  HP AppSystem has pre-integrated technology stack including a specifically-optimized hardware configuration, factory pre-loaded OS and tailored consulting and HP Solution Support services. This solution delivers system performance and

  reduces implementation from months to hours. (Study guide p.12) 40GB Blade networking connections HP provides 40GB downlinks on blade servers, to deliver very fast, near-real time, performance, ideal for high performance clusters or

  financial services applications. (Study guide p.18)

  HP 3PAR Thin Persistence software, and other thin-reclamation solutions, enables thin-provisioned storage on HP 3PAR StoreServ arrays to stay thin over time by ensuring that unused capacity is reclaimed for use by the array on an ongoing basis. (Study guide p.15)

  HP Memristor (Study guide p.15)

  Memristor devices are intended for applications in nanoelectronic memories and computer logic, as a replacement for Flash, SSD, and DRAM. The device provides a more efficient form of memory that can retain its information even when it

  loses power.

  It will significantly outperform flash memory, holding its memory longer. It is simpler, easier to make, which means it's cheaper, and it can be switched a lot faster, with less energy.

• Question 13:

  A customer is currently using an older storage technology. The customer would like to move to HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage, but is worried about the business disruption that moving to a new storage system might cause. Which HP services would you suggest? (Select two.)

  A. HP Data Migration
  B. HP Storage Impact Analysis
  C. HP 3PAR Storage Assessment
  D. Proactive Care 24 x 7
  E. HP 3PAR Health Check
  A. HP Data Migration
  D. Proactive Care 24 x 7

  HP Proactive Care with 24x7 cover would minimize unplanned down time and pay for itself.(Study guide p.28)

• Question 14:

  You are meeting with a customer to discuss a server solution. According to the server opportunity timeline, how should you begin the conversation?

  A. Ask about the customer's budget.
  B. Ask about the customers general impression of HP solutions.
  C. Ask whether the customer is considering other vendors.
  D. Ask about the customer's business needs and goals.
  D. Ask about the customer's business needs and goals.

  Reducing Complexity and IT Sprawl: By collapsing workflow steps and saving administrative time with key tasks, enterprises can accelerate key technology projects.

  Embracing cloud computing: While the cloud provides an elastic and scalable infrastructure for enterprise applications, migrating to the cloud from on-site servers can introduce several challenges, such as code changes. (Study guide p.33)

• Question 16:

  A medium-sized research company is considering an HP StoreOnce solution. Which feature distinguishes this HP solution from the competition?

  A. Virtualization that extends even to entry level storage solutions
  B. A thick provisioned memory cluster that protects customers' data
  C. Support for direct connectivity to servers with Converged Network Adapters (CNAs)
  D. deduplicate data on application servers or backup servers before it is transferred to a centralized HP StoreOnce Backup system
  D. deduplicate data on application servers or backup servers before it is transferred to a centralized HP StoreOnce Backup system

• Question 18:

  

  Converged Infrastructure is designed to solve many of the problems that affect traditional data centers. Which statement describes a common problem with traditional data centers?

  A. Data centers are using two-tier architectures, which were designed to meet the needs of legacy client-server applications.
  B. The IT infrastructure is compartmentalized into technology silos, making it difficult for IT to manage and change
  C. Companies are relying more heavily on monolithic mainframes, decreasing the overall performance of the data center.
  D. Bandwidth costs are increasing more rapidly than power and cooling costs, slowing the adoption of new bandwidth-intensive applications.
  B. The IT infrastructure is compartmentalized into technology silos, making it difficult for IT to manage and change

  ---

  Traditional IT Infrastructure: (Study guide p.22)

  Dedicated technology silos and lots of components created for peak capacity to meet each individual need

  

  Compartmentalized with few standards that crossed multiple silos

  

  Often requiring dedicated power, cooling, management and support in order to upgrade

  

  Cost of maintenance continues to increase, while adding more complexity and reducing time spent on innovation

  

• Question 19:

  What is one way that the implementation of HP Converged Infrastructure will benefit a company's data center?
