Use Cases

Does your data storage capacity outstrip your backup, disaster-recovery, and archive capability? Spectra T950 Tape Library combines field-proven reliability with storage innovation and gives you access to a full suite of enterprise storage capabilities. It delivers powerful library management, superior and proactive data integrity administration, and the outstanding total cost of ownership (TCO) for any tape solution. Once data expands beyond the limits of your initial Spectra T950 Tape Library configurations, you simply add expansion frames to keep growing. Storage can expand up to 120 drives and 10,020 Linear Tape-Open (LTO) slots (7,614 enterprise slots) in eight frames. With versatile built-in BlueScale software interface, you have intelligent command, control, and data integrity functionality at the touch of a screen. Spectra T950 Tape Library, with its compact footprint, is installed in many organizations worldwide to meet their backup, archive, and deep storage requirements.

Does your data storage capacity outstrip your backup, disaster recovery, and archive capability?

The Spectra TFinity ExaScale Tape Library delivers up to 2.53 exabytes (EB) of proven storage density packaged in a small footprint and offers scalability and speed to meet the requirements of the most demanding environments. Additional flexibility is provided through support of mixed media, both Linear Tape-Open (LTO) Technology and TS11xx technology, in the same library. Customers can also access and migrate data from legacy Oracle® T10000 media to both technologies. Using LTO technology, it can expand from 50 to 56,400 slots for 2.5 EB of compressed data. Using TS1170 technology, the library can expand from 45 to 42,930 slots for 6.45 EB of compressed data. The tape library can support up to 144 drives with transfer rates of 207.4 TB/hr (466.6 TB/hr compressed) using LTO-9 or support up to 144 drives with transfer rates of 207.4 TB/hr (466.6 TB/hr compressed) using TS1170 technology.

Most enterprises store diverse data types across multiple platforms, such as on-premises data centers, multiple clouds, and at the edge. Each environment becomes an independent silo that restricts access to the data and the insights they contain. This means slower time to modernize analytics and gain the insights that you need to innovate and drive your business.

The HPE GreenLake platform offers a fully managed, on-premises service containing an analytics-ready data fabric for hybrid environments. From a single management view, it allows you to set up, administer, and manage globally distributed data sets across edge-to-cloud deployments. It lowers risk by providing infrastructure in a pay-per-use model, while HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric modernizes analytics and data management, unifying different data types across on-premises, multi-cloud, and edge, and delivering seamless access to a trusted source of data.

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 the most capacity with uncompromising performance, security, and intelligence in a datacenter-friendly 2U rackmount server footprint?

The HPE Apollo 4200 Gen10 Plus System, like the other members of the HPE Apollo 4000 family, is specifically designed to unlock the business value of data stemming from digital transformation (DX) and data infrastructure modernization, at any scale, and with ideal economics. It is designed for both ends of the data-centric workload spectrum – from deeper data lakes and archives to performance-demanding machine learning (ML), data analytics, hyperconverged infrastructure, and cache-intensive workloads. The HPE Apollo 4200 Gen10 Plus System provides the data infrastructure foundation for any successful data-driven organization.

Do you need to improve the performance of your mission-critical systems and provide a higher level of technical support?

The HPE Foundation Software 2 is a required suite of technical support tools and utilities that enable HPE Mission Critical systems to run at improved performance with enhanced technical support. It delivers improved scale-up performance and can be scaled up to 32 sockets of X86 processors in Linux® environments. Included is a software tool for managing LSI RAID controllers from the operating system (OS). The suite also includes remote services and memory error manager logger that alert Hewlett Packard Enterprise when changes or errors occur and provide logger and hardware event notification.

The HPE Foundation Software 2 provides an enhanced error reporting log to highlight potential issues.

HPE InfoSight for Servers combines the machine learning and predictive analytics of HPE InfoSight with the health and performance monitoring of Active Health System (AHS) and HPE Integrated Lights Out (iLO) to optimize performance and predict and prevent problems. HPE InfoSight for Servers nearly eliminates wasted time and headaches by transforming how infrastructure is managed and supported. AHS is like a “flight recorder” for your server that provides continuous, proactive health monitoring and recording thousands of system parameters and diagnostic telemetry data 24x7 on the server. HPE InfoSight for Servers analyzes the telemetry data from AHS to derive insights from the behaviors of the install base to provide recommendations to resolve problems and improve performance. iLO Amplifier Pack functions as an on-premise aggregator and transmitter for HPE InfoSight for servers.
