Rating: (0)

Overview: The success of SQL Server has given rise, to a huge growth in the number of servers dedicated to hosting it. The result of this proliferation has too often been low levels of utilization, high capital costs, large amounts of stranded capacity, poor availability and—as the most dire consequence—an ongoing management burden. Fortunately, there is a way to deploy SQL Server that can flex capacity to need, reduce capital costs, improve availability and dramatically simplify management. HP PolyServe Software for Microsoft SQL Server based on shared data clustering allows servers and storage to be brought together into a unified pool to satisfy SQL Server needs.

In many real customer scenarios, HP PolyServe Software for Microsoft SQL Server has achieved dramatic improvements in capital effectiveness and ongoing operational expense:
• Server counts are typically reduced by 50% or more
• Configuration and maintenance time can be reduced by 75%
• Total Cost of Ownership over a three- or four-year deployment cycle can be reduced by as much as 70%
