For most mid-sized and even small businesses,managing data is a major challenge The growthof structured data from databases, email, and otherapplications, as well as file data such as PDFs,audio, video, and graphics has been exponentialFurthermore, no end is in sight According to IDC, theneed for online data storage capacity is increasingat a rate of nearly 50 percent per year; by 2013, it isestimated that companies worldwide will require diskstorage of more than 52,000 petabytes of data1

The increasing flood of data can lead to a host ofproblems, like added time and system slowdownsdue to the sheer volume of data; added cost, in newequipment and especially in management overhead,to provide for all this data accumulation; and theadded business risk that comes with larger data stores

The temptation is to accommodate added data byincreasing the number of servers and disk drivesBut simply adding servers is not the answerin fact,without planning, the direct attachment of additional

drives or servers can create islands of storage,resulting in greater management requirements Suchan unplanned and reactive approach to storage isinefficient, raising costs while limiting flexibility and thecapacity to respond to new business opportunities

Furthermore, whenever multiple devices are deployserve the same basic need, risks increase because are now multiple devices and file volumes to protec

Failing to recognize that data storage must bemanaged as a critical resource often results in a vdifficult environment to manage, a higher cost ofownership, less responsiveness to change, and adrisk to the business

The answer: Consolidating storage with HP Sim

StorageWorks solutions

HP network storage provides many advantages ovthe limitations of unplanned or direct attached stoBy consolidating storage into a dedicated resourcyou can make your data available to any computeor server on the networkthere are no isolatedsilos or islands of capacity A dedicated, optimizenetwork storage solution can reduce operatingcosts by simplifying management and improvingcapacity utilization

P4000 G2 SAN Solutions, and the HP StorageWoEnterprise Virtual Array (EVA) family

Potential energy savings was definitely among the main reasonsfor going to VMware in the first place, and subsequently for gettingHP P4000 SANs. The green benefit was an important reason forgoing to blades. We have some impressive numbers on expectedenergy savings with the HP BladeSystem, and blades use less spacen the data center. The 48 HP ProLiant server blades fit in one rack.

With rack mount servers that would take at least two racks, sohere is a space savings of at least 50 percent.Shane Nicely, Vice President, Information Services, Network Services Manager,Heartland Financial USA, Inc
