Today we announced the Microsoft Data Warehouse appliance from HP called the HP Business Data Warehouse (BDW).\u00a0 <\/span>This is the third SQL Server appliance, following the releases earlier this year of the <\/span>HP Enterprise Data Warehouse<\/span><\/span><\/a> and the <\/span>HP Business Decision Appliance<\/span><\/span><\/a>. <\/p>\n The BDW appliance is 4U in size and architected, pre-tuned and pre-configured to run a data warehouse workload for solutions aimed at 5TB databases or less. \u00a0<\/span>And by leveraging new features in SQL Server 2008 R2, we were able to optimize the appliance deployment experience. From plugging in and powering up to a running SQL Server takes a little over 10 minutes! (Installation time will vary based on customer\u2019s environment). <\/p>\n
