The new offerings include:
- HP Converged Storage solutions which offer unified, flash, and flat backup storage innovations that can serve the entire spectrum of storage requirements.
- Converged infrastructure designed for customers’ most important workloads in infrastructure as a service (IaaS), cloud, mobility and big data.
- Expanded consulting and support services include HP Datacenter Care and HP Consulting for software-defined infrastructure.
Specifically, HP Integrity Superdome X and HP Integrity NonStop X, which allow customers to deploy mission-critical workloads in a highly scalable, available and cost-efficient x86 environment.
The HP Integrity Superdome X delivers four times faster e-commerce transactions than leading x86 platforms1. For more stringent service level agreements (SLAs), it delivers 20 times more reliability with 60% less downtime than other x86 platforms2. Additionally, it redefines economics for mission-critical compute with 32% lower total cost of ownership compared to competitive Unix environments3.
The HP Integrity NonStop X is a fault-tolerant system architecture for stringent uptime SLAs4. To accommodate escalating transaction volume and support business growth, it offers up to 25x increase in system interconnect capacity5. Twice the NonStop CPU density in a single enclosure enables decreased data centre footprints and costs6.
The new flash-optimised HP 3PAR StoreServ systems boost utilisation and lower costs by moving storage-related workloads such as data access, protection and analytics directly to the storage operating system and controller. The systems are completed by HP StoreOnce Recovery Manager Central software, which manages snapshots on 3PAR StoreServ systems and controls movement of the changed data to a HP StoreOnce Backup target in a single click, delivering greater protection and 17 times faster performance8.
For converged systems there is a new software-defined converged infrastructure portfolio powered by HP OneView, HP Helion CloudSystem CS200-Hyper-Converged StoreVirtual, and HP ConvergedSystem 700. HP OneView helps streamline IT operations and increase automation which enable customers to increase IT staff efficiency, delivering infrastructure services in as few as five clicks and offering predictive analytics. Customers can expect faster problem resolution, down from three days to 30 minutes when using HP Operations Analytics9.
The HP ConvergedSystem 700 powered by HP OneView and HP Helion CloudSystem CS 200-HC brings together HP’s compute, storage and networking components and uses HP OneView and Hyper-Convergence to deliver the promise of software-defined infrastructure. This system allows customers to create new services up to 40 times faster by reducing time to order, deploy and provision infrastructure9.
The latest hyper-converged offering to HP’s Converged System portfolio, HP Helion CloudSystem CS200-Hyper-Converged StoreVirtual provides customers an easy, open path to hybrid cloud delivery. Enterprises and service providers can now build and manage clouds for traditional and cloud-native workloads with simple deployment, management and support.
To further enhance support of and transition to the new style of IT, including advanced cloud environments involving devops and HP Helion OpenStack, HP Datacenter Care provides a flexible, comprehensive, relationship-based approach to personalised support and management of heterogeneous data centres. HP Consulting Services for software-defined infrastructure include workshop, readiness and roadmap, architecture and design services.
