Watch this webinar on the HPE Storage Extender for Azure Stack Hub. This new solution brings flexibility to previously rigid Azure Stack Hub configurations. It lets organizations expand just the data storage capacity without having to add compute nodes or buy a whole new Azure Stack Hub. Watch the webinar to understand more about hybrid cloud and save capex.

This free webcast features an interview with HPE Senior Product Manager for Big Data & Analytics, Andrea Fabrizi, who calls in to provide an overview and technical insight on the new Microsoft SQL Server 2019 Big Data Cluster (BDC) capability. Among other enhancements, this product update supports Linux, Containers and a scale-out architecture making it perfect for Big Data use in the enterprise. Topics include typical BDC architecture, components, polybase, container management, security considerations, and additional resources. Learn how these Big Data Clusters will let organizations manage more data with existing SQL Server tools and expertise.

SAP environments are always growing and creating new valuable data for your business. The old data still has value, but decreases in business value the older it gets. However, storing all of this older data in the server memory is very expensive. HPE Storage can help you solve this problem by implementing SAP HANA Native Storage Extension, a technology that keeps only the high-value data in memory and stores the remaining lower-value data on disk. Join us in this BrightTalk webinar to learn how to implement SAP HANA Native Storage Extension (NSE) using HPE Storage.

Secondary data has become the primary problem. Learn how HPE and Cohesity allow organizations to protect, store, and easily manage their non-latency sensitive (secondary) data starting with backups, and extending to archiving, file & object storage, test/dev and analytics with a web-scale, software-defined platform that spans seamlessly across core, edge and cloud - eliminating legacy infrastructure silos and mass data fragmentation while providing a single point of global control. The joint HPE-Cohesity solution, now complete with HPE Nimble snapshot integration, empowers customers to do more with their backup data, freeing it from being just an expensive insurance policy and enabling them to repurpose it for business advantage.

Want a simpler on-prem infrastructure for your Windows analytics and data-centric workloads? The new Azure Stack HCI on HPE Apollo 4200 solution combines Microsoft Windows Server 2019 hyper-converged technology with the leading storage capacity/density data platform in its class. Learn the basics of this new ‘Big Data HCI’ approach that combines the familiarity and economics of Windows with the big data heritage of HPE Apollo.

The steady rise in worldwide safety and security concerns for private and public organizations has continued to drive the massive growth in the need for video surveillance. Surveillance cameras and security devices are used everywhere; in schools, sports venues, concert arenas, government buildings, city streets, hospitals, scientific facilities and
laboratories, as well as law enforcement vehicle dashboards and body cameras. With the implementation of more IP video surveillance systems utilizing high-definition cameras to obtain the best quality images, video surveillance data will continue to grow, and with this growth, comes unique storage challenges.

In this BrightTalk, you will learn how to future-proof your video surveillance system with Qumulo and HPE.

SAP HANA distinguishes frequently accessed mission-critical ‘hot’ data from less frequently accessed ‘warm’ data by pushing it latter to a lower cost hardware tier using dynamic tiering or extension nodes technologies. This session talks about how HPE 3PAR StoreServ offers tiered storage provisioning for these technologies to efficiently manage warm data in SAP HANA.

Microsoft Windows Server, SQL Server and Exchange are keys to productivity, but some versions are nearing the end of extended support. Look ahead to the next software generation and refresh your storage infrastructure with HPE storage.

SAP HANA rapidly delivers insights from data and is important for digital business. This talks about the important role of storage in SAP HANA environments and how HPE Storage delivers maximum value for SAP HANA deployments.

Oracle databases are core to strategic IT, but data quantities are increasing. The cloud is ubiquitous, flash memory is taking hold, & data protection remains critical. Rethink your Oracle environment with HPE Storage solutions for Oracle.

To borrow a phrase from a popular song from REM, “It’s the end of the LUN as we know it and I feel fine”. VMware VVols changes everything we know about storage for vSphere in a good way, with VVols LUN management is a thing of the past. VMware VVols represents the future of external storage for vSphere and that future is here right now. VVols also represents many years of engineering work by both VMware and its storage partners. The result of that work is a new storage architecture for vSphere that solves many of the hidden complexities inherent in VMFS and levels the playing field between file and block protocols. Learn from experts at HPE & VMware how VVols transforms external storage in vSphere, eliminates complexities and provides very real benefits to customers.

Windows solution experts share info on best practices and the latest HPE Storage Integrations, plug-ins and tools covering SCOM, SCVMM, PowerShell and more.

Data is the lifeblood of business. A company’s data is usually copied at least once, and often multiple times, to meet the needs of various use cases such as clones for test/dev or analytics, backup copies for data protection, archival copies for compliance, instant recovery copies, or, any particular set of data is likely to have spawned one or more copies. Copies are so important that they now consume 60% of total storage capacity for the average enterprise – even more than production data. While these copies are nearly always made for a good reason, in many organizations they have spiralled out of control, creating a copy data sprawl that is tough for IT to get its arms around, let alone manage.
So how do you protect this important asset, grant copies to all who need it, and avoid paying for extra storage capacity – on-premises and in the cloud? HPE Storage’s Recovery Manager Central (RMC) for 3PAR and Nimble Storage platforms delivers a single-pane-of-glass for Copy Data Management and Data Protection for a variety of workloads such as VMware, Oracle, SQL Server, Exchange, SAP HANA and more. In this talk, we will cover how RMC delivers a DataOps experience for 3PAR and Nimble platforms with live demos.
