    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 aptly calls the Instant-On Enterprise.Intel and the Intel logo are trademarks of Intel Corporation in the U.S. and/or other countries.

    Enterprises are turning to the Cloud to improve business agility, reduce expenses and accelerate business innovation. Cloud computing redefines the way IT assets are deployed and consumed and dramatically affects the way data center networks are architected and managed. Conventional hierarchical data center networks built to support traditional IT architectures can't meet the security, agility and price/performance requirements of virtualized cloud computing environments. This white paper reviews the impact of cloud computing on data center networks and describes HP's approach to building simpler, more secure and automated networks that fully meet the stringent performance, security, reliability and agility demands of the new data center in the Cloud.Intel and the Intel logo are trademarks of Intel Corporation in the U.S. and/or other countries.
