Benefits of HP
StorageWorks
All-in-One
Storage Systems
Breakthrough simplicity
that lowers the cost and
complexity of data
management
The intuitive All-in-One Storage Manager interface radically simplifies the
growth, management, and protection of data by hiding complexity and
enabling storage to be a turnkey resource. Designed for IT generalists with
no storage expertise, these systems can be setup and actively serving files in
minutes.
Integrated and adaptive
storage solutions to
enable business growth
A single storage solution that can respond to a wide variety of business
needs. HP All-in-One Storage Systems offer an incredible degree of utility
and flexibility by providing shared storage for multiple application servers,
file serving for end-user clients, disk based backup capabilities, and data
protection for both file and application data via snapshots and backup
software.
Affordable and cost
effective solution for
growing application
environments
Managed through a single interface, HP All-in-One Storage provides shared
application storage (iSCSI Target), file serving (NAS), and data protection
below the cost of separate products and without the need to change your
infrastructure.
NOTE:
A dedicated segment is recommended for your iSCSI
traffic and can be implemented using standard Ethernet hardware you
probably already have.
Application-centric
storage management
simplifies operation and
lowers costs
Easy to manage because it uses terms and functions familiar to application
administrators. Includes end-to-end iSCSI management for Windows Servers
plus iSCSI provisioning for other iSCSI initiators (Linux, VMWare ESX Server,
etc.). Provides data migration wizards for Microsoft Exchange 2003/2007
and SQL Server 2000/2005.
'Best Practice' toolkit
makes every IT
Administrator look like a
storage expert
HP All-in-One Storage Systems include tools to easily migrate and manage
data using best practice settings. For example, iSCSI storage for a Microsoft
Exchange Storage Group can be expertly setup and migrated in less than
10 mouse clicks, saving you time and reducing the risk to your business.
Shared storage for
growing application
servers (iSCSI SAN)
enables efficient use of
capacity
Sharing storage between servers is more efficient and costs less to manage
over time when compared against adding additional drives to individual
servers. Sharing storage means that you maximize investments in additional
capacity while enabling easier growth and shorter backup windows. HP All-
in-One Storage Systems utilize the Microsoft iSCSI Software Target to
provide block-based access to network storage.
Enhanced file serving for
end-user clients (NAS) to
improve productivity and
collaboration
Tuned for faster file serving performance (20% faster than standard Windows
Server on the same hardware). Single Instance Storage (SIS) de-duplication
features can improve capacity utilization by 30% or more by eliminating
duplicate files within shared volumes. Full text search capabilities increase
the speed of end-user search. Support for heterogeneous environments
(CIFS/NFS) gives you the flexibility your changing business needs to serve
multiple operating environments.
Comprehensive and
integrated data
protection to ensure easy
roll-back and disaster
recovery
Provides an easy mechanism to manage disk based snapshots for easy
rollback, integrated data protection software for offsite and archive, hot plug
disk drives (RAID), and hardware redundancy. Data can also be replicated
to another system for enhanced disaster recovery. Utilize your All-in-One
Storage pool as a disk based backup target for other systems in your
environment and manage Data Protector Express virtual library objects direct
from the All-in-One Storage Manager.
Easy to deploy and
manage so you can
focus on your core
business
Uses standard tools and concepts familiar to server administrators to reduce
learning curve and barriers to network storage. The industry standard iSCSI
interface provides the benefits of shared SAN storage on a traditional
TCP/IP network. HP ProLiant hardware ensures reliability, low TCO, and
supportability. The All-in-One Storage Manager quickly walks administrators
through all major setup and management tasks.
Award winning
warranty, support and
troubleshooting tools to
ensure worry-free
operation
HP All-in-One Storage Systems can send alerts for various events such as an
impending disk failure reducing the potential for downtime while HP's world
class support organization and partner network ensures that you can quickly
recover in the case of a problem.
