HPE Apollo's after-sales support and technical support should be improved. The solution should provide fast delivery when it comes to replacing a particular product that is under warranty.

The solution's deployment, security, and scalability need improvement. In addition, a while back, we needed to get a GPU-intensive HPC workload. Our client still needed to accept HPE Apollo because it does not support HPC and that was what the client required. Also, one of our telco customers has said that after the installation of HPE Apollo for their telco requirement, the generically written things regarding the performance were not approved in their operational environment.
I would want to see the flexibility of being able to run various network protocols including InfiniBand, Fibre Channel, as well as iSCSI, with iSCSI going up to 100 gigabytes per second -that would be outstanding. That in conjunction with what Mellanox offers would provide us with a very high-speed networking interface. The other thing is we may could, perhaps, use more GPUs in the future, go from eight to 16 GPUs per instance. That could run head-to-head against the DGX-1, the DGX-2 that NVIDIA has developed in their own chassis. That would be interesting to see.
What is a rack server? A rack mount server is a computer that is designed to be set in a shelf-like structure called a server rack. Since rack servers are smaller than tower servers, they can be positioned in a bay. This means you can stack multiple rack servers on top of each other. The bay, or server rack, can accommodate all servers, storage units, security appliances, and similar devices you may need in a single space. Therefore, one of the advantages of rack servers is their...

The predictive analysis feature could be improved. We would like the solution to be able to implement automatically in the next release.
The solution could improve the hardware, such as the motherboard or servers. We have had hardware faults in the past.
We are quite happy with it, but its price and storage density can be better.
