Works reliably for virtualization workloads and has supported smooth migrations from legacy systems

The features and capabilities of HPE Alletra Storage MP B10000 that I have found most valuable include very good and fast hardware controllers and CPUs. The new systems have features similar to the old Nimble, such as virtual lock or ransomware snapshots to save the data. Regarding the predictive analytics feature of HPE Alletra Storage MP B10000, you can analyze information over the DSCC, the Data Center Cloud Console, where you can see a lot of information to indicate whether the system has had problems or not In my opinion, it helps optimize data management for the customers fairly well, though I have no definitive assessment.

Enables us to fine-tune storage and capacity on the fly as our needs grow or shrink over time

NetApp delivers High Availability. It's critical to our work. That was the main driver for using NetApp. We have a highly resilient service and if you have a highly resilient service, you are only as resilient as the least resilient part of your infrastructure. That's what we were having trouble with our file system before. It was becoming troublesome, so we needed to find something that was much more highly resilient so that's why we moved to NetApp. The complexity of moving large numbers of files to the cloud depends on what you're trying to do. But for us, it was really simple. I imagine for large enterprise customers it is probably pretty tricky. They're probably on all different technologies inside a large corporation and they may or may not have very large pipes going to them. So if you're in a data center to the cloud then it's going to be easy, but if you have hundreds of branches like if you're a bank and have lots of branch banks, they might have very small pipes out to the internet. It might take forever. In our use case everything's brand new files, so it was pretty trivial. We didn't migrate to the cloud, we were already on the cloud, so it was a nonissue for us. NetApp enables us to share data across VMs. It actually reduced the amount of data storage we need. We were having to have storage attached to each VM. And now we can aggregate that storage across multiple VMs, so that actually gave us a net reduction, which was a good thing. We switched from using block storage to file storage to share data between our VMs. It made it easier, frankly but I worry about the scalability in the future. For the moment it made life easier. We were using block and then we moved back to file with NetApp.

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 most include its performance, which has benefited my organization by meeting our capacity requirements and enhancing operational efficiency as our data and capacity grow."

"The features of HPE Alletra Storage MP B10000 that I appreciate the most are availability for the company."

"The ease of use, the reporting, and the setup are excellent."

"The feature I like is that I can create a template and apply it to multiple switches. I don't have to do the same task on every switch, and the same goes for access points. It's central management, with the features that come with central management."

"Today I get a better deduplication level compared to the previous generations. That means the price per gigabyte or terabyte is lower for me."

"The features of HPE Alletra Storage MP B10000 that I prefer the most are the snapshotting and ease of administration."

"Moving to a consumption model is highly desirable from the client side. everyone seems to be moving in that direction."

"The unified management experience has been great. That's a huge advantage."

More HPE Alletra Storage MP B10000 pros

"In terms of its storage snapshot efficiencies, the service is highly efficient. We are only doing things in small batches right now because we have not converted all of the data, but we have tested them in the Google Cloud and they work efficiently."

"High availability is very important to us because we have a production environment. High availability is the highest priority for us to continue keeping our systems running."

"Storage was taking up maybe 10 to 20% of my life at the startup, and now it takes up zero. I was personally running all the infrastructure for the company. Now that we've moved to NetApp, I don't have to worry about making sure it's up and running. It's made my life personally much better."

Cons

"You need two different boxes for block and file storage."

"They take a long time to return the action plan after I send the logs. It takes them one to two days to respond."

"The classifying of the data could be better."

"I would like to see HPE GreenLake for File Storage improved in terms of the program's speed, as the administration, creation of change orders, issuance of those orders, and shipping of products take a while."

"The debugging of devices could use improvement. Connection problems on devices as well."

"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."

"With support, occasionally, we have a little trouble escalating things."

"The solution could improve the integration with sustainability-related services. A lot of clients ask us about that."

More HPE Alletra Storage MP B10000 cons

"It would help if they increased the area in which they employ artificial intelligence, by starting to do assessments on the environments, to project those. They're not using any AI tools, currently, on the administrative side."

"The user interface has room for improvement. We would like this service to be more integrated with Azure, which is very easy to manage and use. It was easy to create volumes and add capacity pools in Azure, but in Google Cloud, we can only create separate volumes. We need more management or configuration options in the user interface."

"I would like for the sales team to get in contact more often and let me know what I should be doing next, what we should be doing about new features. So it would be nice if I heard a little bit more from him. From a technology perspective, I have no complaints."

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available

"We don't need so much space, and there is no option to pay as we go or use just what we need. Also, the only way to increase performance is by increasing the level of the service."
