3PAR Storage: Tailor-Made for Virtual Infrastructures
Virtual infrastructure users are on the verge of a breakthrough. Up until now some major storage challenges have stood in the way of enterprises virtualising their critical production applications. As Taneja Group’s recent survey on virtual server storage practices revealed, users are facing, among other problems, some significant storage capacity, performance, provisioning and management issues, which taken together, considerably drive up the cost and risk of virtual server deployments.

HP 3PAR Utility Storage - Benefits Summary - Next-Generation Storage for Virtual and Cloud Data Centers
The growth and use of information has outpaced traditional storage technologies whose fundamental designs are in some cases now decades old. In many cases, the limited scalability and functionality of these outdated storage platforms have forced organisations to cobble together storage infrastructures with multiple layers of interlocking hardware and software.
Thin provisioning on the HP P6000 EVA
One of the realities of today’s world is the ever growing data storage requirements, challenging the storage administrators to size and grow the storage space required by various applications. Administrators who have to allocate storage to their applications typically end up over provisioning their storage to avoid application downtimes and administrative overhead of re-provisioning storage. This over provisioning of storage leads to higher capital expense (more disks) and also higher operating expense (more floor space, power and cooling cost).
HP P6000 Enterprise Virtual Array performance
The HP P6000 Enterprise Virtual Array (EVA) product family offers high-performance, high-capacity, and high-availability storage solutions to midsize and enterprise-size customers to help them reduce their IT costs and complexity. The EVA family provides virtualized storage, enabling capacity pooling, simplified management, automatic performance load balancing, dynamic configuration, and reconfiguration. Continuing to build on this success are the HP P6300 EVA and P6500 EVA models.
Energy efficient P6000 EVA Family
There is tremendous focus on the financial aspects of power and cooling costs. And there is a growing concern about the effects of energy usage on the global environment. The new P6000 Enterprise Virtual Array (EVA) family addresses these concerns by providing improved energy efficiency compared to the previous generations of EVAs. This white paper explains the new power saving features of the P6000 EVAs and provides quantification of the possible power savings.
HP VirtualSystem VS3 for VMware - Simple, agile, efficient enterprise virtualisation
In recent years, organisations around the world have adopted virtualisation to improve business continuity, enable IT flexibility and maximise the return on IT investments. While offering some very impressive benefits, firstgeneration virtualisation solutions were often one-off designs that increased IT complexity, limited scalability, provided insufficient security and created siloed management—which led to some significant business impacts.
HP VirtualSystem VS2 for VMware - Accelerated path to a virtualised enterprise
In recent years, organizations around the world have adopted virtualisation to improve business continuity, enable IT flexibility and maximise the return on IT investments. While offering some very impressive benefits, firstgeneration virtualisation solutions were often one-off designs that increased IT complexity, limited scalability, provided insufficient security and created siloed management—which led to some significant business impacts.
HP VirtualSystem VS1 for VMware - Virtualised environments made faster and easier 370433
Over the years, virtualisation has been proven to reduce costs, increase flexibility and improve business continuity—these are some of the key benefits of virtualisation. But first-generation virtualisation solutions were often custom designs that constrained scalability, increased IT complexity, limited security and siloed management— which led to significant business impacts.
