We have a few other IT-infrastructure software products that I'd like to discuss today, but in somewhat less depth than HP OpenView. HP OpenMail provides the backbone for messaging in a mission-critical, high-availability environment. Most people think of messaging as just sending or receiving electronic mail. If it goes down, that's just inconvenient. But as people are taking their business processes to the Net, the messaging backbone becomes critical. This is the role HP OpenMail plays. Finally, on the right there, you see a couple of HP software products whose role is to make the infrastructure secure. Virtual Vault provides secure Internet access to core business functions and data. It has been used successfully worldwide by the banking industry. VerSecure is a comprehensive encryption solution that has just received U.S. government approval for export. It is the first strong encryption technology to achieve that status. MICROSOFT, IBM, Motorola and SAP have already endorsed this approach. Let me say a few words about our service and support capability, because it is key to enabling customers to build and manage an Extended Enterprise infrastructure. The goal of our Professional Services Organization is to help customers implement new technologies quickly, to transfer knowledge to their IT staff, and then through selective outsourcing to provide them with some flexibility in terms of their staffing levels.[qh]
這里,我想談一談我們的其他一些IT基礎(chǔ)結(jié)構(gòu)的軟件產(chǎn)品,但其深度不及惠普OpenView。首先,惠普為從事關(guān)鍵業(yè)務(wù)的高可用性環(huán)境提供了報(bào)文傳送的主要途徑。大多數(shù)人認(rèn)為,報(bào)文傳送只是發(fā)送或接收消息而已。如效率降低,也只是不方便罷了。但當(dāng)人們將業(yè)務(wù)過(guò)程帶入網(wǎng)絡(luò),報(bào)文傳送的主干作用就是至關(guān)重要的了。這就是惠普OpenMail所起的作用。最后,諸位可以看到,惠普的這些軟件產(chǎn)品是為了確保基礎(chǔ)結(jié)構(gòu)的安全。虛擬保險(xiǎn)箱(Virtual Vault)為核心業(yè)務(wù)功能和數(shù)據(jù)提供了安全的互聯(lián)網(wǎng)訪問(wèn)途徑。全世界的銀行業(yè)一直在使用這一軟件。VerSecure是一種綜合性安全加密方案,其剛剛獲得美國(guó)政府的批準(zhǔn)可供出口。這是目前率先獲準(zhǔn)的最好的安全加密技術(shù)。微軟、IBM、摩托羅拉和SAP已經(jīng)認(rèn)同了這一方式。現(xiàn)在讓我談?wù)勎覀兊姆?wù)和支持情況,因?yàn)檫@是使客戶構(gòu)建并管理一個(gè)擴(kuò)展型企業(yè)基礎(chǔ)結(jié)構(gòu)的關(guān)鍵。我們的專業(yè)服務(wù)機(jī)構(gòu)的目標(biāo)是幫助客戶迅速地應(yīng)用新型技術(shù),將知識(shí)傳授給他們的IT員工,并通過(guò)選擇性外包,為其提供人員方面的某些靈活性。[qh]
