What does the "i" in 11i stand for?

[Randy_9]

question asked by user, I don't know the answer? Thanks.

[Patrick Wallek]

Supposedly it stands for "internet". It's a marketing gimmick, kind of like Oracle 8i, 9i, 10g, whatever.

Hi Randy,

HP has introduced HP-UX 11i with a new focus on the "Internet-centric" world. So "i" stands for Internet, just a marketing gimmick

Yes - it was Internet:

http://www.faqs.org/faqs/hp/hpux-faq/

"HP-UX 11.11 and later is marketed as "HP-UX 11i." The "i" stands for
"Internet" and is meant to convey that the OS is Internet-ready. Here
are the mappings from 11i versions to HP-UX versions as reported by
uname"

hi randy,

i guess it was inline with all the other products that were coming out with the "i" tag these times - meaning Internet.

oracle 8 becoming oracle 8i
forms 6 becoming forms 6i
ibook
etc

I guess the trend now is "g" for grid

kind regards

hi randy,

i is for internet as others have said.

this was because of the inclusion of all the appache and java apps and was for marketing the 9000's as good webservers

Yeah .. it's internet and hence the continued use of it: 11i 11iv2 11iv3 to signify 11.11, 11.22, 11.23 etc.

It's a relic left over from Carly.
