HP StorageWorks and HP servers : Putting information to work

1. HP StorageWorks and HP servers : Putting information to work

2. Understanding our IT business challenges • To be successful, we must ensure that information is highly available, easily accessible, and totally secure. Moreover, we must be able to manage our storage infrastructure efficiently and cost-effectively. The possibility of catastrophic events coupled with an ever-growing volume of data underline the importance of having centrally managed and transparently scalable storage systems.

3. Toughest storage challenges • Run 24x7 operations • Comply with regulations • Simplify infrastructure management • Consolidate servers and storage • Create an infrastructure that can adapt

4. Simplifying server and storage consolidation • Ensuring 24x7 operations and disaster recovery • Delivering the infrastructure for change = HP Servers and HP StorageWorks delivering more together • Unified management • Shared technology • End-to-end virtualization • Tiered storage • Savings for NonStop™ • Certified cluster solutions • Certified disaster tolerance • HP BladeSystems

13. Why all of this? • Saves costs of buying more servers just for extra hard drive space • Allows IT administrators more time to focus on more important tasks other than managing storage space and single servers • Allows the IT department to adapt to increasing computing needs effortlessly • Allows the IT department to plan for future computing needs without a forklift hardware upgrade • Protects our existing and future investments in technology • Allows for disaster recovery and redundancy at the highest levels • Allows a failed server to be back in production in minutes instead of hours
