HP has announced new solutions focused on helping businesses to leverage their VMware environments through faster time to implementation and greater return on investment. These new products and services are optimized for VMware vSphere, including new hyper-converged and all-flash storage systems announced earlier this month.
HP and VMware have collaborated to bring the industry’s first sales, support and go-to-market agreement for the VMware NSX network virtualization platform. It is designed to aid customers in accelerating the deployment of new high-performing applications, simplify data center fabric and operations and improve security while including a complete, end-to-end network virtualization consulting and support capabilities. In addition, HP’s hardware L2 GW solution will attain VMware certification.
HP has also announced more flexibility and selections of end-user computing solutions with VMware Horizon 6.1 and NVIDIA GRID. HP indicates that this will improve workplace productivity while delivering the widest range of choice and highest density graphics virtualization options available.
The new system is powered by HP OneView, thus giving customers a single management interface. The solutions are also optimized for VDI applications, offering variable, full lifecycle support options and open interoperability with third party top-of-rack networking switches and hypervisors from vendors.
In addition, these end-user computing solutions have the ability to support upwards of 3,500 users and are fully tested to run desktop virtualization applications at optimal performance. This allows customers to reduce provisioning time, cost, setup and installation errors with the flexibility to be built and delivered directly from HP (as well as by a certified channel partner) catering to the specific needs of the customer’s data center. This certainly has potential to free up a lot of time and resources.
HP has added the new Converged Architecture 700 (CA700) to the Converged Architecture partner program. The CA700 is based on the HP BladeSystem, HP 3PAR Storage, HP OneView and integration with VMware vSphere and VMware vRealize Operations, with the company indicating that it is the only integrated system with converged management across compute, storage, and fabric. It is mainly designed for private clouds and enabling mobile workforce and mixed workloads.
The CA700’s integrated stack also gives VMware administrators the ability to manage the entire stack as one. In addition, VMware administrators can deploy and expand clusters as well as perform day-to-day operations across the entire stack from the vSphere console, allowing customers to focus on applications and meeting business needs.
New HP services for VMware were also announced, enabling organizations to adapt to changing business dynamics all the while providing a secure, stable environment. These include:
