Let's have a brief about HPE SimpliVity solution before scrolling down to get through the detailed specs of HPE ProLiant DL325 Gen10 v2.

What is HPE SimpliVity Hyper-converged Infrastructure Solution

According to HPE, it is different from traditional HCI comes with compromises including higher costs, lack of built-in data protection, and poor data efficiency across multiple sites.

HPE SimpliVity is an efficient, all-in-one, HCI solution that reduces complexity and lowers overhead by simplifying operations from edge to core. Ideal for general-purpose, edge, and VDI workloads, its infrastructure and advanced data services are efficiently packed into a single, scalable building block, allowing customers to start small and grow. With simple management, two-node high availability (HA), built-in data protection, and hyper data efficiency across all edge sites and data centers, HPE SimpliVity simplifies and collapses the IT stack and reduces the total cost of ownership.

What does HPE SimpliVity do?

The hyper efficiency baked into HPE SimpliVity improves application performance, frees up storage, and accelerates local and remote backup and restore functions. HPE SimpliVity solution guarantee a 90% capacity savings across storage and backup combined — and you enjoy 10:1 data efficiency.
