How is your enterprise responding to the digital transformation? Are your data centers under pressure to deliver greater performance, agility and operational efficiency to address data growth and dynamic business demands?
The HPE Network Orchestrator modernizes the storage network enabling businesses to increase productivity, scale and improve the efficiency of their storage investments. SAN configurations are often tedious and prone to human-errors and often in multi-protocol environments. Delivering automation, orchestration and fabric services empowers administrators to provision storage error-free and arrange fabric services for increasing fabric resiliency. HPE Network Orchestrator delivers protocol agnostic, fabric configuration validation with Single Point of Connectivity Knowledge (SPOCK), assessing the health of physical ports with self-healing, fabric monitoring, while performing end-to-end diagnostics, using predefined templates to reduce configuration errors.
HPE Data Center Network Manager software (DCNM) is the recommended management system for C-series Unified Fabric. It helps customers provision, monitor, and troubleshoot data center network infrastructure. It provides visibility and control of the unified data center, enabling service providers and IT departments to optimize for the quality of service (QoS) required to meet service-level agreements (SLAs) for internal and external customers. It also increases overall data center infrastructure up-time and reliability, thus improving business continuity. Focused on supporting efficient operations and management of virtual machine-aware (VM-aware) fabrics, DCNM provides a robust framework and comprehensive feature set that meets the routing, switching, and storage administration needs of present and future virtualized data centers.

Are you looking for a solution to maximize uptime in your datacenter, address SAN issues before they impact operations and simplify SAN management ?
HPE B-series Fabric Vision Software for HPE B-series Switches and Directors provides unprecedented visibility and insight across the storage network and helps maximize uptime and simplify SAN management. Offering innovative diagnostic, monitoring, and management capabilities, Fabric Vision Software helps administrators address problems before they impact operations, accelerate new application deployments, and dramatically reduce operational costs
ISL Trunking delivers high performance enhanced trunking capabilities by aggregating up to four ISLs into a single logical 8 Gb Fibre Channel link. This license logically groups up to four e-ports to provide a high bandwidth Trunk between two switches. The switch operating system views the Trunk as a single, high bandwidth resource (up to 8 Gb) when routing connections between switches. Connections are load-balanced across the individual links, which comprise the logical trunk group. Each 16-port switch can have four separate 4-port Trunk groups. The result is improved performance, increased high availability, and simplified network design and management.
Are your storage requirements and demands constantly moving? Can’t keep up with the ups and downs of allocation, capacity and performance across your network? You need storage that can handle anything you throw at it and you need the storage to keep running while you make these continual changes. HPE 3PAR Data Optimization Software Suite lets you react quickly and effectively to changing application and infrastructure needs while your users remain online and productive.
With the Data Optimization Software Suite for HPE 3PAR StoreServ Storage you have the freedom to configure, optimize, reconfigure for improved control, efficiency and effectiveness all without disturbing your users or applications. This suite rebalances, redistributes and refreshes storage non-disruptively with features that provide autonomic storage tiering, dynamic data mobility, assured performance for your most mission critical applications, reducing cost and increasing agility in multi-tenant environments.
HPE 3PAR Online Import Software gets customers to a modern Tier 1 storage solution effortlessly. Move data from HPE EVA Storage, EMC Storage, HDS Storage, or IBM Storage to HPE 3PAR StoreServ, a family of products that delivers a multi-tenant, federated solution designed for virtualized or cloud environments.
Using the HPE EVA Command View as the orchestration platform, 3PAR Online Import Software enables the migration of data from a source HPE EVA Storage to a destination HPE 3PAR StoreServ Storage. It enables direct data migration, without adding additional impact to host services.
Using the 3PAR Online Import Utility as the orchestration platform, 3PAR Online Import Software migrates data from legacy storage to a destination 3PAR StoreServ Storage array, without adding additional impact to host services.
Whether you are moving from HPE EVA Storage, EMC Storage, HDS Storage, or IBM Storage 3PAR Online Import Software saves CAPEX on technology refreshes with 3PAR Thin Technologies.
Storage Area Networks and the tools that are used to manage them have become increasingly complex. SAN administrators spend more time in configuration tasks – tedious manual activities which can potentially result in unplanned downtime. The reasons for the complexity include the increased adoption of Virtualization – a complexity stemming from mapping the virtual and physical layers of the SAN and the adoption of multiple protocols - iSCSI, FC and FCoE. HPE Smart SAN for 3PAR makes SAN configuration and management simple and error-free through intelligent automation. It is a protocol agnostic application embedded in SAN components that enables the 3PAR to orchestrate configuration, settings and policies in a HPE StoreFabric SAN. HPE Smart SAN’s Target Driven Peer Zoning enables you to configure zones accurately in minutes and not in hours and its automatic discovery mechanism creates a powerful platform which would enable real-time diagnostics and SAN analysis for more resiliency.
HPE 3PAR Peer Motion Software enables Storage Federation and is the first non-disruptive, do-it-yourself data migration and load balancing tool for enterprise storage.
With Peer Motion, HPE 3PAR StoreServ customers can load balance I/O workloads across systems at will, perform technology refresh seamlessly, cost-optimize asset lifecycle management, and lower technology refresh capital expenditure.
Unlike traditional block migration approaches, Peer Motion enables customers to migrate storage volumes between any HPE 3PAR StoreServ models online, non-disruptively, and without complex planning or dependency on extra tools. Peer Motion leverages HPE 3PAR StoreServ Thin Built In™ technology to power the simple and rapid inline conversion of inefficient, “fat” volumes on source arrays to more efficient, higher-utilization “thin” volumes on the destination system. 3PAR Management Console orchestrates all stages of the data migration lifecycle to ensure data migration is simple and fool-proof.
Extended Fabrics delivers all of the scalability, reliability and performance benefits of Fibre Channel SANs beyond the native 10 km distance specified by the Fibre Channel standard. With Extended Fabrics, SAN fabric coverage can be increased to 100 kilometers at full bandwidth to campuses, Metropolitan Area Networks, and backup sites. It also increases high availability by providing long-distance backup support to ensure business continuance and disaster recovery. This component is required with the use of Very Long Distance SFPs and/or wavelength division multiplexing (WDM or DWDM).
