Overview:
Enterprises around the world are racing to capture business data from every possible source in hopes of identifying new opportunities and competitive advantage. The resulting explosion of data is creating many new challenges for IT. As business demands intensify, IT organizations are wrestling with how to manage database growth while reducing costs and maintaining business continuity. A unified tiered storage architecture
can help IT efficiently store, manage, and communicate information according to its business value and achieve regulatory compliance over time. The case for implementing tiered storage infrastructure is apparent; at issue are the tactics used for design and implementation.

HP and Oracle have complementary strategies to help you address your data management challenges. The HP Adaptive Infrastructure strategy uses standard building blocks, automated with modular software, to
establish a supply chain for IT services that can be allocated in real time based on business priorities. The Oracle Grid Computing architecture dovetails with the HP Adaptive Infrastructure, enabling data partitioning and archiving that optimize online business processing while ensuring reliability, security, and accessibility for all users.
