COMPLETE, a leading Russian systems integrator and corporate IT vendor, is one of the first in the country to allow customers to try out the HP 3PAR family of innovative storage and wireless connectivity solutions.

Cloud computing and virtualization have enjoyed a boom in popularity, prompting heightened interest among customers. COMPLETE offers the chance to experience the benefits of 3PAR technology by testing the new line of state-of-the-art HP solutions for building hybrid cloud infrastructures at the COMPLETE–HP Computing Centre. Thanks to remote access, the demo centre is available to customers throughout Russia.

In September 2010, Hewlett-Packard announced the conclusion of a deal to acquire 3PAR, a California-based storage vendor. By the beginning of 2011, 3PAR disk arrays found their new home in the HP StorageWorks line, situated between EVA modular arrays and the P9500 (previously XP) monoliths.

"Corporate business processes and their supporting IT infrastructures are becoming more and more intertwined in today's environment. With the use of virtualization and cloud computing, the sine qua non for employees these days is being able to remotely access IT resources at any time, anywhere in the world. COMPLETE is keeping abreast of these global trends. And the deployment of HP's innovative solutions, based on 3PAR's revolutionary storage technology, is another example of how the company is leading the pack", remarks Oleg Podukov, Technical Director at COMPLETE.

The standout advantages of HP's new 3PAR line are:

§      Automatic data distribution among multiple storage tiers.

§      Dynamic thin provisioning, which can allocate greater storage capacity to applications than is physically available.

§      Highly automated management.

3PAR virtualization tools allow the creation of multiple "virtual arrays" which are isolated from each other, all within a single disk system. This makes it possible to safely use information that belongs to different owners. One benefit of this approach is that clients deploying HP 3PAR cloud technologies can avoid purchasing excess storage capacity for contingency situations; this efficiency reduces expenses on hardware, energy, and cooling.
