Intelligent Storage That Manages Itself for Every Mission-Critical Application

Every organization, regardless of industry or size, relies on mission-critical workloads that represent the keys to unlocking innovation, outpacing the competition, and ultimately redefining the marketplace. Yet IT teams are often overwhelmed by the demands of both new and existing mission-critical applications because they're consumed with provisioning, troubleshooting and supporting infrastructure. In a landscape where sacrificing resiliency for agility is no longer acceptable, organizations need a smarter approach to storage—one that eliminates complexity and empowers IT to focus on what truly drives business value.

Enter HPE Primera, the world's most intelligent storage platform for mission-critical applications. HPE Primera delivers the agility of the cloud while raising the bar on resiliency and performance, enabling innovation without compromise. Built upon proven resiliency and powered by HPE InfoSight, HPE Primera provides instant access to data with storage that sets up in minutes, tunes itself, and upgrades transparently. Organizations can deploy, manage, and scale their storage in 93% less time than other traditional storage platforms—freeing IT teams to pursue strategic initiatives rather than firefighting infrastructure issues.

As a trusted HPE partner, Derive Technologies helps businesses across healthcare, financial services, government, education, and the commercial SMB space design and implement HPE Primera solutions that are cost-effectively tailored to their unique operational demands. Whether you need to consolidate traditional and next-generation applications on a single platform or transition to a fully managed, consumption-based model through HPE GreenLake, Derive's consultative approach ensures you get the most out of this transformative storage technology from day one.

App-Aware Resiliency, Predictive Intelligence, and a Simplified Ownership Experience

HPE Primera is engineered to deliver an enhanced yet simplified user experience across every stage of the storage lifecycle. It is simple to install—customers can self-install HPE Primera in less than 20 minutes. It is simple to manage—storage can be provisioned within seconds, with built-in, always-on data reduction and the flexibility to turn it off as needed. It is simple to upgrade—HPE Primera features a services-centric OS that decouples data services so they can be quickly deployed, upgraded, or restarted independently and without any disruption. And it is simple to own—customers can deploy HPE Primera as a service with a fully managed experience through HPE GreenLake, paying only for what they use. For CapEx purchases, the ownership experience is transformed with Timeless Storage for HPE Primera, ending forklift upgrades and delivering a non-disruptive controller refresh, all-inclusive software, and storage guarantees for data reduction and availability.

At the heart of HPE Primera's value proposition is its app-aware resiliency, designed to deliver a 100% Availability Guarantee. The first layer of protection starts with an all-active resilient design center developed to maintain availability while delivering predictable performance at all times. Intelligent and advanced software protects against silent data corruption, providing end-to-end data integrity, while automatic site failover facilitates business continuity and extends data protection to the cloud. Unlike traditional storage that stops there, HPE Primera also comes with HPE InfoSight, which brings the power of predictive analytics, artificial intelligence, and machine learning to predict and prevent disruptions across storage, servers, and virtual machines. Since more than 90% of issues arise from above the storage layer, HPE InfoSight's ability to see beyond the storage walls—analyzing application patterns across 1,250 trillion data points over the past decade—has prevented thousands of disruptions and saved customers over 1.5 million work hours. Its embedded AI engine shows you in real-time whether resource contention issues will arise, enabling safe consolidation at scale without impacting speed and availability.
