HP BladeSystem Matrix
What if your infrastructure was virtualized? And by that, we don’t mean simply running virtual machines on servers. Think big. Really big. Across the data center big. Imagine all the physical components, the network connections, the storage capacity, even the power as one pool of resources that you could carve up on demand and assign to different applications. Automated in a way to connect all the moving pieces to make the best use of the capacity you have. All in a standard way, on top of fewer standardized parts.
Inside this environment, no one would care whether the application was on a virtual machine or a physical server. It would work the same way. LAN and SAN colleagues wouldn’t care whether the server admin added capacity, moved an application or rebalanced a workload. The connections just follow the moving application. Capacity planning of all resources would be at your fingertips to help you make better decisions. Best practices could be followed every single time, provisioned with the push of a button; making consolidation a ho-hum project and disaster recovery affordable to every application.
This in not vision of tomorrow. HP BladeSystem Matrix is here now to help you realize your vision for your data center, today. The most fully integrated, adaptive infrastructure environment that HP has ever created, Matrix brings together the best of HP and our partner data center know-how into one environment.
