Historically companies developed their core business services such as human resources, accounting and billing on mainframes, Sun systems or Unisys boxes. Many of these applications are not distributed and run on one large centralised system - they are "monolithic". There is often no clear way to split out these applications so a migration to Intel architecture requires the use of a very high specification server.

The SRPL8 system features the Profusion® chipset supporting up to eight Intel® Pentium® III Xeon™ processors supporting 700 MHz and 900 MHz speeds, 32 GB of ECC memory, 64-bit 100 MHz PCI-X and 33 MHz PCI, PCI Hot-Plug functionality and advanced System Management. It delivers balanced performance, offering both processor scalability and high I/O throughput. All this processing power is packaged in a space-efficient rack mount form factor to meet the needs of the enterprise computing market segment.
