Super Six Focus Areas for OEMs

Speed is at the heart of digital transformation: The rate of change and disruption in most industries today are forcing businesses to be agile to compete. These agility needs are not just raising the barโ€” they are changing the game for both IT and line of business leaders.

Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) OEM Solutions provides innovative solutions to a global customer base of leading OEMs seeking high performance, market-driven technology solutions. To address these rapidly scaling opportunities, OEM Solutions by HPE tailored six focus areas for their customers โ€“

 

  1. Everything As A Service

From consumer electronics to business-level IT, the Everything-as-a-Service model is dominating how technology is being paid for and delivered. Indeed, HPE launched GreenLake, a suite of pay-per-use solutions available for top customer workloads. The solutions include big data, backup, open database, SAP HANA, and edge computing. As part of its continued focus on providing customersโ€™ flexible consumption offerings, HPE is also rebranding and making enhancements to HPE GreenLake Flex Capacity, an infrastructure consumption service. 

 

Benefits include

Pay only for what you use                                                    

  • Meet or beat cloud economics
  • Aligns costs with monthly usage via advanced metering
  • No upfront payment
  • Save the costs of overprovisioning

Infrastructure capacity that never runs out

  • Scalable โ€“ add available capacity in minutes, not months
  • Avoid long procurement cycles
  • Manage capacity jointly with account team

Applies to a wide range of infrastructure

  • HPE and multivendor support
  • Hybrid-ready with certain Microsoft Azure services

 

  1. Intelligent Edge

Today, the Intelligent Edge is offering a breakthrough in advancing how โ€˜Insight to Actionโ€™ platforms can be delivered. Industry leaders like HPE and SAP now make it possible to connect your โ€œunconnectedโ€ enterprise assets, get access to data via sensors and persist the data right away at the Edge without sending it anywhere.  HPE is the market-leader in Converged Edge Systems. Edge as a Service (EaaS) makes it easy to create a flexible but straightforward IoT infrastructure that will meet the needs of your business today and tomorrowโ€”including defining and deploying the right IoT solution with the right infrastructure, management, security, and support. HPE Edge-as-a-service is a consumption/utility model. Customers do not purchase the hardware or software. Customers pay a monthly fee to HPE to install, monitor/operate/manage and secure their IOT infrastructure. This helps customers focus on their organizationโ€™s core business rather than on the IT infrastructure.

  1. The Shift To Software Defined

As OEMs increasingly face the need to stay competitive in a fast-paced, consumer driven-world, the one-size-fits-all approach is no longer working. Trends such as virtualization, cloud computing, Big Data analytics, and mobility are quickly overwhelming IT teams and pushing many traditional IT infrastructures to their limits. Legacy IT architectures are often siloed and hardware-oriented, with each platform having its management environment, hypervisor, and storage. This limits the ability to unify, automate, and streamline IT delivery, as well as suffocates flexibility and scalability. HPE software-defined infrastructure helps organizations across diverse verticals and geographical locations solve their IT challenges and meet their business needs.

 

Benefits Include

Optimize IT operations with continuous delivery

  • Improve data center efficiency, accelerate development, and empower IT operations with programmatic, repeatable processes that enable timely release cycles.
  • Simplify operations and lower costs
  • Increase productivity, efficiency, and control across your data center by automating infrastructure operations through a unified API and software-defined processes.

  1. From Storage To Flash

The third wave of the all-flash revolution

In a few years, we may well look back on 2018 as the year the hard disk era finally succumbed to rise of all-flash solid-state storage. With the costs of adopting these technologies falling and significant savings joining the long-held performance benefits, and as use cases in hybrid cloud and software-defined storage become ever-more compelling, the demand for all-flash will continue to grow and fuel digital transformation. Predictive all-flash storage from HPE is smart enough to eliminate issues before you even know theyโ€™re there. As part of this drive for faster, more responsive, agile and efficient IT systems that can keep pace with these high levels of data growth and app development, organizations are increasingly embracing hybrid cloud systems and software-defined storage. Both of which go hand-in-hand with all-flash storage solutions.

This trend will continue for some time, and as it does, we will see more enterprises adopt an all-flash mindset as they seek to transform their organizations for the data economy and set themselves up for future success.

Benefits Include

  • The first of these waves was driven by performance enhancements. Solid state drives (SSDs) were added to arrays to support workloads when all-flash was perceived as a more expensive medium, used initially to accelerate individual workloads for mission-critical applications โ€“ for example facilitating stock market trades in financial services firms.
  • The second of these waves was driven by economics. The total cost of operations (TCO) savings facilitated by all-flash arrays accelerated investment in SSDs, improving performance while keeping overall cost at hard disk drives (HDDs) levels.

 

HPE is committed to enabling OEM customersโ€™ success in their markets and applications. HPE OEM is bringing all these innovations to accelerate our OEMs businesses and transforming change into enduring success.
