File Storage

File storage is the most basic concept of data management.

HPE GreenLake enables you to keep file storage resources close to where they are needed, thus improving latency performance versus a total cloud-based solution. The flexible, disaggregated modular architecture that HPE GreenLake delivers is designed for exabyte scale and delivers with all-NVMe performance across your entire enterprise. There is no front-end caching or data movement between media. The highly resilient design of the platform reduces the risk of data disruption, and its future-proof architecture eliminates the need for elongated forklift upgrades or platform migrations.

Like all HPE GreenLake services, storage management and file share creation take place within a single console portal that provides a self-service cloud experience accessible from anywhere. You can also natively integrate with other HPE GreenLake offerings such as backup and recovery, archiving, and disaster recovery to ensure data can be quickly recovered from multiple incident types.

Remember, you don’t pay for the storage infrastructure at large, but only for what you use. You can start out with the minimum number of storage nodes to service your immediate needs and then add additional controllers or storage nodes as needed through a totally non-disruptive process. Investment protection is ensured through data-in-pace upgrades that occur in the background. Cost reduction innovations include a unique similarity algorithm that achieves superior data compression and deduplication to ensure that storage space is fully maximized and while minimizing cost.

With HPE GreenLake, your data scientists do not have to be storage experts with detailed understandings of legacy file systems and intricate setup processes. Why? HPE GreenLake data experts do all the heavy lifting for you and handle required data operational tasks. But while you may not be burdened with management duties, you still maintain control over the data environment and meet regulatory requirements for data security and privacy.
