HPE PRIMERA

  • The World’s Most Intelligent storage

Coming to you live from California at the Tech Field Day event, #TFDx, @HPE_Storage , #NthSymp2019

 

Presenting Alex Veprinsky

Constant Challenges for I. T.

 

  • Complex Infrastructure
  • Constant Fire-Fighting
  • Fragmented Data Silos

 

Introducing HPE PRIMERA

HPE PRIMERA Foundation elements

  • Powerful New Architecture
  • Build for Intelligence
  • Redefined Management

 

Architected for speed and intelligence

 

Flexible and Powerful Architure

 

All-Active

All-active and lock-less with no single point of failure

Memory-Driven

Optimized for SCM and NVMe

Intelligent

Predicts and prevents disruptions that prevent outages

 

Manage performance at Scale

 

Today vs Ideal

Latency at scale as IOPS increase,  SCSI has challenges. NVMe comes into play.

 

Understanding Storage

Servers > Fabric > Nodes > Backend.

 

Built for NVME, Optimized for SCM.

CPU , CPU

ASIC, ASIC, ASIC,

no cpu on ASIC’s

 

Latency response is important.

Cache hits and IO deliver to the backend have a IOPS impact.

PRIMERA delivers most I/O in .03 MS , without NVMe

 

Predictable, Low Latency even at scale.

  • All-Active
  • Memory-driven
  • Lockless

1.5m IOPS at 44GB/S

NVME ROADMAP

Current support for Front End NVMe with Fiber Support. Example Linux. NVMe with roce on 200G as a example,

 

The Service-Centric OS Architecture

 

Monolithic 

Moving away from this

Service-centric

To this. Software features will be service deliverable as a example.

Intgelligance Changes Everything.

 

On-Array

Tune the sytem in real-time

On-Prem

View statturation, trouble shooting at the datacenter level

Cloud

 

Embedded, Self-optimizing AI Engine

  • Anomaly detection
  • Hotspot detection
  • Workload prediction
  • “what if” scenarios
  • Estimate saturation
  • Forecast system load

PRIMERA AI Pipeline

 

Collect > Learn > Identify, score > Correlate > Act.

 

AI/ML Offers Multiple Insights into Data Center

  • Topology insights
  • Performance insights
  • Workload insights

 

Example

Performance insights 

  • Key Performance Indicators
  • Saturation
  • Problem space
  • Performance

Allows the identification in real time, to shorten resolution.

Workload Insights

Allows you to compare workloads with other customers.

 

Whats Next?

Next-Step AI-RUN Storage

Traditional Storage System vs intelligent Storage System.

Using AI Model to Optimize Tunevv

  • Impact of tunevv
  • Forcast
  • AI in action

Allows identification of customer workload patterns.

Upgrading has never been so easy fo High-End Storage.

  • Efficient scaling
  • Simple refresh
  • Intelligent updates.

Scale up, Scale out, Scale up and out – non-disruptively

Either and or flexibility

 

HPE PRIMERA is truly timeless

  • All inclusive licensing
  • Free controller upgrade options
  • Availability & data reduction guarantee

 

Protect your applications

  • Resilient
  • Protected
  • Predictive

 

Powerful Native Replication

  • peer persistence
  • synchronous
  • periodic

Secure Quorum witness

peer persistence – Zero RPO RTT latency < 5ms Automatic failover.

Sync, IP over 10Gbe or FC. 

Synchronous – Zero PRO RTT latency < 5 ms manual failover

Async periodic 5 + min interval RTT latency < 1s manual failover.

 

Heterogeneous Data protection and mobility

HPE Recovery manager central between platforms.
