Migrate applications to Linux in a structured, cost-effective way.

If your computing environment would benefit from a stable, open-source operating system, the time may be right for you to consider migrating to the Linux platform. Such a move could well be the right solution for a variety of application environments, including Web and infrastructure services, e-commerce application development and digital content creation.

An acknowledged leader in the open-source community, HP has made a commitment to Linux as a strategic operating system. We have the depth and breadth of experience needed to develop end-to-end Linux solutions and to deliver them to meet your specific requirements - starting with a suite of porting and migration services to move your code into the latest Linux environment.

Managing a smooth migration, built on structured methodology

As part of our Software Consulting & Development Services, we have designed a structured, step-wise migration methodology that migrates your applications to Linux smoothly, quickly and cost effectively. HP Services professionals tune these applications for optimal performance and complete the process with training and the transfer of critical operational knowledge to your staff.

Our approach proceeds along a phased path built on industry best practices:

  • Planning and detailed assessment
  • Tools for development and customisation
  • Test migration
  • Application migration
  • Acceptance
  • Installation, warranty and product support

We have learned that adherence to a rigorous process significantly reduces the risks inherent in a complex migration. The end result of your HP-managed migration is an environment that fully optimises your computing resources and offers a clear roadmap to the future.

Experience works in your favour.

HP Services professionals have extensive experience managing application migration projects, involving millions of lines of code. In fact, HP is one of few organisations to have reached Level 5 of the Capability Maturity Model assessment offered by Carnegie Mellon Software Engineering Institute, a leading authority on software engineering best practices.

When you work with HP, you are utilising the world's largest OS development environment. Our operational and support experience is repeatable, creating efficiencies that lower costs.

Furthermore, if you choose to outsource all or part of your Linux porting and migration, we have more than 1,400 software engineers available onsite and offshore to deliver complete services. We can readily customise the workforce to match application and operating system experience to your unique needs.
