Innovation to help you succeed in the next era of computing

Regardless of the size of your organization, you likely face daunting storage challengesin many cases, challenges substantially different from those that existed 10 or 20 years ago. You not only require immediate access to an ever-growing quantity of data, but you also need to support new demands placed on storage by emerging developments like virtualization and cloud computing. When paired with the reality of the shrinking IT budget, this all comes down to the need to do more with lessto meet evolving demands while cutting capital and operating costs, and without sacrificing service levels. Faced with this set of circumstances, it is critical to invest in a storage infrastructure with the agility to respond to unpredictable workloads, the efficiency to reduce expenses, and the simplicity to speed deployment of new applications. In short, you need storage that can support your business, both now and in the future. To address this need, HP is transforming storage with a product portfolio that reduces boundaries, both within traditional data centers (with their established architectures) and in next-generation data centers (where virtualization and cloud computing models are being implemented). For traditional data center environments, HP is introducing new hardware, software, and services innovations into our established product portfolio. These new products and features are designed to improve the efficiency and agility of traditional storage environments and help customers remove the boundaries between where they are today and where they want to be in the future. The HP Converged Storage portfolio of storage systems developed for virtual and cloud environments includes: HP P4000 G2 LeftHand SAN Solutions: Reducing SAN costs with an all-inclusive, enterprise feature set for physical and virtual environments. Eliminates risk through data high availability. Increases business agility and scales SAN disruption free. HP P10000 3PAR and, T-Class and F-Class Storage Systems: Next-generation, federated tier 1 storage designed to drive agility and efficiency in enterprise-class virtual and cloud data centers and to deliver IT as a Service. The HP portfolio of storage systems for enhancing traditional data center environments includes: HP P2000 G3 Modular Smart Arrays (MSA): Enabling low-cost, scalable, high-performance storage consolidation through SANs to meet entry-level to midrange requirements. HP P6000 Enterprise Virtual Array (EVA) Systems: Delivering efficient virtualized storage for the enterprise customer, enabling storage consolidation with increased capacity utilization and simple management. 4

HP P9000 XP Disk Array Family: Providing bulletproof storage for the mission-critical converged infrastructure, where constant access to data is required, even in the event of a disaster. To address next-generation data center needs and trends, HP offers a portfolio of converged storage products designed for the data center of the future, which relies heavily on virtualization and cloud computing. These products leverage standard platforms, federated scale-out software, and converged management to remove the boundaries between servers, storage, and networking. But your business challenges extend beyond those met by disk storage systems. HP storage products and solutions can also help you tackle everything from basic business protection to complex data center transformation. These offerings include everything from disk and tape backup systems to scalable NAS and software to manage the entire infrastructure. We also offer HP Converged Systems, turnkey solutions that integrate hardware, software, and services into a unified package to help you accelerate data center transformation. HP is the storage vendor capable of meeting all of your storage needsfrom entry-level modular arrays to utility storage for cloud computing and everything in between. With our comprehensive product portfolio, you get storage designed for a converged data center where server, storage, and networking resources are integrated by design. Storage matters now more than ever, and the demands on that storage infrastructure will only continue to grow. Over the next several pages, youll see how HP designs storage that addresses your unique needs and requirements, and promotes outcomes that matter to your businessboth now and in the future. HP Converged Infrastructurefueling data center transformation Looking beyond just storage, HP Converged Infrastructure is a strategy and portfolio of products that enable your business to unleash the potential of your infrastructure. Based on our breakthrough architectural framework, HP Converged Infrastructure CI enables you to overcome IT sprawl to deliver outcomes that matter: Simplified management and implementation Increased performance, utilization, and availability Economies of open standards and connectivity For your business, this means: Faster time to revenue Increased agility Lower risk Lower cost of operations Why should you choose HP storage for your application and converged infrastructure deployments? Storage exists to support your critical business applications. HP is focused on application-integrated storage to speed deployment and simplify management. For example, integration with VMware

and Microsoft management tools, as well as HP Systems Insight Manager, provides a single pane of glass for server and storage management. Server virtualization has dramatically reduced the cost of compute environments. Virtualized storage infrastructure can similarly improve utilization rates by 300 percent and reduce management costs by 50 percent.1 For example, scale-out SAN architectures can nondisruptively solve the performance, manageability, and capacity requirements faced in virtual servers deployments. With data growth skyrocketing, IT departments are struggling to keep up. Our focus on storage capacity optimization enables you to do more with less. Technologies such as thin provisioning, deduplication, and data tiering enable you to reduce capacity requirements by 95 percent in some cases and cut the cost of future storage purchases in half.2

Simplification is a key to reducing your capital expenditure (CAPEX) and operating expenditure (OPEX) budget. HP is leveraging its $50 billion USD supply chain and leadership in industry-standard servers to lower the acquisition cost of new storage. A commitment to platform convergence leverages HP Networking and server businesses allows us to build unique capabilities into future storage solutions disrupting the existing state of the storage marketplace while still providing bulletproof availability and investment protection. HP delivers the full value of convergence.
