HPE buys Simplivity for $650M

Hewlett Packard Enterprise said it will buy SimpliVity, a hyperconverged system company, for $650 million in cash in a move to boost its hybrid cloud wares.

SimpliVity will provide HPE with more software defined infrastructure that it can combine with its automation, software and system tools.

In a statement, HPE CEO Meg Whitman said the purchase is aimed at hybrid IT and provide “on-premises infrastructure at cloud economics.”

SimpliVity is based in Westborough, MA and will complement HPE’s hyperconverged gear, 3PAR storage and multi-cloud management tools.

According to the companies, HPE will sell its HC 380 and HC 250 hyperconverged systems while supporting SimpliVity’s systems without immediate changes to the product roadmap.

HPE said it will also offer SimpliVity’s Omni Stack software on its ProLiant DL380 servers. In the second half of 2017, HPE will offer a lineup of ProLiant servers with SimpliVity integrated.

HP Enterprise (HPE) HC250 vs HC380

HP Enterprise (HPE) HC250 vs HC380

HPE jumped into Hyperconvergence market with its own offerings in early 2016. HPE offers two hyper-converged solutions: the HPE Hyper Converged 250 and the Hyper Converged 380. Let’s start by covering a few features sets that are common to both appliances:

Before highlighting the differences, the HPE HC250 and the HC380 both offer:

Low-entry point — Both solutions allow you to start with as few as two nodes and build from there.

Fast scalability — Either Hyper Converged 250 or the Hyper Converged 380 nodes can be added in as little as 15 minutes for easy, fast expansion.

An intuitive user experience — Management of either system is handled through HPE OneView, which makes managing and monitoring these resources very simple.

Simplified life-cycle management — Both systems allow you to perform functions like setting up new VMs or updating firmware and drivers with just a few clicks.

One vendor support
— Both solutions are supported 24X7 by HPE Technology Support Services.

High availability — Both solutions provide 5-nines availability levels.

Real-time alerts — Using System Center’s real-time alerts, both systems make it easy to know what’s going on in your data center even remotely.

So, what’s the primary difference between the HPE HC250 and HC380 other than pricing or cost?

One of the biggest differences is that while the HPE Hyper Converged 250 (HC250) allows you to expand up to 4 nodes within a single chassis, the Hyper Converged 380 (HC380) allows for expansion up to 16 nodes. Supporting more nodes per box can lower the need for additional infrastructure and may be a benefit, especially in larger organizations.

HPE StoreOnce Pricing

HPE StoreOnce Systems Pricing

Flash is great for high performance workloads, but there is always the need for speedy backup and replication routines. HPE recently upgraded its StoreOnce products by adding the ability to perform flat backups directly from any 3PAR storage appliance, such as the 20840.

Keeping pace with flash-powered appliances that provide incredible throughput requires a robust architecture, and HPE designed its StoreOnce Recovery Manager Central software to perform direct backups from applications up to 17x faster and perform data restoration tasks 5x faster. Pricing is also an additional feature.

The company rolled out the new HPE StoreOnce 5500, which scales up to 864 TB (double that of the nearest competitor) for as little as $0.02 per GB.

HPE also offers the new StoreOnce 6600 for scale out applications. HPE indicated that the 6600 provides multi-node resiliency and can scale to 1.7 PB. The company also claims the 184TB per-hour ingest rate is 3 times faster than its nearest competitor.

The StoreOnce 5500 and 6500 are available starting at $35,100 and $75,000, respectively, on March 31 2016.

HPE 3PAR StoreServ Pricing

HPE 3PAR StoreServ 20840

HPE upgraded its SPC-2 leading all-flash 3PAR StoreServ 20850 architecture to accommodate shelves of 8 TB HDDs. The resulting 3PAR StoreServ 20840 will allow customers to reap performance benefits of an all-flash architecture (built from the ground up for flash).

HPE claims the 3PAR StoreServ 20840 accomplishes this feat with 85 percent less floor space, power and cooling required for traditional storage implementations, such as EMC’s VMAX platform.

Customers can consolidate both block and file storage on one platform. The key principle is to consolidate workloads onto one system that scales up to 8 nodes and 21 PB of storage while providing up to 3.2 million random-read IO Per Second.

HPE also announced that its entry-level 3PAR 8450 earned the #1 spot atop the SPC-1 Price/Performance tier with a cost of $0.23 per SPC-1 IOP.

The 3PAR 20840 is available worldwide starting at $147,000. The inaugural products support 1,920 drives and will expand to 2,304 drives in 2H2016.
