HP launches early access program for next generation EVA

Part of HP's Converged Infrastructure portfolio, the HP P6000 EVA represents the company's fifth generation EVA and features increased capacity and performance improvements. The HP P6000 EVA, one of the easiest to manage storage arrays available, is typically deployed for core enterprise applications from messaging to enterprise resource planning (ERP). With the HP P6000 EVA, clients have the opportunity to modernize legacy infrastructure and increase return on investment. 

"We looked at what other storage vendors had on the market, and the HP EVA's expandability, ease of administration, and resiliency features fit our needs perfectly," said Bill Haggard, director of enterprise infrastructure, the Dallas Cowboys. "With the introduction of the HP P6000 EVA, we are excited to see the increased efficiency and integration into the rest of the Converged Infrastructure while continuing to deliver industry leading simplicity."

The HP P6000 EVA delivers greater flexibility and performance with a 6Gb/second Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) back-end, support for standard SAS hard disk drives, and eight gigabit Fibre Channel connectivity. Further details on management enhancements and advanced software features will be disclosed at the HP DISCOVER event in Las Vegas, NV, taking place June 6 - 10.

"Due to our clients' need for ease-of-use and reliability, the EVA has become an essential storage building block of their most important applications," said Walid Gomaa, StorageWorks Business Unit Manager and Sales Manager, HP Middle East. "The HP P6000 EVA offers our clients a holistic approach to storage infrastructure, from general-purpose storage to messaging to data applications, which enables them to efficiently run their businesses."
