Leading up to the HPE Discover Virtual Experience we had big news. We just announced some pretty exciting primary storage updates that center on Advancing Intelligence, Mission-Critical DR, Accelerating Apps, and On-Demand Automation. HPE Nimble Storage and HPE Primera are our stars of the day, and I have two ways for you to learn about what’s up: a Chalk Talk and a podcast.
The next BriefingsDirect intelligent storage innovation discussion explores how Norway-based Intility sought and found the cutting edge of intelligent storage.
Stay with us as we learn how this leading managed platform services provider improved uptime — on the road to 100 percent — and reduced complexity for its end users.
In this abbreviated article based on an Around the Storage Block blog post, my colleague Simon Watkins looked at what customers said about HPE StoreOnce. There were too many quotes to include in my article so be sure to read the article on ATSB to see everything that was said. Here’s the article from Simon.
In our connected 24×7 economy, experiencing downtime for most applications has become cost-prohibitive for business, not only financially but also in loss of reputation. Minimizing downtime has long been a core tenet of IT teams the world over, especially those working with vital applications such as enterprise resource planning, core banking, electronic healthcare and more. In HPE, we have vast experience and proven solutions in the mission-critical computing space. We start at the infrastructure level with our well known mission-critical servers, with a unique and comprehensive set of built-in RAS (reliability, availability, and serviceability) capabilities that result in high levels of single-system uptime. Single-system availability is of great value, and a fundamental component of any mission-critical environment; but it´s not enough when the end result must be maximum application uptime across the IT stack. Ultimately, the business cares about the availability of business functionality, and that comes directly from the applications. And so, application-targeted high availability is paramount for this type of IT deployment.
A couple of months ago, I did a Chalk Talk that gave a description of the HPE Complete program. The HPE Complete program resells best-in-class third party branded products that complement and complete HPE native solutions. When something is worth my time to do a Chalk Talk, I try to also do a blog post on the topic. I just updated the Chalk Talk with a few new partners in the Complete program so now’s a great time to highlight the program.
