-critical functions and high-fault tolerance."
"The stability is pretty good."
"The Integrity series combined with the software layer presents an excellent Mission Critical landscape that brings simplicity in a complex landscape to the foreground."
"The Integrity is the most reliable server that I have."
"We have improved a lot, and our customers are very satisfied with the product."
"The MFSYS25 is a relatively cheap blade system with a built in "mini" SAN."
 

Cons

"Since Intel featured this product as a mainframe class, it should perform closer to a mainframe."
"HPE Integrity needs improvement in terms of pricing for scalability."
"It is an old technology, so there is not much growth that we can do on it now."
"I would like to see a GUI interface to manage resources and deploy new servers."
"We're moving away from Integrity as it's more pricey than the Intels."
"With the announcement last year from Hewlett-Packard Enterprise that they are no longer supporting Itanium 2 processors, which means HP-UX is going to die soon in a couple of years."
"The manageability must be improved."
"I don't know if Integrity will survive too much because if the Itanium processors are not going to be supportive anymore, I think in the midterm (4 or 5 years), Integrity's going to be replaced by another product line."
"The Intel Switches give very poor performance when mixed with anything else."
"There is one regular error which irritates me during production hours. It continually gives us COMPONENT UNFIT ERROR."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is the best."
"There is no license required to use HPE Integrity."
"The price is not very expensive."
"HPE Integrity's pricing could be better."
"Price-wise, the solution is very expensive."
