The document discusses HP Moonshot, a new server architecture from Hewlett-Packard. It is described as the world's first software-defined server, which uses dense cartridge-based servers in a single chassis for increased efficiency. The Moonshot system is said to provide up to 77% lower costs, 80% less space, 97% less complexity, and 89% less energy compared to traditional servers. It allows for flexible deployment of workloads on optimized cartridges. HP Cloud OS software is also introduced to simplify cloud service delivery on the Moonshot platform.
