This Magic Quadrant represents vendors that sell into the end-user market with branded midrange and high-end modular disk array storage systems that support block-access protocols. Despite rather gloomy macroeconomic conditions worldwide and ongoing geopolitical unrest in the Middle East, the midrange and high-end modular disk array storage market grew 8.2% from 3Q10 through 2Q11, compared with the same period the year before. Propelled by technological innovation and enhanced scalability, this continued growth in vendor revenue supports the observation that IT executives are willing to invest in modern midrange and high-end modular disk storage systems to improve operational efficiency, to support deployments of virtualized IT infrastructures, and to address the impact of unabated terabyte growth.

Organizations need a strategy for rearchitecting storage so that it enables, rather than constricts, the delivery of IT services. According to HP, it's all about Converged Storage, which breaks through the barriers, reducing complexity so that IT can expand storage on a "pay as you grow" basis. It involves the creation a pool of storage based on modular building blocks that can be moved and reconfigured on the fly to support a range of needs. In fact, HP's approach to Converged Storage incorporates several core capabilities - read this tech dossier sponsored by HP + Intel to learn more.

Server virtualization has transformed corporate IT -- companies have enjoyed major cost savings and have gained flexibility and efficiency. But this has also led to a proliferation of virtual machines and servers that threaten to overwhelm data movement and storage technologies. In this IDG Tech Dossier sponsored by HP + Intel, learn how utility storage makes for massive consolidation, flexibility and scalability, so IT departments can reduce storage infrastructure and lower costs while improving their ability to respond to fast-changing needs of business units.

Implementing Converged Storage is an evolution and does not require immediate wholesale replacement of current systems. But by putting a plan into place now, enterprises can optimize their current storage investments while building toward a converged future and accruing concomitant benefits along the way. Virtualization and cloud computing can help corporate IT meet these demands by helping it become more flexible and agile. But the ultimate solution is to transform the way IT is delivered. Many enterprises have already started on the journey toward a full IT as a service (ITaaS) model, which HP and Intel aptly call the Instant-On Enterprise.

Achieving an optimum degree of airflow containment cannot be reached through a one-size-fits-all solution. The true measurement of any containment solution is dependent upon using a Hot Aisle, Cold Aisle or Cabinet Containment strategy that has been optimized for airflow, static pressure, leakage, bypass air and temperature variance.
