In today's connected global marketplace, data centers are more important than ever. Customers expect to purchase products and access services 24x7. So any downtime-planned or unplanned- can disrupt critical business processes. New regulations are requiring organizations to store larger quantities of data for longer periods of time. And environmental concerns mean data centers are under increasing pressure to reduce their carbon footprint and dispose of old equipment in a safe and eco-friendly manner. To meet these evolving demands, data centers must achieve near continuous availability, increase capacity and efficiency, and become greener.
This paper looks at HP's approach to Data Center Transformation and how it can help enterprise data centers reduce costs, manage risks, and support business growth. It highlights major challenges for data center managers and how HP is helping its customers address them.
