Storage Management White Papers

HP StorageWorks Consolidation Solutions

Overview HP StorageWorks Consolidation Solutions address the fundamental problem IT managers face today - managing exponential storage growth with lower IT budgets. Consolidation brings a more efficient approach to storage deployment and management through rationalizing storage resources, increasing capacity utilization, and centralizing storage management. Cost savings are realized by maximizing asset and staff utilization while reducing operating expenses. Service levels can be improved through predictable performance, prioritization of service, and high availability. Rapid access to customer data and greater collaboration across the organization reduces time-to-market and improves business flexibility.
