What is your primary use case for HPE SimpliVity?

My typical use case for HPE SimpliVity is essentially demanded from the customer for VMware workload in a same rack, where all the workloads on the same rack include compute, storage, network, and virtualization, making it a converged solution regarding virtualization.

The main use case for HPE SimpliVity is that the customer is a group of companies consisting of factories. They need virtual machines and want a complete, faster solution. That's why they purchased HPE SimpliVity for virtualized workloads. The customer purchased the HPE SimpliVity solution with the VMware vCenters.

We are actually in a corporate environment system, and we have that relationship with HPE and VMware. We use SimpliVity, and some of the other workloads are running on it.

I use the solution in my company to run approximately ten virtual machines in one region. HPE stated that my company could use SimpliVity without making any changes in our environment, especially the VMware environment. After installing HPE SimpliVity, my company saw that we could not update our central server without its permission. HPE SimpliVity must approve vCenter update, but it was not something that HPE had mentioned to our company. My company also learned that HPE SimpliVity does not support vCenter and VMware vSphere AK. HPE should have told us about the aforementioned details before we purchased HPE SimpliVity in our company, owing to which we are a bit disappointed with the tool.

In my company, we use HPE SimpliVity. Our company has four HPE SimpliVity nodes working in pairs because it works in the stretched cluster mode, and ensures the replication between data centers. Every virtual machine is replicated in the cluster. When Our company has some issues, some problem in one of the data centers or one of the hosts, the other can resume or move the workload and can start after five minutes, more or less the automation again. Our company can have some kind of high availability in our on-premises equipment.

Most of the installations are for branch offices that need an integrated solution for backup.

With SimpliVity, we can easily deploy multiple solutions, including storage, and allocate servers as needed. It's quite versatile.

We use it for HCI and backup.

We use this product when our customers need software protection, built-in backup, and an NDR solution. I'm a solutions specialist.

We are a solution provider. We don't usually use it for our own workload or for ourselves. We are partners of both Dell EMC and HPE. We sell their products and provide solutions based on their products to our end customers. It is being used in a mining company. I'm currently working with it to upgrade the storage capacity for the load that was sold.

We primarily use the solution for disaster recovery.

We are an SIEM integrator. We are working with a lot of products that our clients have, and we are studying products in our clients' production. It is mostly used for remote sites. It is sometimes also used for production. Its version depends on the customer.

The solution is used for server consolidation and, with SimpliVity and other hyper-converged solutions, we can reduce the footprint and we can give them added benefits, like backup, DR, compression, and deduplication. The main use case for SimpliVity is for backup and cloning, and rapid DR. If you take vSAN, we can say the selling point is server consolidation, and then you can start your STDC journey.

We are using HPE SimpliVity in a water distribution facility and for computer administration backups.

I use HPE SimpliVity for the virtual infrastructure of my servers.

We are a large enterprise and are partners of HPE. We use the solution for hyperconverged simple usage scenarios.

We are a partner of HPE. Our customer are using this solution to solve their auto-commerce infrastructure to give space for the process.

I use HPE SimpliVity for my private cloud, and all my production servers are running on this private cloud. My ERP software and the most important system, SAP, is running on HPE SimpliVity. Their metal server is physical, but all the other digital ecosystems or digital platforms are running on my private cloud in SimpliVity HPE.

The main use cases for this solution are consolidation and virtualization.

Our main use case for SimpliVity is VDI for Citrix and VMware.

The use case depends on what our customers need. We don't have SimpliVity on our infrastructure, but we deploy it at the customers' sites. Generally speaking, SimpliVity is for prediction, SAP, and VDI.

My primary use case is virtualization and data storage.

We implemented SimpliVity last year to attend to two client projects. Since the pandemic, we chose this solution to improve the VDI, the virtual desktop for staff.

We primarily use the solution for hyper-converged purposes.

The main reason for the selection was that SimpliVity ensures high availability, and, with the static cluster configuration, we are reasonably protected as we have two nodes with synchronous replication. That's why we feel comfortable enough to use this technology.

We purchased it about five years ago to replace our existing traditional SAN server VM environment. At that time, SimpliVity was the only platform that could house an enterprise-level SQL database. Nobody else had a platform that could handle SQL transactions without imploding. Everybody has got that figured out by now, and it is understandable. We are using an older version because we purchased SimpliVity before it was owned by HPE. After about six to eight months of its implementation, it was purchased by HPE. When we purchased it, it was on the Cisco UCS server platform.

We have sold about three SimpliVity solutions. They are very small implementations. The use cases are mostly related to virtualization in terms of getting rid of SAN for virtualization and making management easier.

