Scalable Performance for Enterprise Growth
The HPE 3PAR StoreServ 20000 delivers industry-leading performance with over 3 million IOPS at sub-millisecond latency. Scale capacity up to 9.6 PB raw (over 20 PB usable) across up to eight controllers in a Mesh-Active cluster. Achieve a 6× density advantage with more than 9 PB of usable capacity in a single expansion rack, cutting storage footprint by 75% without compromising performance.
Flexible and Intelligent Storage
Support unpredictable business demands with an elastic pool of storage that allows on-demand workload balancing. Unified management of block, file, and object storage simplifies administration, while HPE 3PAR Gen5 ASIC accelerates mixed workloads. Self-configuring, self-provisioning, and self-optimizing features reduce management overhead.
Resilient and Reliable
Maintain Tier-1 resiliency and high availability with redundant controllers, power supplies, persistent cache, and drive sparing. Deliver consistent QoS with HPE 3PAR Priority Optimization Software and achieve application-integrated recovery with near-synchronous RPOs. Simplify backup and restores with HPE Recovery Manager Central.
Future-Ready and Hybrid-Ready
Modernize existing EMC, HDS, or IBM storage with seamless, no-cost data migration. Move data across any HPE 3PAR model effortlessly. The HPE Flash Now Program offers all-flash performance on-prem at cost-effective rates. Automated SAN configuration with HPE Smart SAN ensures efficient deployment.
