EMC CLARiiON Virtual Provisioning provides additional benefits beyond traditional "thin" provisioning including simplified storage management and improved capacity utilization. CLARiiON Virtual Provisioning enables you to present a large amount of capacity to a host, then consume space - only as needed - from a shared pool. This lowers total cost of ownership by reducing initial overallocation of storage capacity and simplifies management by reducing the steps required to support growth.
