The HPE SN1700Q 64Gb Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapters (HBAs) enable any HPE ProLiant server to share a highly resilient storage array such as the HPE Alletra Storage Array. Any HPE ProLiant with a Fibre Channel (FC) HBA can be configured to share storage. This type of design is a Storage Area Network (SAN). A FC Switch is used between the HPE ProLiant servers and the storage to direct data traffic to and from the server and storage.

A SAN is an excellent design for high availability, and high performance, using block-based design complementary to databases, online transaction processing, and enterprise resource processing. The SAN also enables different generations of FC products to interconnect allowing for phased upgrades or longer investment protection options.

When server infrastructure may be limiting the performance of the OLTP and database operations, what server upgrades are necessary to address potential performance bottlenecks and achieve more effective results?
The HPE SN1720E 64Gb Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter is designed for demanding mission-critical workloads and emerging applications. It supports HPE ProLiant, HPE Alletra Storage servers, and HPE Cray / HPE Superdome servers in a Fibre Channel SAN. Compared to the previous generation, the HPE SN1700E FC HBAs offers higher bandwidth, better latency, enhanced security, and operational efficiency for 64GFC. It provides seamless backward compatibility to 32GFC and 16GFC networks. When using storage-intensive applications, such as backup/restore, database transactions, virtualization, and rich media, the increased performance of the 64GFC infrastructure enables rapid storage and retrieval of critical information.

Are you looking to modernize your data center with Non-volatile Memory Express (NVMe) paradigms, while insuring the integrity of your data is safe from malicious agents?

HPE Storage Networking NVMe-oF Adapters are advanced cloud network interface cards with NVMe offload capabilities and cryptographic functionalities to accelerate and secure mission-critical data center applications such as security, virtualization, SDN/NFV, Big Data, machine learning, and NVMe-based storage. We provide two adapter options. Either two ports of 100GbE connectivity or two ports of 25GbE connectivity paired with proven cryptographic capabilities that accelerate and secure cloud and data center workloads.

Storage acceleration such as NVMe-oF TCP are built into the adapters, enabling seamless upgrade paths from existing storage paradigms to NVMe and persistent memory semantics.

It also provides enhanced security for your data in an unsecure world.

Do you need a data-center-on-chip platform to deliver better performance for your HPC/edge environments?
The HPE Data Processing Unit is a cloud infrastructure processor that governs the offloading, acceleration, and isolation of tasks like networking, storage, security and management to improve efficiency and performance. This series features two default operating modes: DPU and SuperNIC. By leveraging DPU mode, a data center-to-business application separation is created, resulting in a zero trust infrastructure with customized operations and an overall reduction in the total cost of ownership. In SuperNIC mode, the DPU too runs as an enhanced solution for east to west traffic in GPU systems, enabling accelerated networking for AI computing. SuperNICs support workloads in power-efficient, low-profile designs and can provide superb AI workload efficiency through proven RoCE. Utilize the HPE Data Processing Unit for consistent and predictable performance for accelerating AI computing.
