It's very reliable, efficient, and strong, and at the time that we used it, it was scalable so we were able to put as much CPU as I wanted up to 64.

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.

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.
