Faster, Smaller, and More Sustainable – HPE Storage Redefines Efficiency

This new configuration marks a key step in HPE’s strategy for AI-ready, more sustainable infrastructure. The new 4-node switchless configuration offers industry-leading density and efficiency while minimizing power consumption. For customers, this means they can have more storage and consolidate applications in less space, with the option to build a larger data center as the business’ needs evolve leveraging this modular design as the building block. This enables enterprises to grow more sustainably with higher ROI while lowering operational overhead. The new B10000 configuration option helps meet the needs of customers across financial services, manufacturing, telecom, and cloud operations who prefer incremental infrastructure expansion over single large clusters. This approach limits the number of users and applications affected by unforeseen events or system failures.

Building on our proven 2-node solution, it delivers simplicity and efficiency at scale by optimizing density, cost, and power consumption, all with uncompromising performance. It achieves top-tier performance for SAP HANA with the industry’s smallest footprint and lowest power consumption. Compared to major competitors of a high-end system, the B10000 now delivers capacity density that is up to six times greater and up to 65% lower power consumption with similar performance.

Flexibility and efficiency: A solution for every need
The new configuration further broadens customer options with the B10000, enabling organizations to select the optimal solution for their specific requirements in terms of efficiency, scalability, and IT sustainability goals.

For customers looking for maximum flexibility, our existing switched configurations based on the disaggregated scale-out architecture is the ideal choice. It enables seamless growth with independent scaling of performance and capacity.

For customers focused on maximizing space efficiency, the new 4-node switchless solution optimizes data center operations with up to 73% rack space savings and 47% power savings, compared to switched configurations.

Intelligent innovation across the stack
The 4-node switchless system also offers AI-driven cloud experience, cyber resilience, and virtualization efficiency as part of our B10000 portfolio.

Autonomous AI-driven operations 
The B10000 streamlines storage management by cutting cost, risk, and operational time. With Data Services Cloud Console built on HPE GreenLake cloud, users get AI-driven insights and faster provisioning, reducing operational time by up to 99%. Predictive analytics help prevent 86% of disruptions, while cross-stack visibility and advanced performance analytics speed up troubleshooting and issue resolution.

Comprehensive, AI-powered ransomware protection and cyber resilience
HPE knows that cybersecurity is integral, not optional. Helping customers keep their data secure means preventing catastrophic attacks that could cost millions. The B10000 delivers native, real-time ransomware detection at the storage layer using adaptive AI, proven effective against more than 25 ransomware strains by the HPE Cybersecurity Center of Excellence. It easily integrates with existing security environments. Additionally, when combined with HPE Zerto Software, it provides multilayered protection and a cyber resilience workflow aligned with the NIST Cybersecurity Framework, backed by HPE’s Cyber Resiliency Guarantee.

Simplified and cost-effective virtualization
Rising virtualization licensing costs are prompting customers to seek affordable alternatives. The B10000 integrates with HPE Morpheus VM Essentials Software which offers enterprise-grade virtualization, reducing licensing expenses by up to 90%. It allows easy management of VMware environments, as well as transition to future virtualization strategies. 

Efficiency that scales more sustainably 
Efficiency is about more than numbers. It is about enabling customers to do more with less. With unparalleled performance density and low energy consumption, the HPE Alletra Storage MP B10000 portfolio offers just that. From entry-level deployments to multi-rack data centers, we are empowering organizations to scale performance, capacity, and IT sustainability independently, without compromise.
