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.

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.

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.

New workplace realities are challenging legacy assumptions about where, when, and how work gets done. Location and access-device flexibility are more important than ever, while the ability to deliver productivity and security are no less essential. The public cloud is one option but not when data sovereignty, privacy, performance, or security considerations require apps and data to remain on premises

When conducting business away from the office, workers may be using any type of tablet, smartphone, or PC trusted or not—as is typical in today’s bring-your-own-device, work-from-home environment. With virtual desktop infrastructure,you have no need to store confidential company data on a personal device that could easily be lost, stolen, or tampered with. HPE GreenLake for virtual desktop infrastructure offers inherently secure on-premises VDI, tailored to users’ needs that let you avoid high up-front costs, speed time to value, and scale seamlessly to align resources with demand

Are you looking for a way to automate protection of your hybrid cloud workloads so you can be sure that in the event of an outage, malicious activity, or cyber-attack, your data can be efficiently recovered? HPE GreenLake for Backup and Recovery, one of the SaaS offerings delivered via the HPE GreenLake Cloud Portal, provides this automated protection.

Protection Policies deliver automated protection based on your organization’s requirements, so you can be confident that your recovery SLA’s are met.

You will also appreciate the unmatched operational and storage efficiency of HPE GreenLake for Backup and Recovery, meaning your backups require less time to complete and require you to pay for less storage.

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 HPE Integrity Superdome 2 Server family based on a blade design, a common network fabric, comprehensive cross-domain control and advanced power and cooling management delivers a mainframe replacement. 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.
