HP Sizer for Microsoft SQL Server (2008 R2 Fast Track 3.0 – 2012 Fast Track 4.0) Data Warehouse is a planning and configuration tool from Hewlett-Packard that helps architects and DBAs design balanced, validated hardware configurations for Microsoft SQL Server Fast Track Data Warehouse deployments. Focused on the sequential I/O patterns typical of data warehousing, it aligns recommendations with Microsoft Fast Track guidelines and HP reference architectures.

The tool gathers key inputs such as target data volume and growth, workload characteristics (scan and load rates, concurrency), compression assumptions, and throughput objectives. It then produces right-sized recommendations for HP ProLiant servers and HP storage, including CPU and memory, disk type and count, RAID layout, controllers, and networking. Outputs typically include a detailed configuration report and a bill of materials to streamline procurement and implementation.

By automating complex sizing decisions, HP Sizer accelerates planning, reduces risk, and helps ensure predictable performance and cost efficiency for new deployments, upgrades, and refreshes of SQL Server 2008 R2 Fast Track 3.0 and SQL Server 2012 Fast Track 4.0 data warehouse solutions.
