SAN/iQ aggregates disparate resources into a single, larger storage system. In addition, SAN/iQ provides IT project solutions,
including disaster recovery, business continuance, and data center virtualization. Application solutions including data protection
manager, exchange server, sharepoint server, SQL server, and VMware. Industry solutions for education, government, financial
services, and healthcare industry. As of November 13, 2008, LeftHand Networks Inc. operates as a subsidiary of Hewlett-Packard
Company.

High availability of data is achieved with the HP/LeftHand Networks IP SAN solution. SAN iQ will automate the redundancy; provide
easy upgrades to storage capacity and any addition to the capacity of the storage modules. Expansion of existing storage volumes
does not cause any user disruption or downtime. What separates the LeftHand Networks IP SAN from those offering similar iSCSI
SAN Solutions is, Thin Provisioning 2.0 for SAN/iQ.

Thin Provisioning 2.0 eliminates the pre-allocated storage resources for various volumes and application servers. SAN volumes are
"shrink-wrapped" and the software layer automatically allocates storage as needed. Bottom line...using SAN/IQ and Thin
Provisioning 2.0 will allow more of the available capacity to be used for whatever data you add. Greatly increasing your Return on
Investment (ROI) without comprising taking a performance hit to do so.

You can build your SAN without impacting end-users, by enabling you to schedule instantaneous snapshots of storage volumes, and
backup data from the snapshot volume. This way, your users have continuous access to the original volume without affecting
performance. The LeftHand snapshot capability eliminates the backup window, and removes backup traffic from your LAN and
offloads backup processing from application servers.

You can manage a single storage system while resizing volumes, taking snapshots, making remote copies, taking storage nodes
down for upgrades or maintenance, and even scaling the SAN - all without taking the system offline or affecting data availability.
Another feature of our storage nodes is that each storage node incorporates their own controllers. Adding more of them to a cluster
increases performance and redundancy along with the added storage capacity. Your benefit is eliminating the performance
bottlenecks associated with legacy SAN technologies.

Open iSCSI SANs

An iSCSI SAN can be composed of a single cluster of storage nodes or multiple clusters in different locations. Because LeftHand
SANs are open, they can be composed of clusters containing different drive technologies (SAS or SATA) and different physical
hardware platforms (NSM, HP or IBM). You don't get locked into a proprietary architecture. You can also integrate a virtual storage
network, comprised of VMware® ESX servers using LeftHand's Virtual Storage Appliance (VSA). All managed together in the same
SAN from a single pane of glass.
Data Storage Systems, Inc. (DSS, Inc.) is a systems integrator of storage area
networking solutions and is a authorized Value Added Reseller (VAR) for
HP/LeftHand Networks. DSS, Inc. offers first in class services such as design,
implemenation and on-site installation. For more information please call our sales

The HP/LeftHand Networks iSCSI SANs are composed of multiple storage nodes,
pooled together into a single storage system, integrated storage systems and virtual
storage systems. HP/LeftHand Networks is primarily a software company that
developed a data storage application, SAN/iQ.
