High‑availability block storage has protected critical research workloads and boosted VMware IOPS
It is difficult to provide specific areas for improvement at this time. We may realize approximately 20% gains in the future, but the previous SAN we used was not very time-consuming, so the improvement is not very significant. We anticipate gains of approximately 10 to 20%. The management interface could be simplified. The cloud console contains two main sections: one for hardware and one for logical volumes on the LUNs being managed. This split is understandable because the hardware console contains HPE Alletra Storage MP B10000 for block storage and HPE Alletra for backup, both accessible in the same console. The separation of the SAN hardware console and the backup console is logical and understandable. We have four compute nodes, and the system was not designed to shut down gracefully with only two compute nodes remaining. Running with just one compute node functions properly, and the system continues to operate at reduced capacity. However, when we experienced a crash involving half of the system, HPE Alletra Storage MP B10000 failed completely. This behavior is documented as normal in the documentation, but we hoped the block storage could manage to run with half the power. This capability will be available in a future release but is not included in the current version. Our testing before moving to production was not entirely successful, but this aligns with the documented specifications. When we perform failover and data center crash tests, the system performs very well. We have deliberately crashed all four compute nodes, and the secondary storage site manages the workload without any virtual machines malfunctioning. This level of reliability is excellent, and it demonstrates why we selected HPE Alletra Storage MP B10000. Improvements in this area would make the solution even stronger.

Good performance, suitable for big data, but the response time could be improved
The primary use case for this product is high-performance storage This product has good performance. It is similar to the Dell PowerMax and Pure Storage FlashArray. The InfiniBox has three active controllers. The response time for read requests can be improved. It is not as good as the solution…

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The features of HPE Alletra Storage MP B10000 that I prefer the most are the snapshotting and ease of administration."
"The unified management experience has been great. That's a huge advantage."
"The biggest advantage of the product is that it is designed for mission-critical workloads including high IOPS, low latency, and 100% data availability."
"If your production has 100% uptime, this is a very significant achievement for any company because there is no downtime."
"An example of how the features of HPE GreenLake for File Storage have been benefiting my organization is through the reliability and stability we experience, as the engineering team that takes care of it, plus my team that reports up to me, are very comfortable with the technology, which has been reliable, and HPE's support has been fantastic."
"HPE Alletra Storage MP B10000 enables line-of-business users and database administrators to self-provision storage easily, definitely helps to reduce the time required for storage provisioning and management by around 30%, and supports my sustainability goals by being more compact than 3PAR while enabling deduplication and compression to reduce power, cooling, and rack space needs."
"HPE Alletra Storage MP B10000 saves time on storage management, making it very simple to manage and monitor the global block storage environment with a single cloud console, and HPE has made it easy for the end user to manage the HPE ecosystem, even providing an on-premises experience almost like that in the cloud."
"HPE Alletra Storage MP B10000 reduces the time I spend on storage provisioning and management, saving about 50% of my time because by default I configure the host groups and host volumes, and if I need to add one more storage to the VMware environment, I put it in the group and it automatically presents to all of the hosts."
"Mostly, their support is also great at reacting to issues but moreover, proactive to prevent issues."
"Its ease of use, smooth integration into the existing environment, quick and easy management, the number of other features available such as snaps, remote replica, etc are valuable features."
"Overall, this is a good product with good performance."
 

Cons

"When the system first came out, it had some problems with the Data Center Cloud Console, which made implementation difficult."
"There are areas for improvement in support, and they still have potential to be better."
"The marketplace should improve. There should be a more robust variety of vendors."
"HPE Alletra Storage MP B10000 could be improved by integrating it with GreenLake, as this would enable us to do end-to-end monitoring across both on-prem and cloud environments better."
"I do see a negative aspect in HPE Alletra Storage MP B10000 because this platform is focused on enterprise customers and has been built for scalability of 500 or more virtual instance environments."
"I would appreciate improvements in performance monitoring to create custom reports."
"The pricing of HPE Alletra Storage MP B10000 is not very cheap but it is not very expensive either. It has some pricing disadvantages compared to Huawei storage, as we also sell sometimes Huawei storages."
"We are facing issues related to your services and support with HPE Alletra Storage MP B10000."
"InfiniBox, right now, offers only asynchronous replication between two storages."
"The solution isn’t scalable by itself. It’s a self-contained storage solution, i.e., if you need more space, buy another box."
"The response time for read requests can be improved. It is not as good as the solution from Pure Storage."
