In April, Hewlett Packard Enterprise announced new file and block storage, backup and recovery, and disaster recovery services designed to help customers avoid data silos and reduce cost and complexity. New file storage services provide enterprise-grade scale-out performance for data-intensive workloads, while advanced block services provide mission-critical data storage, all at a mid-range price point.
The new file and block storage offerings are powered by the flexible storage architecture of HPE Alletra Storage MP so customers can store, manage and secure all types of data from a single unified platform in the hybrid cloud. At the same time, new data services provide an intuitive experience in the cloud, enabling customers to transform data lifecycle management and succeed in the age of analytics.
Today, customers face unprecedented challenges in managing their data. The rapid increase in data volume and complexity has forced organizations to manage it all with a costly combination of isolated storage systems. New HPE GreenLake Data Services and advanced HPE Alletra Cloud Infrastructure innovations simplify and cost-effectively manage multiple data types, storage protocols and workloads, allowing customers to focus on accelerating innovation and driving business results.

Companies of all sizes are looking to use data to achieve better results while controlling the cost and complexity of data management. Meanwhile, the global volume of generated data is expected to double by 20261. Organizations today face a chaotic array of workload types and data protocols, each requiring different systems to support and manage, and find it difficult to back up, protect, and restore the data that their business depends on.
To help organizations overcome these data lifecycle management challenges, HPE is introducing a new modular storage solution that can be configured for block or file storage. The HPE Alletra Storage MP storage system supports a disaggregated infrastructure with multiple storage protocols on the same hardware that can be independently scaled to improve performance and capacity. Customers benefit from a single unified cloud platform to deploy, manage and organize data and storage services regardless of workload and storage protocol. The flexibility of HPE Alletra Storage MP provides the best value for money today and the ability to economically scale infrastructure on the same hardware in the future, while increasing investment protection. In addition, the intuitive cloud-based interface based on AIOps AI solution allows you to provision and manage storage without special skills.
HPE GreenLake enters the file storage market and expands block storage
New HPE file and block storage offerings leveraging the flexible storage architecture of HPE Alletra Storage MP are available through HPE GreenLake. Together, the ability to organize and manage file and block data services from a single platform allows customers to focus on harnessing the power of data to innovate and gain competitive advantage.
The HPE GreenLake for File Storage Solution provides a scale-out service to accelerate data-intensive workloads with scalable enterprise performance with hundreds of gigabytes per second throughput2. The new file storage service combines the cloud collaboration of HPE GreenLake solutions and VAST Data software to create an extremely resilient file service designed for exabyte scale.
Agoda’s most important assets are customer information and travel supplier data. We need a data platform that can easily scale performance and capacity to keep up with our growth. Agoda has always strived to use the best technology to get the job done; for that, the combination of HPE GreenLake with VAST Data makes perfect sense, and we look forward to seeing HPE GreenLake for File Storage deliver best-in-class performance over the coming years.
Idan Salzberg, CTO of the travel agency Agoda
HPE GreenLake for Block Storage expands to offer the availability, performance, and scalability of mission-critical mid-range storage. The new HPE GreenLake for Block Storage solution is the industry’s first disaggregated, scalable block storage solution with 100% guaranteed data availability. HPE GreenLake for Block Storage now offers the best value for money, but with the same always-on, fast architecture designed to help customers maintain consistent service levels for mission-critical applications and mixed workloads.
Innovation is one of the pillars of our brand, so we appreciate that HPE is at the forefront with their hybrid cloud vision and bringing the cloud experience to work locally. We are longtime customers of HPE and believe that the ease of management, efficient scaling and high performance of the new HPE GreenLake For Block Storage solution will add even more value to our IT operations and customer satisfaction.
