Overview Much of the storage on the market today is management-intensive—resulting in complexity, human error, and an inability to move data without downtime or service level impacts. As part of a dynamic and unpredictable virtualized or cloud environment, these complications start to look more like chaos. HP Converged Storage makes storage management autonomic—replacing manual tasks with built-in automation and virtualization that responds instantly to demands placed on your array. It’s storage provisioning, tiering and ongoing change management that happens intelligently, at a sub-system level and without administrator intervention. Autonomic management makes storage systems self-configuring, self-optimizing, self-monitoring and self-healing. It’s storage that just works, so you can work on other things. With autonomic management, you can: - Meet service level changes without dropping what you’re doing.
Policy-driven, autonomic storage tiering balances cost and performance automatically, intelligently and without manual intervention.
- Make tedious administration tasks a thing of the past.
Eliminate up to 90% of the time that you currently spend doing tedious, manual storage administration tasks.
