Informationization: The rapid development of power HP VSE to help a city integrated information management system

"Gold-Finance Project" is a "gold", "Gold Guan", "gold tax" and other "gold" word Series project after another large "golden" word project. The construction of the "Financial Management Information Integration System" of a city is to follow the general requirements of the construction of the Superior "Golden Wealth Project", combine the actual situation of the financial work in the city, and use the advanced information technology to establish the comprehensive management color system. The system will fully support the financial business of the city, realize the overall information of financial business, in order to promote fiscal reform, improve work efficiency and improve the management level.

User Requirements

Over the years, the city Finance Bureau of Information application, promotion work has achieved significant results in the financial application system construction has made greater progress, from the initial administrative costs and confiscated income bank collection, departmental budgeting, such as the local application system began, has been building applications including centralized accounting, office automation, Financial portal system, budget indicators, and many other subsystems.

However, with the gradual deepening of the reform of the financial system and the increase of the demand for the integration application, the various application subsystems need to be solved in the aspects of planning uniformity, application integration, data sharing, system security and business extensibility. has affected the financial informationization and the financial management level further enhancement. These problems are very common in the financial management, but also at all levels of financial system decentralized, passive information construction facing the core issues.

Implementation of the programme

In order to ensure the construction of the city's financial management Information Integration System, the municipal Finance bureau has set up the leading group of system construction, which is responsible for the decision-making, supervision and management of the integrated system of financial management information. Because the system will serve the entire financial management, and will be connected with the relevant departments, agencies and budget units, in order to make the financial management Information Integration System as complete as possible, and have a strong security, reliability, compatibility, scalability and easy to operate and so on. Therefore, customers need a senior, long-term, robust partner, not only to help build a strong hardware platform, but also to provide a high level of security and reliable technical support.

Based on the high standard requirement of the integration System of financial management information, the client chooses carefully, and finally selects to cooperate with HP to build the system hardware platform. The project hardware configuration scenario incorporates the HP-UX operating system and the HP VSE virtualization solution. That is, 2 high-end Intel Itanium 2 processor-based hp integn y rx7640 Kinetic server as a system host, each rx7640 through VSE virtualization technology into two partitions (VPAR), a total of four partitions. One partition on each server acts as an Oracle database server, using Serviceguard to make up a two-machine cluster. Another partition on the server is for the BEA middleware application server.

Storage-system configuration, including the original HP StorageWorks EVA 4000 disk storage array, Fibre Channel switches, and other related servers. Each server is configured with two fibre storage cards connected to two fibre switches, and the EVA disk array's Fibre Channel ports are connected to two sets of fibre switches, which constitute a highly reliable link structure that enables link load balancing and error recovery. At the same time, a dedicated HP ProLiant ML570 server is used as the backup master server for the backup system, and the tape library employs the HP MSL6030 Ultrium960 Fibre tape library.

The city's financial management Information Integration System adopts HP VSE solution, which realizes the isolation of the business function (database and application running on the independent operating system), and fully utilizes the server resources. In the case of failure, through the automatic reallocation of resources, can ensure that two different applications can provide normal service.

Informatization Take-off

In the Management Information Integration System, HP based on the actual needs of customers, put forward two advanced infrastructure system combined with the construction needs for the Finance Bureau to choose and reference. Both programs take full advantage of the latest developments in computer Science and network technology---HP VSE, at the same time, taking into account the advanced nature of the system, high reliability, high availability, flexible expansion of the system, openness and high manageability, and other principles, according to user needs of the unity, integration, sharing, security, Extensibility provides a complete and advanced solution.

The advantage of HP VSE is that it provides 4 very complete partitioning methods, such as hardware partitions, virtual partitions, virtual machines, and resource partitions, which can be superimposed and provide a better mix of isolation and flexibility when deploying multiple partitions on a single server. At the same time, HP VSE, designed to support multiple operating systems, can accelerate the deployment of enterprise-class software, and some virtualization projects can be implemented even more than half the time and can complement the HP integrity Kinetic server based on the Intel Itanium 2 processor, Increases the ability to handle complex loads by more than 30%.

Based on the Intel 2 processor HP Integrity rx7640 is a and HP proprietary Super Extensible processor chipset sx1000 set up a 16-way high-performance itanium® server, supporting the multiple operating system platform, the application is very wide, users are free to choose, whether in HP-UX, Linux, OpenVMS, or running these applications on Windows can meet demanding business needs. With HP VSE Solutions, these operating systems can be run simultaneously within the same server, not only to help enterprises deploy the right solution to provide more flexibility, but also to consolidate multiple systems into an HP Integrity Rx 7640 Kinetic server, reducing costs. In addition, the application will be well protected because the HP Integrity rx7640 Server Design also employs leading high-availability technologies that really eliminates the architectural and application pitfalls.

Management integration and storage consolidation put a higher demand on storage management, and HP Storage Essentials uses the user's IT department and service provider to achieve an economical and efficient storage infrastructure that brings many benefits to enterprise business, such as reducing operational and investment costs, meeting service level requirements, Improve business and it relevance, availability and performance optimization, and enhance data security.

Technology drives Development

Customer related personnel said: "The completion of the project in the region's" Golden Wealth Project "Construction has the significance of the indicators, its implementation not only marked the city" Gold Finance Project "into a new stage of development, which is the first time in the financial system in the region through the introduction of" Integrated Finance " The management thought and the Advanced Platform Information technology application to promote "The Gold Finance Project" the thorough development. The construction of financial integration information Management system will promote the city's financial management more scientific, standardized, transparent, integrated, improve the efficiency and management of financial funds, in order to establish and improve the city's modern public finance management system play an important role.

HP said that through close cooperation with customers, it can provide a strong platform for building the first high standard financial management information Integration System in the region, and will lay a good foundation for the long-term friendly and cooperative relations. With advanced technology and excellent support services and years of successful experience in government agencies, HP will through the trust and cooperation between the two sides, the system project is implemented smoothly, thus providing a healthy, safe and highly available business operation environment for the customer's informatization business, and further establishing long-term strategic friendly cooperative relations.
