Small Branch Office Scenario 1 (i)
A small consolidated branch office supporting
10–15 employees.
Exponential growth in business data is putting
the existing storage infrastructure under a great
amount of stress. Unable to cope with the growing
data demands, the infrastructure is slow and
highly inefficient. (Refer: Figure 1 (i) A)
Typical challenges
•Storage infrastructure is under enormous stress and
is slowing down performance
•Separate, shared-storage devices are expensive and
difficult to maintain
•Data backup processes are unreliable and
error-prone, putting business-critical data at risk
Proposed solution (Refer: Figure 1 (i) B)
•Two HP ProLiant DL180 G6 servers running Hyper-V
•HP StorageWorks P4000 Virtual SAN Appliance
Software transforms server disk drives and external
legacy storage into a virtual iSCSI SAN
•Virtual infrastructure, applications, and services
using Hyper-V
•HP StoreOnce D2D2503 Backup System with
built-in, advanced deduplication software
Solution benefits
•High server availability without the cost and
complexity of separate, external shared-storage
devices
•Reduce storage acquisition costs with the ability to
increase capacity utilization by up to 40 percent
5
•HP Network RAID functionality provides high
availability
•SAN management features without any additional
software purchases
•A virtual SAN that is easy to deploy and use
6
•A cost-effective, easy-to-install, unattended backup
solution suitable for an entry-level or remote office
•Centralize disk-based backup and
replication/archiving to the main office
