HP Converged Storage Business Whitepaper

Published January 2013

IDC estimates that in today’s data centers, storage accounts for 37 percent of the total energy consumed - and storage needs will only continue to grow. Combine that with these statistics: cooling represents more than 60–70 percent of data center power spend, and approximately 85 percent of the world’s data centers are over-provisioned by more than double. In other words, enterprises have been buying more capacity than they need, over-provisioning their storage, and overcooling their equipment.

HP offers storage that helps organizations become more efficient - regardless of whether they are looking to optimize a traditional data center or transition to a converged infrastructure or cloud computing environment.

Within this portfolio, HP Converged Storage products are designed to help today’s organizations remove boundaries between storage silos and bring that storage closer to applications to improve not just power efficiency, but overall IT efficiency.
