Hewlett-Packard 3PAR utility storage

Thursday, 10 March, 2011


HP has announced the integration of 3PAR utility storage to simplify scalable cloud computing and has introduced storage solutions for virtualisation and data deduplication.

To automate and simplify the provisioning of multitenant storage for the cloud, 3PAR utility storage can now be fully managed as part of CloudSystem that builds and delivers services across private, public and hybrid cloud environments. This is claimed to enable users to reduce cloud application deployment time from days to minutes, improve operational efficiency of storage management and cut storage costs.

To provide clients with secure, multitenant block-and-file storage for both structured and unstructured data in the cloud, the X9300 network storage gateway, built on IBRIX technology, can be used with 3PAR storage systems. Combining the thin-storage capabilities of 3PAR utility storage with the tiering and data-migration capabilities of the X9300 network storage system can reduce capacity requirements by a claimed 50%.

The P4800 G2 SAN, built inside an BladeSystem c7000 enclosure, eliminates the need for external storage networking. It runs SAN/IQ 9.0 software with enhanced support for VMware vStorage API for array integration (VAAI). This accelerates VMware functions such as cloning while cutting the load on VMware ESX servers, allowing clients to increase the density of virtual machines per storage unit.

Featuring StoreOnce deduplication technology, the D2D4324 backup system enables users to back up as much as 1.4 petabytes of data with only 96 terabytes of raw disk capacity.

The E5000 messaging system for Microsoft Exchange Server 2010 integrates servers, storage, operating system software and Exchange 2010 configuration wizards into a single, converged solution, speeding deployment.
