Company profile

The HP Storage Solution Center (SSC) in Colorado offers a world-class showcase for storage-focused customer briefings and technical consulting for customers from every part of the globe. With nearly 1.5 PB of storage capacity, the center boasts one of the largest known storage area networks. Although more complex than some enterprise data centers, the HP SSC has similar requirements for high availability, manageability, and adaptability. It also has limited headcount to manage the center’s many devices.

Business need


  • Expand reach, reduce costs, and increase customer satisfaction
  • With scant dedicated human resources, arrange demonstrations and tours for both actual and virtual customer visits
  • Manage a large, complex, heterogeneous data center with many devices and few/dwindling human resources
  • Address how the lack of training, products, and travel budgets forces system architects to find new ways to design solutions

Solution overview

  • HP Instant Support Enterprise Edition integrated with HP Systems Insight Manager and HP Storage Essentials Enterprise Suite to support/manage multivendor servers, storage arrays, and operating systems
  • Dedicated demonstration area comprising a small storage area network (SAN) with HP storage and server solutions
  • HP virtualization technology to facilitate virtual tours, demonstrations, and consultations with customers and HP consultants worldwide
  • High availability services to keep the infrastructure operational 24x365

  • Ensure standard interface to customers and partners
  • Shorten the sales cycle and increase sales efficiency
  • Increase the visibility and onsite visit volume of the HP Solutions Centers

  • Improve performance, functionality, and capacity; simplify solution center management
  • Provide service and access 24x365 on a worldwide basis, increasing utilization and ROI
