HP Makes Enterprise Architecture of the Future a Reality
Innovative Converged Infrastructure Solutions and Services
Deliver Simplicity, Efficiency and Investment Protection for
Customers
LAS VEGAS, NV--(Marketwired - Jun 9, 2014) - HP (NYSE: HPQ)
today announced new innovations and sustainable enterprise
infrastructure solutions that deliver the simplicity, efficiency
and investment protection organizations need to bridge the
datacenter technologies of today and tomorrow.
Big data, mobility, security and cloud computing are forcing
organizations to rethink their approach to technology, causing them
to invest heavily in IT infrastructure. According to Gartner,
"Datacenter hardware spending from new types of products and new
types of big data deployments will reach $9.4 billion in
2014."(1)
HP is helping enterprises create a foundation for the next
generation of enterprise architecture with new solutions and
services that address power and physical constraints, accelerate
applications, simplify management, create efficiencies and enhance
agility -- while also lowering IT and operational expenses. The new
offerings, which enable a software-defined datacenter that is
supported by cloud delivery models and built on a converged
infrastructure that spans compute, storage and network
technologies, include:
- High-performance computing (HPC) offerings, including HP Apollo
HPC systems, capable of delivering breakthrough performance while
using less space and energy.
- Enhancements to the all-flash HP 3PAR StoreServ and HP
StoreOnce Backup family accelerate mission-critical applications
and eliminate complex backup silos.
- Networking offerings like the HP Virtual Cloud Networking (VCN)
SDN Application, designed to simplify the transition to a
software-defined datacenter.
- The enhanced HP ConvergedSystem platform for IT-as-a-Service,
which offers increased performance with radically reduced cost,
time and complexity.
- HP Datacenter Care Flexible Capacity, a pay-as-you-go model
that removes the boundaries between datacenter and cloud resources
for easy management of a hybrid IT environment.
"As customers look ahead, they need business outcome-driven
infrastructure that enables the New Style of IT," said
Bill Veghte, executive vice president and general
manager, Enterprise Group, HP. "With the products and services we
are launching at Discover, HP is reducing complexity for customers
while speeding time to value."
Redefining the enterprise HPC landscape with new supercomputer
family HPC enables critical breakthroughs in science and
engineering, and use of the technology is expanding beyond
governments and academia to enterprises, where it can help them
enhance research and development efforts while gaining a
competitive edge. However, many organizations aren't equipped to
handle the massive compute demands required by traditional HPC
systems.
HP is addressing these space, power and datacenter efficiency
challenges with the introduction of HP Apollo, a new family of HPC
solutions that brings the power of HPC to organizations of all
sizes. These new servers combine a modular design with innovative
power distribution and air- and liquid-cooling techniques for
extreme performance at rack scale, providing up to four times more
performance per square foot than standard rack servers.(2)
HP also introduced HP Helion Self-Service HPC, a private cloud
solution based on the HP Helion OpenStack® cloud platform that
provides a self-service portal containing HPC resources via a
user-friendly application interface.
Architecting for simplicity with converged storage and
software-defined networks HP is helping customers accelerate the
transition to a next-generation IT infrastructure while maintaining
business continuity and simplicity with enhanced offerings that
provide ease of management from data creation throughout the life
cycle:
- The all-flash HP 3PAR StoreServ 7450 Storage array delivers
flash storage at under $2 per usable gigabyte via inline
deduplication without compromising performance or guaranteed
99.9999 percent data availability.(3)
- New backup, recovery and archive (BURA) solutions, including
enhancements to the HP StoreOnce Backup family. These offerings
eliminate the requirement to manage isolated single node backup
targets, enabling customers to protect increasing volumes of data
while simplifying data management.
Organizations wrestling with the complexity of a legacy network
architecture are prevented from unleashing the full potential of
the cloud. Transitioning to software-defined networking (SDN)
provides the flexibility an enterprise needs to ensure success in
the cloud and bring simplicity and agility to the datacenter
network. The new HP Virtual Cloud Networking SDN Application and HP
FlexFabric Datacenter 7900 series switch rapidly virtualize the
datacenter, enabling customers to deploy and optimize secure,
isolated cloud networks in minutes vs. months.(4) In addition, HP
Trusted Network Transformation is an end-to-end approach that
provides customers the confidence to successfully transform their
datacenter network while maintaining business continuity.
Creating efficiency and investment protection for tomorrow's
enterprise To meet growing business demands for service delivery
and serve as a driver of profitable opportunities, IT
administrators need to automate delivery and operations of IT
services, all within an infrastructure that requires fewer
resources to support it.
To help organizations achieve this transformation, HP has
refreshed HP OneView with enhancements that enable customers to
leverage a software-defined converged management approach within
their datacenter. HP OneView automates routine IT tasks, reduces IT
operational expenses and speeds response times to business needs,
improving efficiency and reducing operational costs. A key
enhancement to HP OneView includes extended management across HP
3PAR storage and support flexible storage resource pools with
converging automation of servers and storage.
HP also has integrated HP ConvergedSystem for Virtualization
with HP OneView, delivering a common management platform across
servers, storage, networking and third-party software, enabling
customers to deploy and automate the management of their IT
environment in as little as 20 days.(5)
A hybrid IT environment delivers business agility and
flexibility but needs to offer shared pools of resources onsite and
from the public cloud to be efficient. HP Datacenter Care Flexible
Capacity, a new, pay-as-you-go solution from HP Technology
Services, delivers a public cloud experience with the benefits of
public and/or on-premises IT. With flexible pricing models,
scalability and flexible usage across the datacenter, customers can
gain the benefits of a public cloud, on-premises or hybrid delivery
model to retain control and improve security, while maintaining an
enterprise-quality support experience.
