- Extends storage federation across data centers allowing customers to set up a highly available IT infrastructure without compromising on business continuity.
- Enables a highly available, completely redundant storage system infrastructure within a datacenter where a pair of any 3PAR StoreServ systems in a Peer Persistence relationship can provide continuous access to data even when one of the storage systems have a planned or unplanned downtime.
- Allows customers to use both their primary and secondary sites actively thereby enabling a much efficient usage model for their IT infrastructure.
- Provides federated high availability on top of the existing 3PAR Remote Copy infrastructure without the need for any additional hardware or appliance.
HPE 3PAR Peer Persistence software allows companies to federate their 3PAR StoreServ Storage systems across geographically separated data centers. This inter-site federation of storage allows customers to use their data centers more effectively by allowing them to move applications from one site to another as per their business need, and more importantly, without any application downtime. Peer Persistence leverages the robust high availability solutions already available on HPE 3PAR StoreServ systems, and extends it even further by enabling a peer relationship between two 3PAR StoreServ Storage systems located at geographically separated sites. Peer Persistence enables failover/failback between two sites/data centers to be transparent to hosts and without any disruption to applications running on them. Peer Persistence is deployed with Remote Copy without the need for any additional hardware or appliance.
