Product description
For customers who are looking for a simple, agile and highly available virtualization system, the HPE ConvergedSystem 200-HC StoreVirtual family eliminates complex solution stacks by combining powerful HPE servers and mature data services from HPE Storage into one building block for environments running on VMware vSphere. The HPE ConvergedSystem 250-HC StoreVirtual System is based on the developed HPE server technology and provides a turnkey hyper-converged, virtualization solution for medium sized businesses and enterprises. Designed from the ground up for the software-defined data center, this hard drive array enables a straightforward formulaic deployment of IT, regardless of whether used as a primary virtualization platform in medium-sized businesses or as a dedicated resource pool for specific applications in the enterprise, such as desktop virtualization. It is customized and ready for virtualized workloads within 15 minutes after start-up.
Product features
- Storage clustering simplifies scalability
Storage clustering allows a customer to consolidate multiple storage nodes into pools of storage. All available capacity and performance is aggregated and available to every volume in the cluster. As storage needs increase the CS 250-HC StoreVirtual can scale performance and capacity on-line. - Network RAID delivers higher levels of data availability
Network RAID stripes and protects multiple copies of data across a cluster of storage nodes, eliminating any single point of failure in the array. Applications have continuous data availability in the event of a disk, controller, storage node, power, network, or site failure. - Thin provisioning reduces costs by increasing storage efficiency
Thin provisioning allocates space only as data is actually written without requiring pre-allocation of storage. This raises the overall utilization and efficiency of this array, reduces costs and ultimately increases the ROI. - Remote Copy reduces costs for disaster recovery
Remote Copy replicates snapshots between the hard drive arrays at primary and remote locations. Copies are thinly provisioned with no space reservation required. Remote Copy enables centralized backup and disaster recovery on a per-volume basis and leverages application integrated snapshots for faster recovery. Remote Copy makes this array the perfect fit for regional data centers. - Integrated replication for disaster recovery
This hard drive array includes integrated replication that simplifies management with simple failover and failback.
