- Network RAID technology aggregates all resources & capacity into a single storage pool making all available capacity & performance accessible to every volume in the cluster, allowing all cluster resources to contribute to performance: CPUs, RAID controllers, NICs, caches, & disk spindles.
- The Network RAID functionality also stripes & protects multiple copies of data across a storage cluster, removing any single point of failure. Redundancy is managed on a per-volume basis to improve storage utilization & match the data protection of the volume to the application′s requirements.
- Now with i SCSI & optional Fibre Channel connectivity, mixed protocol environments can benefit from a single flexible storage solution for all locations. Be prepared for what the future may bring
- migrate from one protocol to the other without having to redesign or replace your storage. Superior Data High Availability & Disaster Recovery
- With proven 99.999 percent high availability & reliability the storage cluster can sustain multiple concurrent failures & still keep data online & accessible to applications. This solution provides worry-free storage for your centralized datacenter as well as for remote & branch offices.
- VMware certified Multi-site disaster recovery provides business continuity with failover transparent to users & applications. The Multi-site configuration is designed to maintain data availability beyond a single physical or logical site & validates full compatibility with VMware HA features.
- Left Hand Remote Copy lets you asynchronously replicate thin provisioned, reservationless snapshots between primary & remote locations. This feature enables centralized backup & disaster recovery on a per-volume basis & leverages application integrated snapshots for faster recovery.
- Left Hand Peer Motion is an online data mobility technology that allows the movement of volumes across all deployed HP Store Virtual nodes regardless of platform or drive type.
