HP LEFTHAND SANS

HP's Lefthand SANs offer state-of-the-art technology in a configuration ideal for midsized businesses. Unlike other SANs it offers only a single controller per chassis but is sold in pairs. This offers a level of redundancy that can't be achieved by other vendors.

Thin Provisioning reduces costs by increasing storage efficiency

Thin Provisioning allocates space only as data is actually written without requiring pre-allocation of storage.
This raises the overall utilization and efficiency of the HP P4000 SAN and ultimately increases the ROI.

Storage Clustering simplifies scalability

Storage Clustering allows a customer to consolidate multiple storage nodes into pools of storage. All available capacity and performance is aggregated and available to every volume in the cluster. As storage needs increase the HP P4000 can scale performance and capacity on-line.

Network RAID delivers new levels of data availability

Network RAID stripes and mirrors multiple copies of data across a cluster of storage nodes, eliminating any single point of failure in the HP P4000 SAN. Applications have continuous data availability in the event of a power, network, disk, controller, or entire storage node failure.

Snapshots simplify data protection

Snapshots create thinly provisioned, instant point-in-time copies of data on a per-volume basis. Administrators can access HP P4000 SAN snapshots to recover individual files/folders from the volume, or rollback an entire volume to a prior state.

Remote Copy reduces costs for disaster recovery

Remote Copy replicates snapshots between HP P4000 SANs at primary and remote locations. Copies are thinly provisioned with no space reservation required at the remote location. Remote Copy enables centralized backup and disaster recovery on a per-volume basis.
