Does your HPC/AI environment need virtual GPU (vGPU) capability?

The NVIDIA® vGPU and Virtual Compute Server (vCS) Software enables the NVIDIA GPU to be virtualized to accelerate compute-intensive server workloads such as AI, deep learning (DL), machine learning, and HPC. Grid provides graphics at scale across the enterprise with GPUs for exceptional productivity, security, and IT manageability by delivering powerful virtual experience from the data center or cloud to any device. vCS provides accelerated GPU virtualization and GPU sharing/segmentation for multiple virtual machines (VMs) by a single GPU, maximizing allocation for AI/DL intensive workloads. vCS provides bare metal performance with operational savings, costs, and improved manageability of VMs. By making GPU performance possible for every virtual machine (VM), vGPU technology enables users to work more efficiently and productively from the data center to the cloud.

Do you have infrastructure that spans across different Hewlett Packard Enterprise platforms, data centers, or even countries?

HPE OneView Global Dashboard allows you to manage up to 75 HPE OneView or HPE Synergy instances, and 20,000 servers across data centers. It helps your IT staff troubleshoot alerts and view core inventory data from one place and make more informed, faster decisions with better infrastructure visibility. With single sign-on, you are one click away from powerful, device-level lifecycle management. At no additional cost, you can simply download and run HPE OneView Global Dashboard alongside HPE OneView, allowing you to see your HPE ProLiant servers, HPE Synergy, HPE BladeSystem, HPE Apollo, HPE SimpliVity, HPE 3PAR, HPE Primera, HPE Superdome and HPE Superdome FLEX systems as one infrastructure.

Wouldn’t it be easier if you could manage multiple simultaneous installations using multiple releases of HP-UX?

Simplify and speed up your HP-UX installation while gaining additional recovery capabilities with HPE Ignite-UX. With this administrative toolset you can manage simultaneous installations on a variety of server blades and systems. You can also create custom configurations and recovery media.

Do you think you have to trade-off performance for manageability when using a filesystem?

With HPE OnlineJFS/Veritas Filesystem (VxFS) you can have manageability and performance. OnlineJFS/VxFS offers a simple and flexible tool that enables you to manage your environment dynamically. HPE OnlineJFS/Veritas Filesystem 6.1 minimize downtime, optimize data at right time and optimal cost. Furthermore with HPE OnlineJFS/Veritas Filesystem 6.1, prioritize specific application I/O for faster throughputs of critical applications, faster resynchronization of data bases using snapshots with optimal storage space requirements allowing you to better manage you business.

Do you need to increase your server utilization while increasing flexibility to get the most out of your existing servers?

Deploy HP-UX vPars and Integrity VM v6 to consolidate multiple workloads onto a single HPE Integrity server or hard partition (nPartition). Enhance your resource utilization and isolate workloads with unique operating systems, applications, resources and users. Use vPar guests for workloads requiring high performance, scalability, predictable resourcing and dynamic resource migration. Use Integrity VM guests for shared CPU, dynamic resource optimization and online mobility.

Are you spending too much time and money on server updates? The Service Pack for ProLiant (SPP) and Smart Update Manager (SUM) combine to create the Hewlett Packard Enterprise Smart Update Technology to solve the problem of time-consuming, expensive, and error-prone updates. The SPP is an comprehensive collection of firmware, drivers, and system software tested together as a single solution stack used for updating your HPE ProLiant servers, HPE Synergy, and HPE BladeSystem infrastructures. The SPP Custom Download allows you to reduce the size of the SPP by excluding firmware and drivers for operating systems and server models that are not needed. Select the SPP Custom Download to begin creating your custom service pack update. With the SPP, Hewlett Packard Enterprise tests the firmware, driver, and system software updates, so you don't have to. Together the SPP and SUM perform online updates 3X faster with 93% less downtime. [1]

Are you a HPE OneView or HPE iLO Amplifier Pack customer who needs to update your server?

The Smart Update Tools (SUT) are a SUM extension that enables HPE OneView and HPE iLO Amplifier Pack to stage, schedule and apply updates automatically to reduce IT operations.

SUT is an operating system (OS) utility that provides the ability to perform online firmware and/or driver updates via the HPE iLO management network without the need for OS credentials.

SUT supports Windows®, Linux® (Red Hat® and SUSE®), and VMware ESXi™.

FlashSoft® software from SanDisk enables solid-state storage in the server (NVMe, PCIe, SAS or SATA) to enhance storage performance with full compatibility with currently deployed SAN storage systems. The software automatically places applications’ most frequently accessed data on the flash device in the server and keeps the data fully synchronized with the underlying storage. This cost-effective, high-performance flash solution improves application performance, virtualization capability, and storage efficiency without requiring any changes to existing applications or data center processes.

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, HPE BladeSystem, HPE Virtual Connect and HPE Storage 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. Integrations with VMware vRealize Operations, Orchestrator, and Log Insight deliver powerful analytics, automation, and deeper troubleshooting tools to your VMware administrators.
