A way forward for enterprise IT
IT is under tremendous pressure to move faster and be more agile. Complex manual processes and non-integrated infrastructure can’t provide the power, simplicity, and speed necessary to meet the demands of the enterprise. Apps are growing 5x faster than IT can deliver, managing the IT stack consumes 80% of time and budgets, and cloud expenses are increasing rapidly. Hyperconverged infrastructure systems empower IT to overcome these challenges, so you can reduce the cost and complexity of your IT environment and deliver the technology your organisation needs.
HPE Hyper Converged solutions provide a simple, efficient, software-defined platform that combines everything below the hypervisor, delivering the agility and economics of cloud with the enterprise capabilities of on-prem infrastructure.

The built-in capabilities in hyperconverged infrastructure technology help organisations address a range of critical challenges for managing infrastructure.
Minimise your data centre footprint for lower upfront costs, greater operational efficiency, and improved performance.
Protect your data in a fraction of the time required by legacy solutions with end-to-end data protection and automated disaster recovery.
Scale up VDI with unmatched performance. Get more virtual desktops on less hardware and globally backup, restore, or clone a VM in three clicks or less.
Remove distance as a limitation with built-in data efficiency and protection for ROBOs, cost-effective scalability, and centralised management.
Get enterprise-level performance, reliability, and control with the efficiency, flexibility, and economics of cloud.
Improve the performance and recovery time of Tier-1 applications like Microsoft Exchange, SQL Server, and Oracle.
Achieve the true power of hyperconvergence by combining your entire infrastructure into a simple, flexible building block with full consolidation of your software and hardware devices below the hypervisor.
Placing all your IT infrastructure below the hypervisor on a scalable x86 platform reduces your data centre devices by a ratio of 10:1.
End-to-end data protection and automated disaster recovery reduces storage and bandwidth requirements, resulting in more recovery points and enhanced VM protection.
Businesses achieve significant IT operational efficiency with a unified system that reduces the overhead of managing disparate resources.
Built-in efficiency and data protection makes it easier to manage essential applications, increasing performance and reducing recovery time.
HPE Hyper Converged solutions help organisations across diverse verticals and geographical locations solve their IT challenges and meet their business needs.

To support a business technology agenda, infrastructure and operations (I&O) professionals must factor critical aspects of their own environments into their decisions and understand how these requirements affect implicit and explicit weighting as they evaluate hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI) offerings. This report covers the major variations in workloads and data services that can make an impact on your selection and outlines a methodology for evaluating the true cost of these solutions.
Metrics that matter when evaluating hyperconverged infrastructure
Read about hyperconverged infrastructure, the benefits, expectations and vendors' approaches to determine the infrastructure model that’s right for your data centre today and into the future.
An emerging data centre architectural option, dubbed hyperconverged infrastructure, is a new way to reduce your costs and better align enterprise IT with business needs. At its most basic, hyperconverged infrastructure is the conglomeration of the servers and storage devices that comprise the data centre. These systems are wrapped in comprehensive and easy-to-use management tools designed to help shield the administrator from much of the underlying architectural complexity.
