3PAR Utility Storage Performance

3PAR^® Utility Storage delivers abundantly scalable levels of performance for multiple disparate applications in a single, dynamically-tiered array. Consolidate with confidence and avoid the high human and capital costs typically associated with managing performance.

3PAR has demonstrated leadership in multiple open storage benchmarks including the SPC Benchmark 1^™(SPC-1™) for SAN and SPEC SFS97 for NAS.  With SPC-1 benchmark results of over 224,000 IOPS, the InServ^® T800 Storage Server has set a new performance record, doubling the performance of the previous generation of InServ arrays to become the fastest single-system array on the market.

• Learn more about 3PAR's record-setting SPC-1 results with the InServ T-Class, the world's most powerful virtualized array.
  

3PAR InServ arrays offer unique mixed workload support so transaction- and throughput-intensive workloads run without contention on the same storage resources, alleviating performance concerns and cutting traditional array costs dramatically. InServ arrays are massively parallel and autonomically load balanced, making simplified performance and high levels of consolidation easily achievable by any organization.

• Explore the comparative complexity of attaining SPC-1 results. Learn how Oracle^® achieved high performance with minimal effort, how data service levels were dynamically optimized in SPEC SFS97 results, and how linear scalability was demonstrated with Microsoft Exchange.

3PAR also makes high levels of performance and consolidation affordable, so you don't have to overprovision capacity or resort to overly complex administration for the sake of performance.

• Compare the cost effectiveness of SPC-1 results, and see how Oracle^® demonstrated cost effective RAID 5 and Thin Provisioning.

3PAR's innovative approach to cost-optimized storage gives you the ability to deploy 100% Nearline storage—high-capacity, low-cost, enterprise SATA drives—to meet the performance demands of both "online" and "nearline" applications with a single, consolidated, and massively scalable array.

• Learn how 3PAR Nearline for Online can allow you to meet service level requirements of all your applications using exclusively SATA technology.
