HPE leads the race for storage solutions thanks to the power of super-converged infrastructure

According to a report from IDC, “giant” HPE is currently the few storage technology companies in the top group, with positive growth in the third quarter of 2020.

Today, virtualization models are considered a new trend for businesses thanks to their performance and flexibility – easily adaptable in the digital age, especially in the context of Covid-19 which has a major impact on the economy. economy – global society. Experts in charge of virtual infrastructure are facing many challenges because of the complexity of multi-domain systems, the pressure to support both traditional and modern applications without incurring costs. The question is: What trends and storage solutions are capable of meeting current needs and sustainable future growth of the business?

The trend of building storage technology infrastructure in 2021

The rapid growth of digitalization has produced huge amounts of data, putting pressure on traditional storage systems. Therefore, in order to ensure long-term development in the medium and short term, the trend of building technology infrastructure systems is predicted to develop in a specific direction.

First, 20% of customers will use cloud infrastructure and artificial intelligence for administrative tools, connecting the cabinets to backup and backup systems by 2023. Next, from 2023 to 2025 will be the period when 20% of customers will start using NVMe-oF instead of current protocols like FC and iSCSI. It is expected that, by 2025, 50% of customers will convert to an investment model of OPEX (regular operating costs) instead of CAPEX (cost of investment).

Storage solutions that meet the current and future needs of the business

According to Gartner, one of the top choice of storage products for businesses is HPE Primera and Nimble that fully support new technologies such as NVMe, AI application in management and 100% absolute availability.

In 2021, HPE will test the sales model in the form of OPEX (the trade name is Greenlake) to help customers not need to invest all of their storage capacity at first, but “where to use – pay to get there “, as cloud services are popular today.

On the morning of January 26, 2021, HPE Vietnam held an online seminar with the topic “Modernizing and optimizing the efficiency of virtual infrastructure investment with HPE Nimble Dhci storage system”. The program has attracted more than 400 registrations and nearly 300 participants. At the seminar, Mr. Pham Tuan Ngoc, HPE Vietnam Storage Product Manager shared: “HPE Nimble Storage dHCI is a future ready solution with many outstanding features. This solution overcomes some weaknesses that the current HCI infrastructure has not been dealt with, at the same time helping businesses save costs “. This is also the strength that helps HPE products to meet the general trend of customers in the short and medium term as mentioned in the future construction of storage technology infrastructure.

HPE Nimble Storage dHCI is aimed at mid-sized business customers who want a storage system that delivers both high performance and ease of administration. For customers in the high segment, HPE Nimble Storage dHCI is designed in class-1 or class-2 (Tier 1, 2). The system also supports NVMe and an administration tool that uses artificial intelligence (InfoSight) to self-detect, self-fix and self-optimize, thereby reducing system failure and saving save time for the administrator. With InfoSight, not only the cabinets but also other devices in the infrastructure are managed as servers and virtualized.

HPE Nimble Storage dHCI is capable of on-demand operations with policy-based automation intelligence for VM-centric management; Absolute resiliency designed for 99.9999% availability at maximum speeds and sub-millisecond latency for always-on applications. In addition, this system also takes advantage of investment costs by reusing existing servers of the enterprise and allows systems other than HCI to connect to their Storage, overcoming weaknesses of existing HCI systems. Along with the scalability, supporting more stringent requirements for applications and workloads, HPE Nimble Storage dHCI provides businesses with a modern, minimal and cost-effective virtual infrastructure.
