HPE SimpliVity – Product Analysis

HPE SimpliVity 380 and 2600 are Hyperconverged Infrastructure (HCI) appliances that run the proprietary OmniStack software on the HPE DL380 and Apollo 2600 platforms respectively. Each appliance is connected via Ethernet to form a scale-out, virtual SAN architecture using internal all-flash storage. Together with an embedded hypervisor, these appliances cluster to create a comprehensive compute platform for running virtual server workloads. Like other HCI solutions, HPE SimpliVity provides a standardized, agile infrastructure for supporting a wide range of potential use cases including ROBO, VDI, server virtualization and private cloud, to name a few.

OmniStack was the HCI solution developed by Westborough, MA start up SimpliVity that HPE acquired in early 2017. There are now over a dozen vendors marketing HCI appliances, besides HPE SimpliVity. Some of the competitive solutions include Nutanix Enterprise Cloud Platform, EMC VxRail, Pivot3 HCI, Cisco HyperFlex and NetApp HCI. These and the other leading products are included in the Evaluator Group Research Hyperconverged comparison matrix and associated Product Briefs, Analyses and Evaluation Guide.

Welcome

The vision behind everything in Futurum’s Custom Research practice is this: research should show you what is happening, what comes next, and what to do about it. It should be personal to each audience, easy for people to grasp, and structured so LLMs can reason over it accurately. And it should be fast and turnkey; you want answers now, not another project to carry for quarters.

Whether you are defining business, channel, or go-to-market strategy; evaluating vendors or justifying ROI; or commissioning research to fill an emerging market need, we have your back, with a program that answers your questions with the objectivity and credibility to drive real decisions.

To do it, we bring unmatched data to bear: Futurum research, surveys, and market projections; validated market feeds; ETR’s 15 years of insight from 10,000 technology decision-makers; G2’s buyer and user data; and what our analysts hear every day. Add leading primary collection, from AI-moderated voice interviews to surveys and analyst-led interviews, all turnkey, and every project comes out credible, nuanced, and actionable.

And we don’t just drop the results in your lap. For internal work, we provide analyst-led sessions, interactive dashboards, and a range of formats. For market-facing work, Futurum delivers turnkey activation and amplification that actually gets seen, by people and by LLMs, through our media and share of voice. This is research that moves decisions and markets.

We will meet you wherever you are, from a fast-turn brief to a multi-year program, and shape the work to your goals, timeline, and budget. The right program for your moment.

If any of this is useful, I would love to talk.
