HPE 3PAR Third Party Maintenance & Support

With Park Place Technologies, you can prolong the life of your HPE equipment past its warranty or end of service life. Get direct access to Park Place Technologies 3PAR support with our HPE server maintenance.

Originally introduced by 3PAR in 2003, 3PAR storage systems are designed specifically for virtual and cloud environments. Their inherent architecture supports flexibility and operational efficiency. This functionality made 3PAR an extremely popular company before it was purchased by HP in 2010. Since then, 3PAR storage users, which are generally government agencies, enterprise-class organizations and cloud vendors, have had to depend on HP support for many maintenance functions.

This presents a few key challenges because HP is capable of providing high-quality service, but it does so expensively. For cloud vendors, this can hurt the bottom line. Service providers have to find the ideal balance between maintaining older hardware and turning to new systems that will be covered by a warranty. Many OEMs use expensive support services to push customers to upgrade before they need to. Park Place Technologies’ 3PAR support is an ideal alternative to OEM storage support, providing superior services at a lower cost while extending the life of systems.
