(Click on the image to go to the HP Discover event page)
HP Discover is creeping up on me quickly and I am definitely excited about it. For those of you coming, I wanted to give you my pick for the top storage sessions to consider. Now mind you, I'm sure there will be other great sessions that aren't in our storage track - but hey, I am the Storage Guy. So here's my list of top storage sessions:
New HP EVA improves capacity, performance and total cost of ownership
- New models, EVA P6350 and EVA P6550, with twice the cache
- Increased addressable capacity now over 1PB
- New drive options including support for 200GB and 400GB Small Form Factor (SFF) Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) Solid State Disk (SSD)
- New 3TB SAS drive option for increased scalability
- Integration with VMware vSphere Storage APs (VAAI)
- Performance Advisor Software for intuitive, easy-to-use performance monitoring and troubleshooting interface
