Overview |
|
|
HP PolyServe Software for Microsoft SQL Server enables multiple Microsoft SQL Server instances to be consolidated onto substantially fewer servers and centralized SAN storage. HP PolyServe unique "shared data" architecture delivers enterprise class availability and virtualization-like flexibility in a utility platform.
Unlike server virtualization and traditionally high availability products, it goes beyond just consolidation and simple failovers to provide scalable capacity allocation, on-the-fly instance mobility, and meets Microsoft’s SQL Server Always On requirements, making it the ideal solution for database consolidation.

Features and Benefits |
|
|
Enables an adaptive scalable SQL server environment
- Adaptive Scalable Microsoft SQL Server Platform: Dynamic Re-Hosting provides Instance Mobility, the ability to move SQL Server instances from one server to another with less than 30 seconds of downtime, to optimize resources based on shifting workloads.
- Scale System Capacity Online: Add server, blade, and storage capacity without disrupting existing operations.
- Consolidated Data Management: Customers have experienced SQL Server count and storage footprint reduction of over 75%, leading to hard cost savings and a reduction of datacenter facility power consumption. Additionally, improvements in operational efficiency contribute to 3-year total cost of ownership (TCO) reduction of 50%.
Ensures data integrity and high availability
- "Shared Data" Designed for Database Consolidation and Management: The "Shared data” architecture provides the ultimate flexibility in data structure configuration allowing DBAs to tune for performance, security, and manageability while still deriving the benefits of consolidation and high availability.
- Shared Services Model: The leading Enterprise-wide consolidation platform for SQL Server that enables a standardized shared services model for better SLA achievement and easier cost allocations, all at a lower cost structure.
- High Availability for Mission-Critical Applications: Provides zero-downtime architecture for SQL Server databases that drastically reduces both planned and unplanned downtime.
Reduces the administration overhead
- Qualified and Supported Solution by Microsoft: Qualified and supported solution in Microsoft SQL Server Always On program, having met a set of SQL Server I/O requirements focused on reliability and high performance.
- Simplify Infrastructure Management: Reduce the time required to perform routine system and storage administration tasks by up to 75%. "One-Click" and “Roll-Through” maintenance pushes updates or hot fixes to all servers.
