AlphaServer 4000 Virtualization
The AlphaServer
4000 was one of the more powerful 2-CPU Alpha computers, destined
to deliver server capabilities at the departmental level. Powered
by the second generation Alpha processors (EV5) it was an
important engine in the company IT infrastructure.
Given their age and lack of hardware maintenance options these systems need to be replaced by modern equipment to protect the software they are currently running.
Trading up to a more modern Alpha or Integrity system is not a viable option for AlphaServer 4000 installations, due to the fact they are running old software versions. Alpha Emulation is therefore a better alternative.
vtAlpha allows you to move the AlphaServer 4000 software to a modern Intel or AMD based system (X86) by changing the hardware interface of that new host into something that resembles the original AlphaServer 4000.
To run your Alpha software without changes, simply copy the contents of your Alpha disks to the virtual Alpha system.
