Do you need a data-center-on-chip platform to deliver better performance for your HPC/edge environments?
The HPE Data Processing Unit is a cloud infrastructure processor that governs the offloading, acceleration, and isolation of tasks like networking, storage, security and management to improve efficiency and performance. This series features two default operating modes: DPU and SuperNIC. By leveraging DPU mode, a data center-to-business application separation is created, resulting in a zero trust infrastructure with customized operations and an overall reduction in the total cost of ownership. In SuperNIC mode, the DPU too runs as an enhanced solution for east to west traffic in GPU systems, enabling accelerated networking for AI computing. SuperNICs support workloads in power-efficient, low-profile designs and can provide superb AI workload efficiency through proven RoCE. Utilize the HPE Data Processing Unit for consistent and predictable performance for accelerating AI computing.
Do your high performance computing (HPC) or artificial intelligence (AI) workloads need improved performance to enable research and development? HPE InfiniBand XDR Adapters deliver extremely fast, efficient network connectivity, significantly enhancing system performance for AI factories and cloud data center environments. The HPE InfiniBand XDR Adapters include single-port and dual-port options. The single-port adapters are offered in InfiniBand XDR speeds (800 Gb/s) and ethernet (2x400GbE) with OSFP connectors. The dual-port adapters are offered in InfiniBand XDR (400 Gb/s) and ethernet (400GbE) enabled with QSFP112 connectors. They seamlessly integrate with next-gen NVIDIA networking platforms, providing up to 800 Gb/s of end-to-end connectivity.
Is your data center poised to take the 16 Gb step in Fibre Channel (FC) connectivity?
The growth in enterprise flash storage and the deployment of servers with multi-core processors is driving the need for high performance storage networking to prevent application performance bottlenecks. The FC Host Bus Adapter (HBA) is a critical element of this storage network to improve storage performance.
The HPE SN1200E 16Gb Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapters deliver the high bandwidth, low latency and high IOPs to meet any application requirements, from online transaction processing or data warehousing to backup/restore and OpenStack Cinder block storage.
Supporting higher virtual machine density on powerful host servers, the SN1200E 16Gb HBAs delivers increased ROI on enabling more applications and virtual machines to run on a single server and I/O port without impacting SLAs. The 16 Gb FC HBA is backward compatible with 8 and 4 Gb FC storage networks to protect legacy investments.
When your environment has multiple workloads across multiple physical servers, how will you optimize your data?
The HPE SN1620E 32Gb Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter is the server connection to the Storage Area Network (SAN). Database applications, high volume virtual server configurations and traditional data protection benefit from high bandwidth, low latency, and high I/Os delivered on a SAN. The growth in enterprise flash storage and the deployment of servers with multi-core processors is driving the need for high performance storage networking to prevent application operation gridlocks. The FC host bus adapter (HBA) is a critical element of this storage network to improve storage performance. The HBA offers flexibility and investment protection by supporting two generations of older infrastructure like FC Switches and Directors and two generations of newer infrastructure. This level of investment protection is critical when the buying cycles of servers and storage differ.
Are you looking for an upgrade path to improve Storage Area Network performance for your ProLiant servers?
The HPE SN1610Q 32Gb Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter (HBA) provides significant I/O performance and security benefits over existing 16 Gb SAN solutions. Even if the SN1610 is introduced into a new ProLiant server, the Fibre Channel standard enables backward compatibility to 16 Gb infrastructure. Additionally, the HPE SN1610Q 32Gb Fibre Channel HBA is forward compatible to 64 Gb and future speeds. The exponential effect of newer servers and infrastructure helps accelerate databases, host more virtual machines, support emerging technologies such as NVMe, and reduce total cost of ownership. The HBA delivers better business outcomes across multiple industry verticals that rely on high-performance, data-intensive, and reliable connectivity from servers to storage.
When server infrastructure may be limiting the performance of the OLTP and database operations, what server upgrades are necessary to address potential performance bottlenecks and achieve more effective results?
The HPE SN1720E 64Gb Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter is designed for demanding mission-critical workloads and emerging applications. It supports HPE ProLiant, HPE Alletra Storage servers, and HPE Cray / HPE Superdome servers in a Fibre Channel SAN. Compared to the previous generation, the HPE SN1700E FC HBAs offers higher bandwidth, better latency, enhanced security, and operational efficiency for 64GFC. It provides seamless backward compatibility to 32GFC and 16GFC networks. When using storage-intensive applications, such as backup/restore, database transactions, virtualization, and rich media, the increased performance of the 64GFC infrastructure enables rapid storage and retrieval of critical information.
The HPE SN1700Q 64Gb Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapters (HBAs) enable any HPE ProLiant server to share a highly resilient storage array such as the HPE Alletra Storage Array. Any HPE ProLiant with a Fibre Channel (FC) HBA can be configured to share storage. This type of design is a Storage Area Network (SAN). A FC Switch is used between the HPE ProLiant servers and the storage to direct data traffic to and from the server and storage.
A SAN is an excellent design for high availability, and high performance, using block-based design complementary to databases, online transaction processing, and enterprise resource processing. The SAN also enables different generations of FC products to interconnect allowing for phased upgrades or longer investment protection options.
Do you want flexibility while being efficient? The HPE Synergy 4820C 10/20/25Gb Converged Network Adapter provides a path for 10G today and up to 25Gb tomorrow for Financial, trading, Telco and cloud service providers. This adapter converges Ethernet and FCoE onto a single connection simplifying hardware and reducing costs. Pairing with the Hewlett Packard Enterprise Synergy Switch solution, this adapter provides high throughput and low latency to implement intelligent and flexible networks connecting the server to the switch.
