Innovation to help yousucceed in the next era ofcomputingRegardless of the size of your organization, youlikely face daunting storage challenges—in manycases, challenges substantially different from thosethat existed 10 or 20 years ago. You not only requireimmediate access to an ever-growing quantity of data,but you also need to support new demands placed onstorage by emerging developments like virtualizationand cloud computing. When paired with the realityof the shrinking IT budget, this all comes down to theneed to do more with less—to meet evolving demandswhile cutting capital and operating costs, and withoutsacrificing service levels.

Faced with this set of circumstances, it is critical to investin a storage infrastructure with the agility to respondto unpredictable workloads, the efficiency to reduceexpenses, and the simplicity to speed deployment ofnew applications. In short, you need storage that cansupport your business, both now and in the future.

and Microsoft® management tools, as well asHP Systems Insight Manager, providesa single pane ofglass for server and storage management.Server virtualization has dramatically reduced thecost of compute environments. Virtualized storageinfrastructure can similarlyimprove utilization ratesby 300 percent and reduce management costs by50 percent.1 For example, scale-out SAN architecturescan nondisruptively solve the performance,manageability, and capacity requirements faced invirtual servers deployments.

With data growth skyrocketing, IT departments arestruggling to keep up. Our focus on storage capacityoptimization enables you to do more with less.Technologies such as thin provisioning, deduplication,and data tiering enable you to reduce capacityrequirements by 95 percent in some cases and cut thecost of future storage purchases in half.2

Simplification is a key to reducing your capitalexpenditure (CAPEX) and operating expenditure(OPEX) budget. HP is leveraging its $50 billion USDsupply chain and leadership in industry-standardservers to lower the acquisition cost of new storage.

A commitment to platform convergence leveragesHP Networking and server businesses allows us tobuild unique capabilities into future storage solutiondisrupting the existing state of the storage marketplawhile still providing bulletproof availability andinvestment protection.

HP delivers the full value of convergence.

HP P6000 Thin Provisioning softwarePurchase only the storage capacity needed todayHP P6000 Thin Provisioning software provides the abto create a Vdisk, such that the application sees morecapacity available than is physically allocated by thearray. This provides an ideal solution to combat thechallenges of storage sizing and management. P6000EVA thin-provisioned Vdisks, once defined, automaticgrow over time, and only allocate additional physicaldisk space when there is a requirement for more stora

As Vdisks get provisioned based on requirements, Vdiutilization rates are exceptionally high. The combinedefficiency of a high utilization rate and on-demandprovisioning means that disk drive purchases can bedeferred, reducing CAPEX. Also, the OPEX associatewith power and cooling and floor space requirementscan be reduced.



The P6000 EVA continues to provide high performancethrough wide striping of data across the physical disksin a disk group. Together, thin provisioning and widestriping deliver an easy-to-manage, cost-effective, andhigh-performance solution.

Such just-in-time provisioning coupled with appropriatemonitoring capability means that a measurable and anaccessible amount of unused storage capacity is held inreserve. With Vdisks, managers know what they havein use and what is being held in reserve, and can plan

Additional HP 3PARsoftwareHP 3PAR Thin Provisioning softwareMakes organizations more agile and efficient byreducing upfront capacity reservations and allowingdisk capacity to be purchased only as neededDo you have storage pools that aren’t really efficientHP 3PAR Thin Provisioning software solves the probof inefficient capacity utilization by breaking thetraditional linkage between allocated and purchasedcapacity. Demand for thin provisioning solutionscombined with increased attention to data centerpower consumption has put pressure on vendorsto introduce thin provisioning solutions, but bolt-onimplementations can’t deliver the simplicity or theefficiency of thin provisioning.



With HP 3PAR Thin Provisioning software, capacity isdedicated and configured autonomically, just-in-time,and without active management. Rather than creatingseparate pools of storage, the software creates onepool from which capacity is dedicated only as datais actually written. And while other thin provisioningimplementations use coarse allocation units that canrange from 1 MB to 17 GB, HP 3PAR Thin Provisioninguses a fine-grained, 16 KB allocation unit to increasesystem efficiency.

HP 3PAR Thin Conversion softwareLeverages zero-detection capabilities within the HP 3PARGen3 ASIC to drive the conversion of inefficient, “fat”

volumes on legacy arrays to more efficient “thin” volumes on HP 3PAR Storage Systems What can I do to improve the capacity efficiency of mylegacy storage volumes without complex data migrationor professional services? HP 3PAR Thin Conversionsoftware leverages the zero-detection capabilitieswithin the HP 3PAR Gen3 ASIC to drive the conversionof inefficient, “fat” volumes on legacy arrays to moreefficient, higher utilization “thin” volumes on HP 3PARStorage Systems. This “thinning” of volumes enablesdata centers to meet “green IT” targets, reduce wastedspace, and increase utilization rates. Because thefat-to-thin conversion mechanism is built into arrayhardware, volume conversions take place inline, at wirespeeds, while preserving service levels, and withoutdisruption to production workloads.

With HP 3PAR Thin Conversion software, a technologyrefresh no longer requires a terabyte-for-terabytereplacement, but instead offers the opportunity to reducecapacity requirements almost by 50 percent or morewithout the need to invest in professional services.

HP 3PAR Thin Persistence softwareMeans that thin volumes on the HP 3PAR Storage Systemstay as lean and efficient as possible by leveraging theHP 3PAR Gen3 ASIC to reclaim unused space associated

with deleted data nondisruptively

What good are thin provisioning savings if they can’t bepreserved over time? HP 3PAR Thin Persistence softwaremeans that thin volumes on the HP 3PAR Storage Systemstay as lean and efficient as possible by leveraging theHP 3PAR Gen3 ASIC to reclaim unused space associatedwith deleted data—simply, quickly, and nondisruptively.

Writing and deleting large amounts of data can leaveunused space within thin volumes. Even lots of smallwrites and deletions can eventually reduce the efficiency

of thin volumes. This logical deletion of data withoutactually freeing up unused space creates a hiddenutilization penalty that can really add up over time.

HP 3PAR Thin Persistence software reclaims this unusedspace to increase capacity efficiency, keep costs down,

and help defer the purchase of additional capacity tohandle new data growth. HP 3PAR Thin Persistencesoftware also helps enterprises maintain sustainabilitytargets by keeping down data center power andcooling needs.
