HPE Primera: A new era for smart storage

Applications storage enters the smart era with Primera. Leveraging AI from HPE InfoSight to deliver unmatched simplicity, availability and performance for mission-critical applications.

Businesses want to bring new mission-critical applications to market, and support existing ones, accelerating speed of business, agility and innovation. IT can’t support these demands alongside the current administration and support tasks. So IT is sacrificing agility to maintain reliability. 

Intelligence changes everything. Today’s organizations need a fundamentally new approach to infrastructure operations with an intelligent data strategy.

Milan Shetti, SVP and General Manager, HPE Storage.

 

HPE Primera redefines mission-critical storage by delivering superior simplicity, availability and performance. Leverages the industry’s most advanced AI platform for operations, HPE InfoSight, the platform reduces storage management time by up to 93%*. Primera enables you to predict and prevent issues and accelerate application performance.

*Based on HPE internal testing, compared to previous generation storage arrays.

Delivering a Simple, Consumer-Grade User Experience for Mission-Critical Storage:

  • Simple to install: Self-install in less than 20 minutes.
  • Simple to manage: Provision storage within seconds. Data reduction is built-in and always-on with the flexibility to turn it off.
  • Simple to upgrade: Services-centric OS decouples data services, allowing them to be deployed, upgraded, or restarted independently. HPE Primera software can be upgraded by customers in 5 minutes.

I’m looking forward to deploying HPE Primera with its self-setup, self-tuning and automatic upgrades that don’t disrupt applications. 

Michael York, Sr. Systems Engineer, Asante.
