Performance That Meets Your Needs at Half the Price or It’s Free

Performance That Meets Your Needs at Half the Price or It’s Free

 

Make the move to HP Proliant DL980 from Oracle/Sun SPARC or IBM Power, UNIX servers as part of your next tech refresh and pay half the hardware acquisition price of these competitors’ UNIX systems.  We are so confident in the HP Proliant DL980’s price/performance that  if the performance of our system does not meet the requirements, we will provide upgraded and /or additional processors and chassis for free.

 

Blending business-critical and industry-standard design principles, the HP Proliant DL980 G7 Server with HP PREMA Architecture is an eight-socket, x86 server, designed with balanced scalability, self-healing resiliency, and breakthrough efficiencies for the largest and most demanding x86 enterprise-class workloads.

 

Simply provide our competitor’s UNIX configuration that you are considering, and we will recommend a DL980 with comparable performance at half the hardware acquisition price over that competitive UNIX system. 

 

SAVE IN 3 EASY STEPS:

 

1.     Work with CB Technologies to determine the HP Proliant DL980 configuration that is comparable to what you are considering for your alternative UNIX system from IBM to Oracle/Sun

The comparable configuration will be defined based on your alternative UNIX system and your application and workloads.  Pricing is based on typical manufacturer’s discounts and performance data available through public sources.

 

2.    Purchase the DL980 at the sizing and pricing provided by the DL980 Performance Offer

Optionally, work with CB Technologies to jointly refine the HP Proliant DL980 configuration to match the real-work performance required by your applications and workloads.

 

3.    Realize the performance you need and save on hardware acquisition, risk free

If within 90 days after invoice the performance does not meet the requirements, we will offer the following at no additional cost:

o   Feedback and guidance in support of your in-house system tuning to achieve the projected performance

o   Professional tuning from HP if our stated performance levels have not been met after your in-house tuning has been completed in accordance with our recommendations and suggestions

o   Additional or upgraded Intel Xeon processors and, if required, another DL980 system, if we determine that the stated level of performance used in our sizing has not been achieved after our professional tuning.

CB Technologies Named to 2010 Inc. 500/5000 List

Inc. Magazine Unveils Its Fourth Annual Exclusive List of

America’s Fastest-Growing Private Companies-the Inc. 5000

Carrillo Business Technologies, Inc. No. 4900 on the 2010 Inc. 5000

with Three-Year Sales Growth of 5%

NEW YORK, August 24, 2010Inc. magazine today ranked Carrillo Business Technologies, Inc. NO. 4900 on its fourth annual Inc. 5000, an exclusive ranking of the nation’s fastest-growing private companies. The list represents the most comprehensive look at the most important segment of the economy-America’s independent-minded entrepreneurs. Music website Pandora, convenience store chain 7-Eleven, Brooklyn Brewery, and Radio Flyer, maker of the iconic children’s red wagon, are among the prominent brands featured on this year’s list.

“The leaders of the companies on this year’s Inc. 5000 have figured out how to grow their businesses during the longest recession since the Great Depression,” said Inc. president Bob LaPointe. “The 2010 Inc. 5000 showcases a particularly hardy group of entrepreneurs.”

Carrillo Business Technologies, Inc. is an award winning consulting and IT services company based out of Los Angeles, California.  Founded in 2001, this small disadvantaged minority women-owned company has been named to the Inc. 5000, OCBJ’s “The List”, and is perennially named to the VAR 500.  The company’s vast resume includes 50+ combined years of supporting, planning, and integrating technology in support of the Department of Defense to Large Commercial enterprises. The company’s philanthropic efforts include and support carbon neutrality, the Hollygrove Foundation, Women for Women, and the Childrens Hospital of Orange County.

The 2010 Inc. 5000, unveiled today on Inc.com, serves as a unique illustration of the profound changes taking place in the U.S. economy. The Government Services sector showed the biggest gain in terms of the number of companies on the list, up 33 percent from last year to 335 companies. Government Services was also the second-fastest-growing sector in terms of median revenue growth, posting a 202 percent gain over the 2006-2009 measuring period. More than half of these companies are based in Maryland, Virginia, and Washington, D.C. The fastest-growing sector by median revenue growth was Real Estate, now just a tiny group of 38 young, small companies, which showed 231 percent median growth over the period. (There were 121 Real Estate firms on the inaugural Inc. 5000 in 2007.) Business Products & Services is the top industry by number of companies on the list (640) and total revenue ($80.7 billion), while Health is the biggest by total employment (287,726  jobs).

Despite the fact that most of this year’s measuring period of 2006-2009 took place during the latest recession, aggregate revenue among the companies on the list actually increased to $321.6 billion, up more than 50 percent from last year. The effects of the recession are seen, however, in the median three-year growth rate, which dropped to 96 percent from last year’s 126 percent. This year’s Inc. 5000 employ a record 1.4 million people, up from one million on last year’s list. With unemployment remaining stubbornly high, policymakers and business leaders will do well to look to the Inc. 5000 companies for fresh ideas on achieving growth and creating jobs.

Complete results of the Inc. 5000, including company profiles and an interactive database that can be sorted by industry, region, and other criteria, can be found on www.inc.com/5000.
