The purpose of this white paper is to describe the benefits of a clustered architecture in comparison with traditional controller-based architectures, and to discuss the technology that makes HP LeftHand SANs better by design. 

This paper sets out a framework for evaluating a data center. It considers the special factors that apply to an on-demand infrastructure, many of which go well beyond the standards applicable to the average enterprise data center.

A business manager identifies an urgent need for a software application and requests a server to run the new application. Then the server provisioning process kicks off. Read this short whitepaper to learn about new techniques and technologies that can enable your business to cut through so much of the red tape involved in adding new applications. 

As USB devices have evolved into useful storage media, they've also turned into a security nightmare for organizations. Read how to embrace this technology to aid in the reduction of operating costs and effectively protect data by enforcing removable device usage policies. 

In a virtual server infrastructure where all resources are shared, optimal performance can only be achieved with an adequate amount of properly allocated resource capacity. Not allocating enough resources can cause critical bottlenecks - leading to performance problems and costly downtime events. 

3PAR Thin Provisioning software improves storage system efficiency and optimizes capacity utilization system-wide. No more up-front capacity allocation. No more dedicating resources for each application. No more paying to power, house, and cool disks you may not need for months or years to come, or may never actually need. 

IDC believes that thin provisioning is a powerful enabling technology with significant benefits to offer storage administrators looking for higher levels of storage efficiency.
