HP Storage for Microsoft SQL Server Solution Brief.pdf

HP storage for small and medium businesses and Microsoft SQL Server

Manage, analyze and protect your data

HP StorageWorks solution brief

Information becomes knowledge in the blink of an eye.

But if you don’t use it, you’re operating blindly.

Information comes at you fast. Go ahead: blink your

eyes. That’s how fast. But what happens to it next? In

many cases, information just sits there, taking up

valuable server storage space and IT resources.

The HP AiO Storage System and HP ProLiant Storage

Server both deliver optimized Microsoft Windows® file

serving and a radically simplified management

experience (via HP AiO Storage Manager [ASM]

software), designed for IT generalists with no storage

expertise. On top of that, HP AiO Storage Systems

include iSCSI entry-level storage array capability and

integrated data protection features. HP ProLiant

Storage Servers can be optionally upgraded to provide

those same services.

You need a data management solution that will earn

its keep. The HP StorageWorks and Microsoft® SQL

Server solution for small and medium businesses

(SMBs) combines reliability, security and scalability

into a one-stop solution that grows as your company

does—while freeing up space, time and money.

The HP StorageWorks MSA2000 is a family of storage

arrays specifically designed to address small and

medium business requirements. IT features fibre

channel, iSCSI and SAS host interconnects with

optional snapshot and clone software at affordable

price points.

Microsoft SQL Server supports your data management,

reporting and analytical applications as a highly

available, scalable and secure solution. With Microsoft

SQL Server, you can easily access the data you need

when you want it. It also allows increased IT

productivity by reducing the complexity of building,

deploying and managing database applications.

Next, HP Simply Business Protection provides reliable

data protection for business continuity of your

Microsoft SQL Server deployment. Choices include HP

stand-alone tape drives, tape autoloaders or libraries;

digital audio tape (DAT) or linear tape-open (LTO) HP

Ultrium technology; disk-based data protection

solutions such as HP StorageWorks disk-to-disk (D2D)

and Virtual Library System (VLS).

Anticipating your needs

In order to turn information into knowledge, you need

the right tools to do it quickly, efficiently and reliably.

HP StorageWorks delivers better business outcomes by

bringing together the tools, solutions, products and

services to help you navigate the storage landscape,

bridging the gap between the data explosion and your

IT infrastructure. With simple, affordable and reliable

storage consolidation and business protection

solutions, HP can help you improve the efficiency,

performance and continuity of your business with

Microsoft SQL Server.

HP can help you manage your storage environment so

that you can easily handle growth, decrease costs and

protect your data. Highly skilled, HP-certified

professionals offer a breadth of expertise across

leading storage technologies.

Contact your HP sales representative. They’ll meet with

you to analyze your needs, and propose a

configuration solution that makes sense for your

organization and budget.

First, choose your storage platform: HP StorageWorks

All-in-One (AiO) Storage System, HP ProLiant Storage

Servers or HP StorageWorks 2000 Modular Smart

Array (MSA2000).

So go ahead: relax. Take 40 winks if you want. You’ve

earned it.
