One of the reasons our Unix systems are ideally suited to power the Extended Enterprise is our ability to guarantee 99.95 percent up time. We're the only company in the industry that can make that guarantee. Delivering 99.95-percent uptime translates to just four hours of unplanned downtime a year. The next best offer in the industry — 99.5 percent of time — equals 44 hours of unplanned downtime a year. In the past year, we have accelerated our product- development efforts. The result is a Unix roadmap that we believe will keep us in a clear position of leadership. The V2250 systems we introduced earlier this month are based on our new, 240 MHz PA-RISC processor. They are the world's fastest single-processor Unix servers — ideally suited for mission-critical and technical applications. We expect to double high-end single-system performance each year. That means that today's high-end of a V-Class system will be the midrange of our family by the year 2000.Furthermore, we plan to take today's 99.95 percent availability guarantee and push that up to 99.999 — 5 minutes of unplanned downtime per year — by the year 2000.We call this our "5nines:5minutes" vision, and we have succeeded in getting two powerful industry leaders — Cisco and Oracle 1 — to embrace this vision and work with us to achieve it.
我们的UNIX系统之所以特别适合扩展型企业，原因之一是我们能确保99.95%的开机率。我们是业界唯一可做此保证的公司。开机正常运行时间多达99.95%，意味着一年的意外停机时间仅为四个小时。而业内仅次于我们的最佳开机率为99.5%，相当于每年的意外停机时间为44小时。去年，我们加大了产品开发的力度。其结果是我们制定了UNIX开发蓝图，我们认为这将使我们明显地处于领先的地位。本月早些时候我们推出了基于新型的240 MHz PA-RISC处理器的V2250系统。它们是目前世界上最快的单处理器UNIX服务:器，适用于关键业务和技术应用程序。我们希望，每年都能将高端单一系统的性能翻一番。这意味着，到2000年，今天的V系列系统高端将成为我们系列中的中档产品。其次，我们计划，到 2000年，将现在的99.95%的开机率提髙到99.999%——达到每年意外停机仅有五分钟。我们称 其为“五个9:五分钟”目标，我们已与业界两个颇具实力的领先者——思科公司和甲骨文公司达成共识，为实现这一目标而共同奋斗。
