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 most valuable feature of HPE Alletra Storage MP B10000 is that it is very easy to understand compared to other storage solutions, and the commands are also straightforward."
"The biggest advantage of the product is that it is designed for mission-critical workloads including high IOPS, low latency, and 100% data availability."
"The ease of use, the reporting, and the setup are excellent."
"The scalability is very good."
"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."
"The features of HPE Alletra Storage MP B10000 that I prefer most include its performance, which has benefited my organization by meeting our capacity requirements and enhancing operational efficiency as our data and capacity grow."
"HPE Alletra Storage MP B10000 takes advantage of Nimble DNA, which is a super feature and provides the best experience in the world."
"The features of HPE Alletra Storage MP B10000 that I appreciate the most are availability for the company."
"Overall, this is a good product with good performance."
"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."
 

Cons

"The marketplace should improve. There should be a more robust variety of vendors."
"It could be a good solution, but the performance and reliability depend on how the hardware is sustained for a longer duration, including the controllers and everything."
"One area that has potential for improvement is the replication side, as Alletra Direct GUI does not provide options to view replication details."
"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."
"I see some areas that could still be improved."
"In my opinion, the technical support by HPE is working, but unfortunately, they are quite focused on a break and fix level."
"There is the negative impact of the high price for HPE Alletra Storage MP B10000, which is costly considering economy-related price increases."
"They need to put back in the feature in which you can export volumes by set instead of individually. I mentioned this in a meeting I recently had with them."
"The response time for read requests can be improved. It is not as good as the solution from Pure Storage."
"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."
