In today’s digital-first economy, technology spending is limited
for most SMBs. With HPE MSA, SMBs can preserve cash with an updated
entry storage solution that continues to get better with new data
services and a modern architecture. HPE MSA also allows SMBs to
ensure their most valuable data is secure and easily accessible by
employees, no matter where they are working from. Through its new
data services and a modernized architecture, HPE MSA enables
customers who run on-demand businesses - like media streaming and
online education - to manage their distributed applications and
workloads more easily.
“The HPE MSA is ideal for the clients we serve whose businesses
require a reliable, simple and low-cost storage solution that can
match today’s workloads, and scale as their performance and
capacity needs grow,” said Sky Cumming, Product Manager, Dicker
Data, an IT distributor and HPE channel partner. “The auto tiering
capabilities provide the performance needed to power their
applications, and the archive storage provides a flexible
enterprise-grade storage solution at an entry-level price point.
The new HPE MSA Health Check tool protects against attacks and
predicts failures before they happen so small businesses can focus
on making their business thrive without an IT headache.”
Advancements to the HPE MSA Gen 6 Architecture
Updates to HPE MSA deliver benefits that help to meet the needs
of SMBs, including automatic tiering for faster data access, an
improved MSA Health Check tool that eliminates common causes of
downtime, and integration with HPE Cloud Volumes Backup for cloud
backup and data archival. The new features include:
- Hands-free tiering that delivers workload efficiency with
improved performance and lower latencies. This feature boosts
delivered performance by 2 – 4x compared to hard disk drive
(HDD)-only configurations, and allows the array to respond to
changing workloads utilizing a small amount of solid state drives
(SSDs). This feature moves the hottest data to the fastest media in
real-time, allowing customers to more effectively maximize SSD
performance and HDD capacity based on workload needs.
- A new level of in-array data protection with the new MSA Data
Protection Plus (MSA DP+). This protection capability spans all
drives, and eliminates idle HDD spares to improve overall system
efficiency and performance. In the event of a drive failure, MSA
DP+ would speed rebuild times by 25x2, dramatically minimizing the
time the array was in a degraded or vulnerable state.
- Improved MSA Health Check tool that eliminates common causes of
downtime. With this tool, data shows that 76% of HPE MSA support
calls will be eliminated for customers who utilize the MSA Health
Check functionality proactively. This cloud-base tool reduces local
administration overhead by searching sensor data for known issues,
and adherence to best practices, improving the user experience and
maximizing availability.
- Integration with HPE Cloud Volumes Backup to provide customers
a simple and inexpensive route to cloud-based data protection,
while saving money on a separate backup appliance. SMBs can
instantly start backing up to the cloud with HPE Cloud Volumes
Backup, a built-in enterprise cloud backup service using HPE
Recover Manager Central, without changing any existing backup
workloads. HPE Cloud Volumes Backup cloud services are also now
available through HPE GreenLake.
“HPE has continually built on and refined the MSA product family
for six generations, focusing on the balance between performance
and affordability, as well as looking at the simplicity and
customer experience,” said Chris Powers, VP and GM for Big Data and
Collaborative Platform Development and HPE. “HPE MSA is helping
SMBs by delivering the performance and automation they need to keep
their businesses running. We take pride in providing our customers
with a reliable and fast solution at an affordable price so that
their businesses can serve their clients efficiently.”
HPE has a robust portfolio of solutions for SMBs, including the
recently announced monthly subscription service for secure,
easy-to-use IT solutions through HPE channel partners, and the HPE
MicroServer, providing a small office-in-a-box solution for a
complete small office technology foundation.
Pricing and Availability
The HPE MSA Gen 6 is now available for order globally direct and
through channel partners starting under $7,000.
