HP's EVP Dave Donatelli joins Wikibon's Dave Vellante inside the Cube from Barcelona. Vellante asks Donatelli, how much of the 3PAR acquisition was related to cloud versus filling out the HP storage portfolio. Donatelli stresses the fact that 3PAR, like HP's StoreOnce deduplication technology serves multiple markets with a single product and was a big part of the appeal to HP.
Solid-state storage is a fourth major driver in IT infrastructure, he says, and HP again is moving to put itself in the lead in this trend. "We have unified our solid-state supply chain from the smart phone through the desktop to the server. Because many more smartphones are being sold than servers, riding that price curve will be great for consumers." He says that customers can save 50% out of the gate with HP today and that curve will enhance that savings over time.
The expansion of nonvolatile, solid-state memory is a huge strategic change in the infrastructure, he says. It will change the relationship in how servers are built and how storage and networks interact with those servers. "Since we have all three parts of the hardware equation, by putting flash storage in the center of developing in HP Labs we can drive that change."
"Our customers are asking us to do three things: reduce complexity, improve agility, and reduce price. What we have to show is that by moving to the newer technologies they will save money. Yesterday we announced a guarantee that our customers would be able to store twice the data in the same space with the new generation products or we would give them storage for free, that they can run twice the VMs on our new servers, or we give them servers for free."
