Flexible Design Making Your Investment Expand As Your Business Needs Grow
The HPE ProLiant DL380 Gen10 server has an adaptable chassis, including new Hewlett Packard Enterprise modular drive bay configuration options with up to 30 SFF, up to 19 LFF or up to 20 NVMe drive options along with support for up to three double wide GPU options.
HPE Persistent Memory works with DRAM to provide fast, high capacity, cost effective memory and storage to transform big data workloads and analytics by enabling data to be stored, moved, and processed quickly.
In conjunction with the embedded SATA HPE Dynamic Smart Array S100i Controller for boot, data and media needs, the redesigned HPE Smart Array Controllers allow you the flexibility to choose the optimal 12 Gb/s controller most suited to your environment, and operate in both SAS and HBA mode.
Along with an embedded 4x1GbE, you have a choice of HPE FlexibleLOM or PCIe standup adapters which offer a choice of networking bandwidth (1GbE to 40GbE) and fabric so you can adapt and grow to changing business needs.
Supporting a wide range of operating environments from Azure to Docker to ClearOS in addition to traditional operating systems.
Security Innovations
Only Hewlett Packard Enterprise offers industry standard servers with major firmware anchored directly into the silicon. Starting with silicon root of trust, security protection is built in across the server life-cycle.
New features include Server Configuration Lock that ensures secure transit and locks server hardware configuration, iLO Security Dashboard helps detect and address possible security vulnerabilities and Workload Performance Advisor provides server tuning recommendations for better server performance.
With Runtime Firmware Verification the server firmware is checked every 24 hours verifying validity and credibility of essential system firmware. Secure Recovery allows server firmware to rollback to the to last known good state or factory settings after detection of compromised code.
Additional security options are available with Trusted Platform Module (TPM) to prevent unauthorized access to the server and securely store artifacts used to authenticate the server platforms while the Intrusion Detection kit logs and alerts when the server hood is removed.
World-Class Performance featuring Enhanced Compute Density
The ProLiant DL380 now features significantly enhanced GPU density, expanding support from 5 to 7 Full-Height, Half-Length, Single-Width Accelerators/GPUs, or up to 6 in a balanced configuration with additional PCIe expansion via the tertiary riser.
Leveraging HPE's most popular 2U rackmount server, fitting standard depth racks, customers can benefit from one of the densest Accelerator/GPU platforms with an extensive set of Accelerator options, enabling diverse cloud workload performance and optimization of AI and deep learning experiences.
Supported on the ProLiant DL380, the NVIDIA T4 GPU is ideal for Deep learning, Inferencing, Machine Learning, HPC, Rendering, VDI, Virtual Workstations and combinations thereof for mixed workloads - maximizing utilization of data center resources and lowering TCO.
Industry Leading Services and Ease of Deployment
The HPE ProLiant DL380 Gen10 server comes with a complete set of HPE Technology Services, delivering confidence, reducing risk, and helping customers realize agility and stability.
HPE Pointnext Services simplifies all stages of the IT journey. Advisory and Transformation Services professionals understand customer challenges and design an optimal solution. Professional Services enable rapid deployment of solutions and Operational Services provide ongoing support.

Hewlett Packard Enterprise IT investment solutions help you transform to a digital business with IT economics that align to your business goals.
Simplified and Converged Management Across Cloud Storage
IT professionals juggling many responsibilities require simplified and comprehensive insights and management into their cloud environment. Easily manage volumes and snapshots to orchestrate your storage with HPE Storage integration into OpenStack's latest Manila (file) and Cinder (block) drivers.
For fluctuating cloud workloads, HPE 3PAR StoreServ provides unified management of both file and block storage on a dedicated, flash-optimized physical storage appliance.
Leverage your existing x86-based hardware for fully featured block, cloud storage with HPE StoreVirtual VSA. As a software-defined storage (SDS) solution you benefit from agile, scalable and high available storage.
Enterprise-ready Cloud Storage Infrastructure
Build an attainable and successful cloud strategy to operate in today's "always-connected" and "always-on" environment with HPE Storage's industry-leading scale and density to satisfy cloud growth requirements in less physical space.
Improve the use of your capacity with snapshot and volume management, while taking advantage of admin/user defined templates for adaptive volume provisioning with HPE 3PAR StoreServ and HPE StoreVirtual VSA.
Deep linking between Horizon OpenStack user interface and HPE 3PAR's Management Console (SSMC) makes it easier to gather information on the software licenses, helps in diagnostics, deploy and gain management visibility into specific volumes and storage details.
You can also easily import or manage volumes originally created outside of your OpenStack environment.
Resilient, Flash Storage in Mind
Maximize your cloud storage performance through HPE 3PAR StoreServ Adaptive Flash Cache feature that harnesses SSD capacity as a virtual extension of DRAM cache to reduce latency for cloud based online transactions processing (OLTP) and other read-intensive Web workloads.
Achieve greater cost efficiency with uncompromising performance and agility with HPE 3PAR StoreServ converged controllers and storage management. Easily adjust volume types from iSCSI to Fibre Channel or vice versa, without taking the OpenStack cloud offline.
