3PAR Thin Persistence Software

With next-generation space reclamation from 3PAR^®, staying thin is as easy as starting thin or getting thin. On average, 3PAR Thin Provisioning customers are able to purchase 60% less capacity than would have been required with legacy arrays. With Thin Persistence and Thin Copy Reclamation, you can extend this to a total capacity savings of 70% or more.

An industry first, 3PAR Thin Persistence keeps your storage as lean and efficient as possible by using 3PAR's unique Thin Engine to reclaim space from deleted volumes.

3PAR Thin Persistence can also drive additional capacity benefits when leveraged with the following partner platforms:

With Veritas Storage Foundation™ For customers using Veritas Storage Foundation by Symantec, Thin Persistence also includes 3PAR Thin Reclamation for Veritas Storage Foundation, which enables the use of granular file system-level information to autonomically reclaim unused space within thin volumes so they stay thin over time.

With Oracle^® Database Oracle Database 10g and 11g customers using Oracle Automatic Storage Management (ASM) and 3PAR Utility Storage can reclaim allocated but unused disk space using 3PAR Thin Persistence with the new Oracle ASM Storage Reclamation Utility (ASRU). Learn more »

With VMware vSphere™ For VMware vSphere users, 3PAR Thin Persistence software ensures storage capacity efficiency by maintaining the thinness of virtual machine disks (VMDKs) at the storage layer. In addition, Thin Persistence delivers performance benefits while eliminating the capacity tradeoffs associated with the highest-performing VMDK format, Eager Zeroed Thick. Learn more »
