Analyzing the Economic Benefits of Hewlett Packard Enterprise GreenLake for Private Cloud Business Edition
Today’s IT and VM administrators are challenged to meet the growing needs of businesses while reducing technology cost and complexity. Hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI) has addressed the complexity challenges for general-purpose workloads but does not cost-efficiently deliver the highest levels of performance and resiliency required for business-critical workloads. TechTarget’s Enterprise Strategy Group validated that HPE GreenLake for Private Cloud Business Edition with Alletra dHCI delivers the HCI-like experience of unified management and automated, VM-centric operations with greater resiliency, faster performance, and flexibility at scale—with AI-assisted support and deep VM analytics.
Enterprise Strategy Group validated the economic benefits that customers have realized since deploying the solution based on HPE Alletra dHCI and used this as the basis to compare the solution with several alternative vSAN-based HCI configurations from a leading vendor. The standard VMware vSAN sizing tool was used to generate configurations to meet the needs of a typical business-critical workload consisting of a mix of general purpose VMs and transactional databases. Our five-year total cost of ownership (TCO) model found that the HPE solution was able to meet the needs of the workload at a cost that was up to 2.5x lower, while providing lower latency and higher levels of resiliency. The HPE solution provided up to a 56% reduction in virtualization licenses, 55% lower cost of acquisition, and 53% reduction in operational overhead to deploy, administer, maintain, and support the system.
