Do you require 100% uptime on your data center storage infrastructure without compromising on other attributes such as performance, scale, and flexibility?

The HPE XP8 Storage array is the newest addition to the HPE XP storage family that has achieved 6-years of demonstrated 100% data availability¹ across the entire installed base. There is no room to improve on 100%, but XP8 is raising the bar by delivering industry leading 8-nines⁵ of platform availability, nearly assuring continued 100% availability well into the future.

Without compromise means that XP8 also provides unrivaled performance, scale and flexibility. In terms of performance, XP8 delivers over 20 million IOPs², well beyond the nearest competitor. XP8 enables scalability up to 69 petabytes of internal capacity, plus up to 255 PB of virtualized external capacity. Available in Hybrid or Flash, SAS or NVMe, HDD, SSD, FMD, or SCM, Entry or Performance configurations. Whatever your need, HPE XP8 has you covered.

Are you struggling to meet the I/O demands of hyperscale virtualization, cloud, or growing flash-based SANs?
HPE B-series SN3600B Fibre Channel Switch provides Gen6 32 Gb Fibre Channel (FC) in an ultra-dense 1U format from 8-ports up to 24-ports, and is affordable for limited budgets. It is capable of replacing three generations of FC with its backward compatibility with 4, 8, and 16 Gb 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 take advantage of NVMe over FC ready support as well. 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 3PAR software. Data reliability is enhanced with forward error correction (FEC) by automatically detecting and recovering bit error along with HPE Power Pack+ software maintains efficient SAN-health.

Is there a need to modernize your storage network? The all-flash data center and emerging NVMe storage requires a modern storage network that can keep up with pace of innovation seen with compute and storage resources. The HPE B-series SN6650B Fibre Channel Switch is a high-port density building block with 128 Fibre Channel ports that provides the tools to help optimize NVMe storage and automate SAN management tasks. It provides 32Gb SAN connectivity with up to 4 Tbps of total system bandwidth for data center consolidation and has one of the most demanding all-flash workloads. New automation capabilities enable DevOps resources to automate operations to increase productivity with simple and open automation through open APIs and the Ansible automation engine. The HPE B-series SN6650B Fibre Channel Switch enables new insight into NVMe storage fabrics with modern I/O traffic visibility and VM-level granularity to validate and fine-tune performance for better efficiency.

How can I simplify the complex storage deployments at my edge data centers?

StorMagic, paired with HPE ProLiant, HPE Apollo or HPE Edgline servers, provides a virtual SAN for edge computing that is a lightweight alternative to overly complex storage deployments. The two-server solution is designed for large companies running small edge datacenters that require rugged, small footprint, highly available, simple, cost-effective, and flexible local storage.

StorMagic SvSAN removes the need for a physical SAN in some of the world’s most demanding environments by converting the disk, flash, and memory of two servers into a virtual SAN.

Typical distributed IT operations using StorMagic are retail stores, factories, warehouses, wind farms, or oil rigs. In these deployments, SvSAN enables small hyperconverged clusters with a differentiated level of simplicity and affordability.

Are you faced with providing users fast, secure access to the corporate file system from wherever they’re working?
Like many dispersed organizations, are you considering combining NAS and IT footprint as your organization shifts from corporate sites to branch and remote offices?
CTERA and Hewlett Packard Enterprise partner to enable centralized data access from any edge location or device without compromising performance or security. The joint CTERA and HPE platform is the only solution to unify file infrastructure across headquarters, branch, and home.
The integration of CTERA’s cloud-native file storage platform and HPE infrastructure provides high-performance primary file storage, backup/disaster recovery, multisite file collaboration and edge caching, all for up to 70% less than traditional NAS and file storage.
The joint solution enables global file system access through edge filers (physical and virtual), laptop and mobile apps, and HPE’s hyper converged infrastructure.

Are your life sciences, financial services, and artificial intelligent (AI) compute workloads bottlenecked by slow storage performance? HPE Solutions for Weka is a scalable data platform that is ideal for performance-intensive workloads. The Weka Limitless Data Platform is built on WekaFS, a flash-native, POSIX file system that delivers the high IOPS and low-latency throughput needed for demanding compute requirements. The platform provides policy-based tiering, so data can span from NVMe flash to object storage in a single namespace for easy management and cost-effective economics. It supports industry-standard S3 interface that allows integration with on-premises and cloud environments. For performance-intensive workloads such as AI, machine learning, deep learning, data analytics, life sciences, and financial modeling, the Weka Limitless Data Platform employs an innovative storage architecture to provide performance at exabyte scale to solve today’s biggest data-intensive problems.

Data is growing at an unprecedented pace in the enterprise. IDC expects that we will see nearly 79 zettabytes of data by 2025 coming from machines, sensors and cameras¹. This growth is offering businesses everywhere new opportunities to innovate. Many technological advancements in IoT, computing and machine learning have made this far easier than before. But the challenge we keep hearing from customers is that deriving those insights from their data is held back because of their infrastructure. With much of the new data being unstructured and collected at a scale and speed never seen before, the existing infrastructure just cannot cope up with it. As a result, IT needs a new infrastructure solution to support these data-driven initiatives.

HPE Solutions for Qumulo effectively addresses your growing unstructured data needs – scale and manage billions of files with instant control at lower cost and high performance, on-prem, off-prem, or spanning both – now and into the future.
