Use Cases

Do you require 100% uptime on your data center storage infrastructure without compromising performance, scale, or flexibility?

The HPE XP8 Storage array (Gen2) is the newest addition to the HPE XP storage family that has achieved 10-years of 100% data availability¹ across the entire installed base. There is no room to improve on 100%, but HPE XP8 is raising the bar by delivering industry leading 8-nines⁵ of availability, nearly assuring continued 100% availability well into the future.

Without compromise means HPE XP8 Gen2 provides unrivaled performance, scale and flexibility. In terms of performance,  HPE XP8 delivers over 33 million IOPs², well beyond competitors. HPE XP8 enables scalability up to 69 PB of internal capacity, and up to 255 PB of external virtual capacity. Flexibility to configure Hybrid or Flash, SAS or NVMe, HDD, SSD, FMD, or SCM. Newly added HW Compression Accelerator and Front-End FC NVMe adds even more performance, scale, and flexibility.

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.

Has your data center become an inflexible, monolithic, hard-wired, under-utilized collection of systems and complex processes that require excessive manpower to operate?

The Hewlett Packard Enterprise Converged Infrastructure (CI) delivers consolidation, modernization, shared services and business continuity initiatives by simplifying, consolidating and automating everything from the start. It provides mission-critical scalability and reliability for the most demanding applications and workloads, while supporting up to thirty-two 8 core Intel® Itanium® 9700 processors. The HPE Integrity Superdome 2 Server supports up to 8 TB of memory and has error correction code (ECC) and built-in redundancy, helping you take advantage of the performance benefits of Itanium processors.

Are you looking to equip your enterprise environment with the performance, reliability, and security needed for the most demanding workloads?

The HPE Superdome Flex 280 is a highly reliable server that starts at two and scales up to eight 3rd generation Intel® Xeon® Scalable processors. Its modular architecture scales cost-efficiently to meet future growth. Six UPI links per processor result in higher bandwidth and faster data rates than prior generations.¹ Designed to provide 64 GB to 24 TB of shared memory using DRAM or in combination with persistent memory, it is an ideal choice for real-time analytics. Extreme HPE Superdome RAS features such as advanced memory resiliency, firmware-first approach, analysis engine, and self-healing provide increased system uptime. Superior security, including support for Silicon Root of Trust, protects your critical workloads. As-a-service consumption with HPE GreenLake provides flexibility while maintaining on-premises control.

Are your data centers struggling to consolidate large workloads without compromising performance?

The HPE Synergy 480 Gen11 Compute module with 4th Generation Intel® Xeon® Scalable processors and 5th Generation Intel Xeon Scalable processors delivers exceptional performance, efficiency, and flexibility in a two-socket, half-height form factor to power demanding workloads. The compute module delivers more of everything with up to 64 cores, faster DDR5 memory, flexible storage controller options, and multiple I/O connectors. Designed to create a pool of flexible compute capacity within a composable infrastructure, the HPE Synergy 480 Gen11 Compute module is an ideal platform for enterprise workloads now and in the future.

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.

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.
