As 3PAR is integrated into HP, there is a lot of new stuff to for us to figure out. One of the most important concepts at HP is Converged Infrastructure (CI). The basic idea of CI is to maximize a customer's investement in technology by consolidating resources in common, modular building blocks. 3PAR customers are already accustomed to the idea from with our InServ storage systems, but CI goes far beyond 3PAR's storage vision by including server and network technologies. It's a big idea with huge implications for product engineering, manufacturing, maintenance and support – and it raises the importance of software in data center solutions.
