HP introduces 3PAR Online Import support for EMC Storage

VARINDIA- INDIA'S FRONTLINE IT MAGAZINE

 

HP(NYSE:HPQ) has introduced HP 3PAR Online Import support for migrating data from EMC VNX(1) and EMC CLARiiONCX4 arrays to HP 3PAR Store Serv Storage, enabling customers to easily and quickly modernize legacy storage infrastructure.

With support for HP EVA Storage and now EMC VNX(1) and CLARiiONCX4 storage systems, customers  can save time and money by performing self-directed platform migrations without professional services engagements or external hardware appliances.

The introduction of virtualization, cloud and IT-as-a-Service workloads into the data center adds unpredictable demands on legacy storage, compromising an organization’s ability to be agile and efficient. Additionally, moving to a new storage system often requires resource-intensive planning, change management and data migration.

"IT managers are challenged to increase business agility and efficiency but are constantly held back by gaps in fragmented and complex legacy storage systems. HP 3PAR StoreServStorage delivers features not available on EMC VNX and now we are removing the data migration roadblock to enable affordable tier-I storage for trapped EMC customers," said Barun Lala, Director, Storage, HP India.

HP 3PAR Online Import software is included at no charge for 180 days with the HP 3PAR OS Suite, version 3.1.2 MU2 and later. HP 3PAR Online Import support for EMC VNX(1) and EMC CLARiiON CX4 arrays will be available in June at no additional cost, and will be included as part of the 3PAR........See More
