Storage

Data powers the insights, innovation, and competitive advantages that move businesses forward and faster. Yet while data-driven modernization is a top priority, achieving it requires confronting a host of data storage challenges that slow you down: lack of performance, scalability limitations, and management complexity.

HPE Alletra Storage MP X10000 is a unique, software-defined, scale-out data system that consolidates a high performance all-flash object storage service, exabyte-scale capacity, and easy management, for data-intensive initiatives, like data lakes, digital repositories, and backup with flash-accelerated recovery. The HPE Alletra Storage MP X10000 takes advantage of an advanced disaggregated multiprotocol architecture, which makes it possible for you to scale from terabytes to exabytes on the same hardware. Cost savings are provided through the ability to efficiently scale capacity and performance independently.

HPE Storage Ethernet Switch H-series SN8325H half-width switches help organizations balance density, high availability, and affordability which helps to save space and costs on server, storage, and HCI connectivity. They can be used in data centers, edge locations, or containers where space is at a premium (for example, retail locations, healthcare facilities, media, financial, and enterprise branches).

In today's data-driven world, where both the value and protection of data are paramount, IT organizations face increasing pressure to ensure their systems are secure, reliable, and efficient. The challenge lies not only in securing continuous, non-stop access to data but also in optimizing critical applications and resources to improve productivity. To address these demands, a simple and always-on infrastructure is essential—one that supports high throughput and low-latency requirements for critical applications. HPE Storage Fibre Channel Switch B-series SN3700B is key to helping organizations meet these challenges. By integrating this robust, high-performance network into their storage ecosystem, small and mid-sized businesses can effectively handle large volumes of data with minimal overhead. This enables faster decision making, improved operational efficiency, and a competitive edge, all without the complexity or cost typically associated with large enterprise-level solutions.

Would you like to visualize, manage, and analyze SAN performance and overall operational health intelligently?
As organizations race to modernize the data center to support innovation and digital transformation, storage networks are evolving faster to accommodate the new applications. Administrators, therefore, need ways to visualize and manage SAN health and performance efficiently. HPE SANnav Management Software is the next-gen SAN management application suite for HPE B-series Fibre Channel SAN environments. It consists of SANnav Management Portal Software and SANnav Global View Software. SANnav Management Portal builds the foundation for an autonomous SAN with a modernized and simple browser-based UI to monitor and streamline common workflows, such as configuration, zoning, deployment, troubleshooting, and reporting. SANnav Global View enables visualization of health, performance, and inventory of multiple SANnav Management Portal instances using a simple yet intelligent dashboard.

HPE Library and Tape Tools is a free, downloadable, and robust diagnostic tool for all Hewlett Packard Enterprise tape storage products. Provided for untrained administrators as well as experienced professionals, it is ideal for customers who want to verify their installation, facilitate product reliability, perform their own diagnostics, and achieve faster resolution of tape device issues. HPE Library and Tape Tools performs firmware upgrades, verification of device operation, failure analysis, and a range of utility functions. Performance tools assist in troubleshooting bottlenecks and system configuration checks warn of common host issues. It also provides seamless integration with Hewlett Packard Enterprise support by generating and e-mailing test results and support tickets. Our support desk will require the use of this product to troubleshoot most device issues, so it is recommended that a support ticket is pulled and the device assessment test is run before calling.

The HPE Storage SAN Extension Switch B-series SN2600B is a cost-efficient, replication connectivity solution that quickly transports data over long distances between data centers, protecting valuable information from disruptions and outages. This product enables you to extend proactive monitoring between data centers to automatically detect WAN anomalies and avoid unplanned downtime. By driving more throughput with advanced compression technology, you can expand WAN capacity to meet increased data demands.
With powerful built-in technology, the HPE Storage SAN Extension Switch B-series SN2600B overcomes the inherent challenges of latency and packet loss over distance, and can dramatically speed up replication performance to handle the unrelenting transfer of data between data centers.

Are you struggling to meet the I/O demands of hyperscale virtualization, cloud, or growing flash-based SANs?
HPE Storage Fibre Channel Switch B-series SN3600B provides Gen6 32Gb Fibre Channel (FC) in an ultra-dense 1U format from 8-ports up to 24-ports, and is affordable for limited budgets. It can replace three generations of FC with its backward compatibility with 4, 8, and 16Gb FC for your investment protection. Designed to build a flash-ready infrastructure, it specifically adapts to business application needs. Applications requiring more throughput and lower latency can also take advantage of NVMe over FC ready support. SAN simplicity is achieved with a simple 3-step install process and SAN deployments with HPE 3PAR all-flash storage are automated using HPE Smart SAN for HPE 3PAR software. Data reliability is enhanced with forward error correction (FEC) by automatically detecting and recovering bit error along with HPE Power Pack+ software, which maintains efficient SAN-health.
