The HPE 3PAR StoreServ storage solution has been successfully utilized in various use cases, proving its versatility and effectiveness. One notable example is the implementation of a new ERP system for an academic client. Users were able to leverage the HPE 3PAR StoreServ 8200 as the storage layer, providing both file-based and block storage options to cater to different storage needs, such as applications and database volumes. With the dedupe feature, users have been able to significantly reduce their overall estimated storage footprint. In addition, the mix of SATA and SSD drives in the HPE 8200 unit has offered affordability and tiered storage options, ensuring smooth performance for PRD SQL databases without disk latency concerns.
Another valuable use case involved using two units of the HPE 3PAR StoreServ - the HPE 7200 and HPE 8200 - as the primary storage platform for an enterprise. This configuration allowed for efficient management of the organization's data while providing high-performance storage solutions. The replication feature of the HPE 3PAR ensured effective disaster recovery by replicating data within approximately 15 minutes of 'live'. Additionally, the all-flash array configuration of the HP 3PAR served as the primary storage for database servers within Central IT, supporting virtual machines and database files.
Overall, customers have found the HPE 3PAR StoreServ to be a reliable and versatile storage solution, meeting their diverse needs for data storage, application performance, and disaster recovery.

- The 3PAR has allowed our organization to expand business due to its ability to be expanded with no downtime.
HPE 3PAR Review
- I have very good experience with HPE 3 PAR, customer support is awesome.
- It works very well and support all types of IOPS and performance.
- It solved our latency issue.
Fast, easy to manage, and will make you look incredible!
- Thanks to 3PAR enclosures, we now have a disaster recovery solution that is both more affordable than the hyper-converged solution we had considered for our HQ and DR col-lo and with a whole lot better replication speed and less latency overall. I can't quantify a saved expense for Disaster recovery because it hasn't happened yet, but I would guess that just having a good solid DR solution powered by HPE 3PAR could easily save us millions per day in the event of a disaster. We would be able to keep working even if we lost our primary datacenter.
- The 3PARS have eliminated the need for more overly complicated NetApp enclosures with their clunky GUI and requirements for what can only be described as arcane knowledge. We've saved hours and hours of engineer's time by using the easy-to-provision and easy-to-manage 3PARS, and pulling storage reports is a total snap. I'd guess we save about 10 hours per month in engineering time.

- We grew unexpectedly, which forced us to buy a lot of expensive HP SSD's.
- We have never had any performance issues with this storage.
It does its job but is lacking on many fronts
- It was very costly to purchase and the licensing/support/upgrading is also very costly.
- It does provide what we need for data storage, but I think we could have done that for less overall money.
- HPE 3PAR StoreServ was easy to configure. We contracted storage experts for initial setup and our in house technical team was able to take over the work with little training. This requires minimal day to day monitoring and hence reduces maintenance cost.
- The time to Go Live was fast and hence that as well helped us save time and money.
HP 3PAR StoreServ 8200
- The all flash HP 3PAR StoreServ provides great IOPS bandwidth. It depends on how many disks you have, for my environment of 8 disks with 6 TB each SSD, it allows upto 80,000 IOPS.
- HP 3PAR StoreServ has native offsite replication capability and onsite snapshot copy features. These features allow faster recovery.
- HP 3PAR StoreServ comes with inbuilt High Availability at controller nodes level and internal disk redundancy. This allows sustaining disk failures or controller node failure without immediately causing downtime.
- The deduplication feature, when turned on, provides a compaction ratio up to 25:1 times and hence helps reducing overall storage footprint, as HP claims, up to 95 % times.
HP 3PAR StoreServ Flash storage - High performance storage that won't break the bank
- Our data bases are performing at very high levels and can now support the few times a year when we have very high demand.
- The system is very easy to use and has saved us up to 10 hours per week compared to our old system.
- With the smaller footprint we are consuming less electricity and using less cooling to provide more storage that is faster than our old solution.
