GET "PLUGGED IN" TO UTILITY STORAGE Welcome to the first issue of Plugged In, our Utility Storage newsletter. The technology to drastically simplify your storage environment is out there and our goal is to make sure you know about it. Building a simple storage environment that scales massively is a pipedream for most IT departments. The promise of a storage environment that is as simple to manage as a light switch seems just too good to be true. Or is it? What if you could drastically reduce the complexity within your SAN environment? Or if you could stop wasting money on disk drives that contain no written data? With a true Utility Storage solution, you don’t even have to think about storage—it’s just there when you need it. Many vendors promise the functionality of Utility Storage but only a few actually deliver it. Utility Storage has become the storage foundation for Utility Computing. Companies such as SAVVIS Communications and AMS are implementing worldwide Utility Storage solutions within their data centers—consolidating massive SAN environments down to the smallest number of arrays that meet their own acceptable risk profile. With this newsletter you’ll stay abreast with real-world examples of successful Utility Storage solutions from 3PAR®. To keep you Plugged In to the advances in Utility Computing, we’re including the latest news from storage experts and third-party industry trend studies. Also featured are Utility Computing implementations from companies such as Egenera that deliver virtualized blade servers—another critical component of a Utility Computing environment.
