Storage Virtualization

How Do HP’s Storage Virtualization Technologies Work?

HP’s storage virtualization technologies create a logical representation of physical resources as pools rather than individual devices. Servers, applications, and other agents can draw what they need from these pools without regard for the origin of the resource.

HP Storage Vritualization Benefits Include:

• Improved Asset Utilization: Since servers, storage, networking and other resources are pooled, resources can be easily allocated as required.


• Increased Business Agility: By making your infrastructure more flexible, your IT organization can more easily allocate IT resources to meet new service demands.


• Save Time: Adding capacity to meet new or expanding computing requirements can be completed in minutes or hours, rather than days.


• Improved IT Delivery Quality: The ability to quickly analyze your resource needs and dynamically allocate resources helps your IT organization meet—or exceed—service levels.


• Lower IT Costs: By virtualizing servers, storage, networking and other resources, HP and GreenPages can help you achieve a greater return on your IT investment.
