Use Cases

HPE OneView for Microsoft Azure Log Analytics provides a bridge between Microsoft® cloud management services and Hewlett Packard Enterprise hardware infrastructure. It allows you to manage on-premises infrastructure with the same Microsoft tools used for cloud services. HPE OneView for Microsoft Azure Log Analytics brings visibility of the underlying Hewlett Packard Enterprise infrastructure, including hardware, firmware inventory, infrastructure health, status, long term event correlation, and trend analysis. Data is automatically collected from HPE OneView and HPE Synergy is processed using the Azure™ Log Analytics engine running in the Azure public cloud. Licensed as part of HPE OneView and HPE Synergy, HPE OneView for Microsoft Azure Log Analytics is highly extensible and customizable, allowing you to take advantage of cloud based management for your on-premises environment.

HPE Ezmeral Runtime Enterprise is an enterprise-grade container orchestration platform that is designed for the containerization of both cloud-native and non-cloud-native monolithic applications with persistent data. It deploys 100% open-source Kubernetes for orchestration, provides a state-of-the-art file system and data fabric for persistent container storage, and provides enterprises with the ability to deploy AI and Analytics workloads in containers. Enterprises can now easily extend the agility and efficiency benefits of containers to more of their enterprise applications—running on either bare-metal or virtualized infrastructure, on-premises, in multiple clouds, or at the edge.

Is your HPC networking solution able to meet your converged workload needs for today and tomorrow?

HPE Slingshot provides a modern, high-performance interconnect for HPC and AI clusters that delivers high-bandwidth and low-latency for HPC, ML, and analytics applications by bringing together the specialized requirements of HPC-optimized fabrics with the ubiquity of Ethernet. This delivers a converged infrastructure with high-performance on both HPC simulation codes and native IP applications, with efficient scalable access to data sources.

Building on Cray's specialized silicon, HPE Slingshot delivers consistent performance and low latency under load and at scale. This prepares you to efficiently service increasingly diverse users taking advantage of your HPC resources, and do so without overprovisioning bandwidth or deploying multiple systems to avoid congestion on your most demanding workloads.

Do you need to manage your Hewlett Packard Enterprise Converged Infrastructure with VMware®?

HPE OneView for VMware vCenter with Operations Manager and Log Insight seamlessly integrates the manageability features of HPE Synergy, HPE ProLiant servers, and HPE Virtual Connect with VMware solutions. You can gain deep insight and control of virtualized Hewlett Packard Enterprise Converged Infrastructure environments while reducing the time it takes to make important changes, increase capacity or manage planned and unplanned downtime. When used with the automation power of HPE OneView, best practices for Converged Infrastructure can be defined once and reused many times to provision an entire cluster with compute and storage fully configured in five easy steps.

Do you require 100% uptime on your data center storage infrastructure without compromising performance, scale, or flexibility?

The HPE XP8 Storage array (Gen2) is the newest addition to the HPE XP storage family that has achieved 10-years of 100% data availability¹ across the entire installed base. There is no room to improve on 100%, but HPE XP8 is raising the bar by delivering industry leading 8-nines⁵ of availability, nearly assuring continued 100% availability well into the future.

Without compromise means HPE XP8 Gen2 provides unrivaled performance, scale and flexibility. In terms of performance,  HPE XP8 delivers over 33 million IOPs², well beyond competitors. HPE XP8 enables scalability up to 69 PB of internal capacity, and up to 255 PB of external virtual capacity. Flexibility to configure Hybrid or Flash, SAS or NVMe, HDD, SSD, FMD, or SCM. Newly added HW Compression Accelerator and Front-End FC NVMe adds even more performance, scale, and flexibility.

Are your High Performance Compute (HPC) and AI environments struggling with file management?
HPE Data Management Framework 7 (DMF7) delivers centralized data management across HPC and AI storage systems and protects scalable, parallel file systems like Lustre and Spectrum Scale. Namespace reflection is used to create an independent snapshot of file system state, allowing you to recover file systems in a known good state. This system maintains file versions, allowing users to recover files from previous successful job runs.

HPE DMF7 automates data movement between tiers in a storage hierarchy, e.g. between flash and disk. Administrators and users can also use HPE DMF7 to move files between file systems, e.g. when files must be moved from storage that is being retired. HPE DMF7 improves utilization of expensive, high performance storage by automatically moving files to lower cost storage tiers, creating a virtual storage space that appears to scale beyond the physical capacity.

Is your storage slowing down your HPC compute cluster?

The Cray ClusterStor E1000 Storage System is purpose-engineered to meet the demanding input/output requirements of supercomputers and HPC clusters in a very efficient way. The E1000 parallel storage solution typically achieves the given HPC storage performance requirements, significantly reducing the number of storage drives. That means HPC users with a fixed budget for the HPC system can spend more of their budget on CPU/GPU compute nodes, accelerating time-to-insight. The E1000 Storage System embeds the open-source parallel file system Lustre to deliver this efficient performance. Hewlett Packard Enterprise provides enterprise-grade customer support in-house for Lustre that scales out (nearly) linearly, without software licensing for the file storage systems per terabyte capacity or per storage drive. This allows customers to reap the benefits of the open-source movement while getting enterprise-grade support.

Do you need a flexible and dense storage system for your scale-out object storage, archive, or data analytics solution?

The HPE Apollo 4510 Gen10 System offers revolutionary storage density in a 4U form factor that fits in Hewlett Packard Enterprise standard 1075 mm racks. It gives you the performance you need to run Big Data solutions such as object storage, data analytics, deep archive, or other data-intensive workloads, while also saving you valuable data center rack space. The HPE Apollo 4510 Gen10 System features support for dual Intel® Xeon® Processor Scalable Family processors, the full stack of HPE ProLiant management tools, and flexibility to configure with a variety of power, controller, and network interface options. It holds up to sixty large form factor (LFF) SAS or SATA drives, so there’s plenty of room for growth. And it also supports two hot-plug small form factor (SFF) SAS, SATA, or NVMe drives plus two internal M.2 NVMe drives for boot, caching, or hosting logs.
