Hewlett Packard Enterprise Unveils the World’s Most Scalable and Modular In-Memory Computing Platform

SINGAPORE – November
7, 2017 – Today, Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) revealed the world’s most
scalable and modular in-memory computing platform, HPE Superdome Flex. The
platform enables enterprises of any size to process and analyze massive
amounts of data and turn it into real-time business insights.

In a world transformed
by exponential data growth, customers face a complex dilemma – how to handle
unprecedented data flows while maintaining business continuity and agility to
quickly respond to business changes. One way companies are tackling this
challenge is by leveraging in-memory databases, such as SAP HANA, Oracle
Database In-Memory and Microsoft SQL Server. HPE is the global leader for SAP
HANA as approximately 50 per cent of SAP HANA server deployments are on HPE
systems. 

In order
to harness the full value of in-memory computing, the underlying
infrastructure must be capable of addressing large data sets and process
analytics without slowing transactions to achieve real-time insights. HPE Superdome
Flex has a unique modular design that scales seamlessly so enterprises can
keep pace with evolving data demands, while unmatched reliability capabilities
provide a resilient platform that safeguards critical workloads.

“Customers want to
harness all of their data to derive actionable insights in real-time to make
more impactful business decisions,” said Randy Meyer, vice president and
general manager, Synergy & Mission Critical Servers, Hewlett Packard
Enterprise. “With HPE Superdome Flex, customers can capitalize on in-memory
data analytics for their most critical workloads and scale seamlessly as data
volumes grow.”

HPE’s latest mission
critical in-memory computing platform combines the reliability of HPE Integrity
Superdome X with the scalable technology for high performance data analytics
that HPE gained with its acquisition of
SGI. HPE Superdome
Flex enables customers to:

·       Turn data into actionable insights at
unparalleled scale and in real-time: Designed with Memory-Driven
Computing principles, HPE
Superdome Flex provides a shared pool of memory over an ultra-fast fabric
that’s capable of scaling from 768GB to 48TB in a single system, delivering
unmatched compute power for the most demanding applications.

·       Start small and grow seamlessly: The platform has a unique modular design that
scales from four to 32 sockets in four-socket increments. This equips customer
environments of all sizes with in-memory computing that can expand seamlessly
and cost-efficiently as needs increase.
