Your customer is a software development company. They have acquired another company and now want to consolidate their IT environment within their primary site. This includes the replacement of their outdated server environment as well as the consolidation of the required networking infrastructure. They need flexibility for often changing virtual workloads and reduced operational complexity. They have limited space and power within their data center. They are not able to expand their IT workforce right now and therefore need to optimize and automate repeating management tasks. Which HPE server technology should you recommend?
HPE Synergy is the premier recommendation for consolidation projects requiring high flexibility and low management overhead. As a composable infrastructure, Synergy integrates compute, storage, and networking into a single frame, which directly addresses the customer's limited space and power footprint. The inclusion of HPE Virtual Connect technology simplifies the networking infrastructure by reducing the number of cables and external switches needed for virtual workloads. For a company unable to expand its IT staff, Synergy's integration with HPE OneView provides powerful automation capabilities. It uses software-defined templates to automate repeating management tasks like firmware updates and server provisioning. This allows the existing workforce to manage a larger, consolidated environment more efficiently. Rack-based ProLiant servers would require significantly more cabling and manual networking configuration, which would not meet the customer's requirement for reduced complexity and automation.
