3PAR 2008 Annual Report Copy excerpt: 3PAR Utility Storage represents a new class of storage arrays designed to address the needs of a new type of datacenter based on a utility computing architecture. This highly-virtualized, utility-based approach is transforming datacenters and the way that IT organizations look at—and pay for—their data storage. Our 3PAR InServ® Storage Server family and innovative thin software technologies address the needs of this new datacenter with storage that is more efficient, more agile, and more resilient than traditional platforms. With our pioneering hardware and software products, 3PAR has disrupted the fundamental economics associated with primary storage systems to become a leader in delivering a more efficient and economical approach to storage: utility storage, designed for utility computing.