We are using the SimpliVity HCI servers to work as a VDI solution. Mainly it's a VDI solution that is using the HCI nodes.

We are using it for SAP HANA. It is a hybrid solution. We updated to the latest version two months back.

One of the use cases was that a customer had around 10 servers, which stopped working. The customer wanted to replace all those servers with new ones. I proposed that they should use the SimpliVity solution in place of 10 servers with around 100TB of data in a discrete environment. SimpliVity is an on-premise solution. It's not cloud-based. We have four customers who deal with HP SimpliVity.

My main use case is hosting in-house applications as well as public applications over the cloud.

We run our 50+ virtual servers on SimpliVity and also use it for backups.

We are using the latest update. Our main use case involves the applying of core applications.

We are selling SimpliVity based on customer requirements which include HCI solutions with a lot of applications.

We use it for financial applications. We are a small organization, so it has all of our servers, financial applications, SQL database, file servers, etc. I believe we are up to date with the latest version for our hardware specs.

I work with medium-sized clients who have around 200 users. SimpliVity is a general-purpose solution for all kinds of VMs. With SimpliVity, because we can own the VMware, you can have all VMs of any type of VDI.

We are using BHPE SimpliVity for hosting infrastructure.

We are in the hospitality industry with 10 hotels, and all the systems are on HPE SimpliVity infrastructure. We have our 10 systems on the infrastructure, such as a huge hospitality application, finance, and material control systems.

We are using this solution for a VDI system.

We use it for our production system. We have many production systems.

We are a solution provider and we implement HPE products such as SimpliVity for our customers. I am not a customer and I do not use all of the products that we sell, although I know these solutions. SimpliVity is a product that also we use ourselves.

Typically, our customers use it to try to consolidate their solutions on VMware with multiple virtual machines — almost more than 15 in every case.

We have about 45 virtual servers running for the company. These include file servers, SQL servers, public safety, GIS, Exchange, and all other applications used by a local government.

We are using the solution for our customers. We buy and rent HPE SimpliVity to our customers as a SaaS.

We sell HP products. Hyperconvergence with SimpliVity is one of the main products that we are pushing. The virtual application is the main product. It is based on the virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI), but it is only an application. We sell this infrastructure to our customers and put the virtual application in this infrastructure.

I'm a service provider. I install it for my customers. I typically implement it for telecoms.

It is for the production virtual environment. I have virtualized almost 99 percent of my servers, and I'm using SimpliVity as a host for those virtual machines. It does what needs to be done for us. The main thing for us is to make sure that we can recover a failed VM on a different site if the primary site fails. We need to be able to recover on the DR site. The performance was the main focus.

We are using SimpliVity for VDI and virtual desktops. We are also using it for some small manufacturing sites.

We use it for VDI.

The primary use is to run the business, production, and Oracle.

We use it for hosting stuff for clients.

We're using it to refresh our retail stores.

We use it in a VMware environment that supports VMs.

We have a virtualized environment and we use it for backups and disaster recovery and to be able to store all of our data locally and replicate.

We use SimpliVity in our retail stores as a backup solution.

The primary use case is its an offsite virtualization. It runs all our servers at an offsite office in Brazil. Our main sites are in New York and London. We bought a company in Brazil that had aging hardware, so we replaced that with three nodes of the SimpliVity solution. Since it is small office and it does everything, you don't need to have a SAN nor a fancy network. It is a one stop shop, which was really good for this particular thing.

We use it for storage.

Our primary use case for SimpliVIty was around backup and disaster recovery. We were trying to replace our existing DR service platform, then consolidate our backups from the different solutions, whether that was Veeam on the VMware side, Robocopy for file shares, or Windows Backup or SQL backup for certain applications.

We are using this solution in Brazil.

We are in a stretched cluster environment. So far, it has been really good.

We use it for optimization of the platform for the virtualization.

We use it in our original data centers and large sites.

General purpose fertilization is our primary use case. This IT solution covers our hardware. We are using it in our VMware virtualization aesthetic to cover all the workloads within our region.

Our primary use case for this solution is to offer a combination of computing storage services to remote locations. It operates in our data centers.

Our primary use case for this solution is for our data center.

We're running more than 40 ESX 6.5 VMs on a two-node SimpliVity system. The SimpliVity nodes are at two different locations and operate in a stretched cluster mode. This provides mirroring of the flash storage in each node. Approximately half of our VMs run on the site on one node and the other half run on the site on two nodes. In the event of a node failure, all VMs will automatically run on the one good node.
