Hyperconverged Infrastructure
HPE SimpliVity
HPE SimpliVity combines compute, storage and virtualization infrastructure for sites that want a smaller operational footprint. The useful comparison is not HCI against separate hardware in general. It is the exact licensing, growth, recovery and support model your sites need.
Use this page to
decide whether SimpliVity reduces work for your sites without creating a licensing, scaling or support problem later.
What You Need to Sort First
- HCI can simplify deployment and local operations, especially across repeated sites with similar needs.
- Confirm the hypervisor, licensing and management model in the exact offer. Those details can change the economics more than hardware price.
- Scale the design with a realistic growth case, not only the first-day workload.
- Test backup, recovery and node failure before treating built-in resilience as a completed recovery plan.
