HPE Introduces Industry-first Service to Optimize Public, Private and Hybrid Cloud Consumption
June 19 2018 - 02:00PM
Today, Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) announced HPE GreenLake
Hybrid Cloud, a new consumption experience designed to help
customers manage and optimize their on- and off-premises clouds.
HPE GreenLake Hybrid Cloud is an automated cloud operating model,
leveraging HPE’s leading intellectual property and standardized
with HPE best practices to help customers consume the exact cloud
resources they need, wherever their workloads live – while driving
improved performance, cost, security and compliance. By eliminating
the need for staff to manage the hybrid environment day-to-day, the
new solution helps diminish human error and enables staff to focus
on innovation.
Hybrid IT is the reality for most enterprises as it allows them
to blend a mix of applications, services and platforms, all
tailored to their needs. However, many enterprises struggle
with the complexity of operating different private, public and
hybrid clouds and having the right skills to oversee and manage
their cloud implementation, which can lead to unknown, unrestrained
cost and risk. According to Gartner by 2020, organizations that
lack cost optimization processes will average 40% overspend in
public cloud.1 In addition, many customers lack automation and
simple tools to unleash the agility of the cloud, and continuous
monitoring of controls and compliance frameworks to manage
risk.
HPE GreenLake Hybrid Cloud helps solve the problem of complex
management. It sets up processes to manage cloud resources in a
customer’s environment of choice; establishes specific cost,
security and compliance controls; and then manages those resources
on behalf of the customer. Unlike a traditional managed service,
GreenLake Hybrid Cloud offers an automated, cloud-native model that
is designed to eliminate the need for organizations to hire or
train new staff to oversee and manage cloud implementations.
“Enterprises need a fast, simple way to optimize their public
and on-premises clouds to enable applications and data under a
common operating model,” said Ana Pinczuk, SVP and GM of HPE
Pointnext. “HPE GreenLake Hybrid Cloud is a breakthrough solution
that removes the complexity of operating multiple clouds and
enables customers to maintain control, reduce costs and accelerate
time to value.”
HPE GreenLake Hybrid Cloud helps deliver rapid time to value,
simplified IT, and services for continuous management of specific
cost and compliance controls for public and on-premises clouds.
Leveraging the cloud architecture and implementation expertise from
HPE Pointnext through its acquisitions of Cloud Technology Partners
and RedPixie, HPE GreenLake Hybrid Cloud provides ongoing
management and optimization of customers’ environments in leading
cloud solutions such as AWS, Microsoft Azure and Azure Stack.
HPE GreenLake Hybrid Cloud is built on an automated toolset
featuring HPE OneSphere and HPE’s software-defined technology to
support and operate hybrid cloud workloads. Microsoft Azure Stack
is delivered using the HPE GreenLake flexible consumption model
that brings the pay-per-use2 approach to on-premises environments
using the HPE ProLiant for Microsoft Azure Stack.
“Looking at how companies like to optimize their cloud
experience, we find that 23% want to consume off premises
as-a-service and 35% on premises as-a-service with the remaining
being in a capex or leased model3,” said Rob Brothers, Program VP
for IDC. “HPE has created an offer with the acquisition of Cloud
Technology Partners and RedPixie that can span between the on and
off premises cloud.”
451 Research showed that two of the biggest challenges customers
face when implementing their cloud infrastructure are compliance
and cost management4. HPE GreenLake Hybrid Cloud helps solve these
challenges by offering key benefits:
- Accelerate time to value – Cloud-native,
automated operating model delivers shorter time to cloud and
increased speed of IT operation
- Pay-per-use – Consumption model and continuous
monitoring of cost control areas to align costs with business
needs helps reduce total cost of ownership (TCO) for on-premises
IT5
- Simplify IT – Expert services from HPE
Pointnext cut the “heavy lifting” in the data center and free staff
for strategic business value
- Keep proper control – Real-time alerting of
monitored control failures and remediation recommendations, as well
as continuous synchronization and monitoring controls for
compliance, helps customers have up to date information on what is
being monitored and helps reduce the unintended risks that come
from inexperience
HPE is a long-time leader in the consumption market. Based on
eight years of experience offering flexible consumption models to
customers, HPE Pointnext last year introduced HPE GreenLake, a
suite of consumption–based, infrastructure and workload solutions
that deliver IT outcomes in a pay-per-use model6 on premises. With
HPE GreenLake, customers can access a simple, pay-per-use model,
while maintaining control of the IT experience they deliver with
fast onboarding and no capital outlay.
