HP 3 PAR Factoids

•    Four out of the top five leading analyst-rated service providers in the world use HP 3PAR.

•    The number 1 platform 3PAR has displaced in the market over its ten year history is Symmetrix/DMX/VMAX.

•    HP 3PAR wide-striping delivers idiot-proof performance, without the complexity of having to create and manage metaLUNS and things like that.      DMX/VMAX can’t do this.

•    HP 3PAR provisions capacity to LUNS in 16 kilobyte blocks, delivering tremendous disk efficiency.  VMAX uses 768 kilobyte blocks.

•    HP 3PAR scales up to four controller pairs, with every LUN active on every one of the controllers. VMAX LUNs spans two controllers.

•    HP 3PAR was first to market with VMware VAAI integration. HP got there before EMC.  EMC owns VMware.

•    HP 3PAR is easier to use and more efficient than any previous-generation high-end storage array.
