Bangalore: HP has introduced a comprehensive edge-to-core networking portfolio that delivers an alternative to the marketplace in terms of technology, energy efficiency and total cost of ownership. The new HP networking portfolio combines HP pro curve and 3com and will provide an advanced network fabric and at a 65 percent lower total cost of ownership, according to the company. The company also announced that its newest internal datacenter will run completely on HP networking products, further demonstrating the scalability and mission-critical properties of the newly combined networking portfolio. The portfolio is a cornerstone of the HP converged infrastructure strategy, which eliminates silos of servers, storage and networking to create virtual pools of resources designed to optimally run business services. Fabbi, Vice President and Distinguished Analyst,said, "The combination of increasing expectations for a more agile infrastructure to meet rapidly changing business demands and the more challenging economic climate requires fresh innovation, strong alternatives and a more business-centric approach to network design." The HP networking portfolio allows clients to eliminate redundant equipment by integrating wired and wireless environments with security from the edge to core. To further drive complexity out of client operations, HP delivers "single pane of glass" management to configure, deploy and monitor the network. This enables common policy management, reduces human error and creates a consistent user experience across access mediums.
