subject: Hp Introduces New Tape Automation Solutions And High Performance Servers [print this page] Hewlett Packard, a leader in backup storage industry, offers you an entire I.T strategy that facilitates the customers to develop a highly robust and efficient infrastructure. Reliable backup solutions offered by HP empower the businesses to enhance the utilization and performance of their backup resources through automated system management and trouble-free integration. HPs storage solutions allow your organization to cost-effectively scale, so that you can keep pace with the exploding backup demands.
During the annual Technology Forum, Las Vegas 2010, HP unveiled its new high performance blades, ProLiant servers and storage solutions. HP aims to further simplify the management and deployment of virtual environments along with the ability to control the power consumption in data centers.
HP has intelligently developed these new ProLiant servers on basis of new innovative converged infrastructure strategy that will efficiently handle the increasing complexity, sprawl and operational costs.
HPs new ProLiant DL980 G7 and DL785 G5 servers feature automation capabilities that enable better resource utilization and high speed data transfer, thus improving your return on investment. For rock solid reliability and in-time availability, HP has employed new self-healing mechanism in new server machines. In addition to this, memory footprints of these HP servers have been enhanced to 2 terabytes.
According to the IDC (International Data Corporation), the market share of HP blade server during the first quarter of 2010 was 56.1%, and 39.2% market share for x86 servers.
HP ProLiant servers are ideally suited for storage-intensive workloads and modern demanding applications. Consolidation ration of these HP server machines reach up to 91-to-1.

Along with these ProLiant servers, seven new Hewlett-Packard ProLiant G7 server blades have been introduced that are best for virtualized environments. There are the industrys first blades that feature 1 TB memory and Flex-Fabric 10 GB Virtual technology for improved scalability. As compared to the competitive blades, these HP ProLiant G7 server blades deliver up to four times greater performance and data throughput.
HP has included converging storage networks, wire-once network and automated connectivity to its industry leading virtual connect portfolio. This has been made possible by the deployment of new Flex-Fabric module into the HP ProLiant G7 blades. This powerful device enables the data managers to connect the servers to any iSCSI, Ethernet and Fiber channel without requiring any multiple interconnects.
Thats not all; HPs exclusive Blade-System Matrix software also has been intelligently integrated with the servers. This powerful integration and converged infrastructure allows seamless deployment of servers in virtual I.T environments, thus leading to superior operational efficiency.
During first half of 2010, the sale of HPs Virtual Connect ports has crossed three million, which is almost double as compared to the last years sales. This is really a significant boost in sales, which reflects the superiority of HP products.
