3PAR Utility Storage for Server Virtualization Environments

Take Server Virtualization to the Next Power

When deployed smartly, server virtualization can deliver cost savings, efficiency gains, and increased service levels that not only transform your datacenter, but the lines of business fueld by that datacenter. However, if you aren’t careful, virtual server deployments can demand large amounts of pre-dedicated disk capacity and place heavy performance loads on your storage environment—leaving you with lower than anticipated ROI.

Whereas traditional storage has continually failed to keep up with the changes and demands of virtualized server environments, the 3PAR^® Utility Storage platform was designed from the ground up to deliver transformative levels of simplicity, agility, and efficiency for virtualized environments. Exclusive virtualization and automation features built into the 3PAR InServ^® Storage Server and InForm^® software deliver unique benefits that take server virtualization to the next power, enabling you to consolidate, simplify, and save.

• Consolidate: Buy 50% fewer physical servers.
• Simplify: Spend 90% less time managing storage.
• Save: Cut storage capacity requirements by 50%—guaranteed.

Virtual Servers Demand 3PAR Utility Storage
The InServ platform meets the specific challenges of the virtual datacenter with a range of software and technologies unique to 3PAR and uniquely complementary to server virtualization with VMware vSphere™, Microsoft^® Windows Server 2008 Hyper-V, and Citrix XenServer™.
