HP and Altiris have a unique alliance that extends beyond sales and
marketing to include joint development and technology sharing that
spans HP Client, Server, OpenView, and Services groups to provide
best-of-breed solutions for HP partners and customers.
Starting in 1999, Compaq personal systems group and Altiris entered
into an alliance to combine the strength of Compaq as a pioneer in PC
hardware and manageability with the strength of Altiris' PC
deployment and migration capabilities. The relationship expanded
into a strategic alliance with the introduction of comprehensive
cost-reducing IT lifecycle management solutions including the jointly
developed HP Client Manager, which provides best-of-breed
hardware management for HP PCs.
Building upon the success of the personal systems group, in 2001 the
industry standard servers group introduced the ProLiant Essentials
Rapid Deployment Pack, an OEM version of Altiris Deployment
Solution combined with HP's SmartStart Toolkit. HP utilizes this
solution for provisioning ProLiant servers (including blade servers) as
well as Blade PCs, a core component of HP's Consolidated Client
Infrastructure.
