PALO ALTO, Calif. -- HP (NYSE: HPQ) today announced that the Dallas Cowboys have deployed HP Converged Infrastructure technology in the state-of-the-art data center that powers Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas.

The world-famous Cowboys Stadium hosts the Dallas Cowboys Football Club as well as high-profile concerts, conferences and sporting events, including the annual AT&T Cotton Bowl Classic, the upcoming Super Bowl XLV on Feb. 6 and the 2014 NCAA Men's Basketball Final Four.

With events drawing crowds as large as 100,000 attendees, Cowboys Stadium requires a high-performing and reliable system.
