IMHO ,
HP's XP256 or XP512 is very good alternative . I have
been using it for almost 1 and half years and I found
it very good. Although , I have to do everything from
scratch since HP doesn't have any 'best practices' in
it yet ( actually we are the first to purchase it in
east coast and I ended up doing a lot of research on
it
) Now having finally tuned almost all the issues ,
I have OLTP with 300 ms response time restriction
running on it with > 400 TPM rate along with 500 Gigs
plus DW .
It has all the ( Almost ) features of EMC like BCV etc
. BUt down side it I think it is little pricy (
Little..? What an understatement !!)
Hope this helps
Cheers ,
RS
