What is Hyperscale?
Hyperscale refers to the complete mix of hardware and facilities that can scale a distributed computing environment up to thousands of servers.
Hyperscale definition
As its name implies,
Why hyperscale?
There are many reasons why an organisation might adopt hyperscale computing. Hyperscale may offer the best, or only way to realise a specific business goal like providing cloud computing services. Generally, though, hyperscale solutions deliver the most cost-effective approach to addressing a demanding set of requirements. For example, a big data analytics project might be most economically addressed through the scale and computing density available in hyperscale.
HPE hyperscale
The HPE Apollo high-density server family is the HPE solution for hyperscale computing. Each Apollo high-density server is built for the highest levels of performance and efficiency. Being density-optimised, the Apollo family enables organisations to achieve hyperscale within relatively small physical facilities. They offer a tiered approach to hyperscale.
