AMD EPYC™ Processors Enable Next Generation of Hewlett Packard Enterprise Storage
June 10 2021 - 9:00AM
AMD (NASDAQ: AMD) announced that AMD EPYC™ processors are powering
the new Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) Alletra 6000, a
cloud-native data infrastructure storage solution that powers
business critical applications with the cloud experience.
The new HPE Alletra 6000 takes advantage of the AMD EPYC 7002
series processors, which have the ability to scale from 8 to 64
high-performance cores and the increased generational bandwidth of
PCIe® 4 support to offer up to 3X faster performance than previous
HPE Nimble Storage All Flash Arrays. HPE Alletra 6000 represents a
bold paradigm shift for data infrastructure as it enables IT to
shift from owning and maintaining data infrastructure to simply
accessing and utilizing it on-demand and as-a-service.
“AMD EPYC processors give the HPE Alletra 6000 an
ultra-efficient architecture that is designed to deliver fast,
consistent performance with industry leading data efficiency,” said
Omer Asad, vice president and general manager, Primary Storage, HCI
& Data Management Services at HPE. “We were able to leverage
the high core counts and increased bandwidth supported by PCIe® 4
capabilities of AMD EPYC processors, to deliver a high-performance
system, that provides great efficiency for business-critical
workloads with strict SLAs for availability and performance.”
With the new HPE Alletra 6000, AMD EPYC processors are helping
HPE power the next generation of storage and enable customers to
get access to a new solution that:
- Provides a wide range of core counts from 8 to 64 with the EPYC
7252, EPYC 7302, EPYC 7502 or EPYC 7742,
- Doubles the amount of storage processing per socket compared to
previous generations,
- Supports up to 54 SAP Hana nodes, and a maximum of 216 SAP Hana
nodes using the HPE Alletra 60901 enabled by high compute and
connectivity features from AMD EPYC 7002 processors,
- Creates a holistic HPE GreenLake system powered by AMD EPYC
processors, that delivers on the Unified DataOps vision, with Data
Services Cloud Console and cloud data services.
“We are excited to further strengthen our relationship with HPE
as they drive towards a new era of enterprise storage solutions,”
said Rajneesh Gaur, corporate vice president and general manager,
Embedded Business Unit, AMD. “AMD EPYC processors deliver 2X cores
per socket compared to the previous generation of HPE storage
solutions and unmatched storage bandwidth with 128 lanes of PCIe®
4, enabling HPE storage customers with new levels of core density
and storage performance.”
AMD EPYC Processor Ecosystem GrowsAMD EPYC
processors continue to support new solutions and hardware, making
it easier for customers to experience the performance and
capabilities of AMD EPYC CPUs within their data center or hybrid
cloud environment.
