HPE Extends Industry Leading ProLiant Gen10 Portfolio to Deliver Breakthrough Economics in Server Virtualization
November 20 2017 - 7:45AM
Hewlett Packard Enterprise (NYSE:HPE) today announced the HPE
ProLiant DL385 Gen10 server in partnership with AMD, offering up to
50 percent lower cost per virtual machine (VM) than traditional
server solutions.
Server virtualization continues to be an essential tool in
improving agility in modern IT environments. In fact, 41 percent of
new server shipments will be virtualized in 2020 up from 33 percent
in 20151. Additionally, enterprises report savings of almost 20
percent from virtualizing their servers2 and are constantly
striving to lower the cost of virtualization. The new HPE ProLiant
DL385 leverages the AMD EPYC™ System on a Chip (SoC) to enable
customers to achieve greater utilization and ROI while delivering
unmatched security for virtualized workloads.
“HPE is focused on bringing to market the most innovative
technology that delivers the best value for our customers so they
can accelerate the delivery of new ideas, products and services,”
said Justin Hotard, VP and GM, Volume Global Business Unit at
Hewlett Packard Enterprise. “With the HPE ProLiant DL385, we are
extending the world’s most secure industry standard server
portfolio with the AMD EPYC SoC to optimize performance and
security that deliver a breakthrough in value and consumption
options for customers running virtualized and memory-centric
workloads.”
The HPE ProLiant DL385 delivers unmatched security via the HPE
Silicon Root of Trust, a unique link between the HPE Integrated
Light Out (iLO) silicon and the iLO firmware to ensure servers do
not execute compromised firmware code. The HPE Silicon Root of
Trust is connected to the AMD Secure Processor in the AMD EPYC™ SoC
so that the AMD Secure Processor can validate the HPE firmware
before the server is allowed to boot.
The HPE ProLiant DL385 and AMD Secure Processor also enable:
- Secure Encrypted Memory − all or a portion of
the memory can be encrypted to protect data against memory hacks
and scrapes.
- Secure Encrypted Virtualization − VMs and the
hypervisor each have separate encryption keys, isolating the VMs
from one another and from the hypervisor itself to protect access
to data in shared guest data areas.
“The AMD EPYC SoC delivers a better balance of cores, memory,
and I/O to deliver optimal performance based upon todays
workloads,” said Scott Aylor, Corporate VP and GM Enterprise
Business Unit at Advanced Micro Devices. “EPYC allows the HPE
ProLiant DL385 Gen10 to support more virtual machines per server,
process more data in parallel, access more local storage, while
providing unprecedented security.”
HPE offers the HPE ProLiant DL385 with flexible IT consumption
models and special financial programs. HPE Flexible Capacity
enables customers to pay for IT as it is consumed, managing
unpredictable demands and raising utilization levels.
Ninety-day deferred payments, 0% financing and trade-in
programs make the HPE ProLiant DL385 even more affordable.
