Scenario 2 – deploying applications 
The blade specific provisioning server provides a strategy/solution for rapidly deploying applications 
(Microsoft Windows Server 2003, BizTalk Server, SQL Server) on HP ProLiant BL c-Class servers using 
ProLiant Essentials Rapid Deployment Pack. By providing automated systems provisioning (a key 
component of the HP Adaptive Infrastructure strategy) for applications, customers are better equipped 
to easily, effectively, and efficiently conduct business without being prone to errors. Numerous types 
of errors can occur when humans are charged with the task of configuring and deploying enterprise 
business-critical applications if a consistent procedure is not used. Data-entry errors or simple lack of 
technical expertise for any particular setting or configuration item can bring that application to a halt. 
Many of these problems could be overcome by automating the installation and deployment procedure 
in a consistent process. Automation leads to faster time to deployment for applications with a 
minimum number of problems and provides consistency in the deployment and re-deployment of 
server applications.
