Key Features
Go Faster with Self-Service Agility
HPE GreenLake for Block Storage simplifies on premises storage with the speed and agility of a cloud operational experience. This makes underlying infrastructure invisible while shifting operations to be app, not infrastructure, centric.
Unlike the traditional storage management common to other storage as-a-service options, with HPE GreenLake for Block Storage, line of business and DB admins can easily procure and provision storage to accelerate app deployment—freeing up IT resources to work on strategic, higher-value initiatives.
Accelerate storage provisioning with intent based provisioning. Just select the storage tier and workload type, specify the capacity and protection policy, and let AI-driven intelligence automatically optimize your SLAs by recommending the best-suited system across your fleet for your new workload.
Intent-based Provisioning, combined with role-based access control, gives you a true self-service cloud provisioning experience, without the need for storage expertise. Enable line of business and app owners to deploy apps faster by slashing storage provisioning time from days or weeks to minutes.
With intelligent quality of service (QoS) for critical workloads you can set priorities on a specific volume or application group that ensure performance expectations are always met. In the event of resource contention, volumes with the lowest priority are capped.
Consume as a Service
Shift from owning and maintaining data infrastructure to simply accessing and utilizing it. A flexible as-a-service consumption model enables you to avoid over- and under-provisioning concerns, CAPEX budget constraints, and complex
procurement cycles.
Get started easily with instant SLA-driven quoting and rapid ordering. Instead of having to select a specific storage system or configuration, you simply choose from four key service parameters for your desired SLA: availability tier, performance level, reserve capacity, and subscription term.
Scale on-demand and as necessary, with buffer capacity for unexpected workloads or usage demands.
Shift from heavy upfront costs to a transparent and predictable monthly subscription.
Consuming as a service shortens project deployment times, frees up capital and IT resources, aligns spending with business needs, and boosts financial flexibility and operational speed.
