HP has introduced an easy-to-manage virtual storage disk array designed specifically for mid-size customers who need to reduce the costs and complexity of implementing a storage-area network (SAN).
The HP StorageWorks 4400 Enterprise Virtual Array (EVA4400) offers a combination of high-performance and availability features, virtualisation capabilities and advanced provisioning software that makes it ideal for mid-size businesses that want to cost-effectively manage large amounts of data in a SAN environment without investing in deep storage experience, the company said.
The EVA4400 has key virtualisation features previously available only on high-end arrays, but now at a price designed for mid-size businesses. Specifically it features a dual-redundant hardware architecture that supports local and remote replication software.
Storage provisioning is also available with HP StorageWorks EVA Dynamic Capacity Management (DCM) software to help efficiently manage resources and improve overall productivity.
