The benefits have been in terms of high performance and scalability. We are running workloads for hospitals, pharmacies, general practitioners, and mental care. They are on 24/7, so our data center needs that high availability for our customers. HPE GreenLake For Block Storage provides a cloud-like experience but on-prem for managing our global block storage environment. It is an online solution. It is almost the same as what we did with the local GUI that we had for the former storage. The 100% data availability guarantee provided by GreenLake For Block Storage is the most important. We are running hospital data loads in our data center. The data must always be there. HPE GreenLake For Block Storage enables us to meet any recovery-point objective (RPO) and recovery‑time objective (RTO) strategy. We are using the local snapshots together with our Veeam solution. HPE GreenLake For Block Storage has helped reduce our operational expenses, but I do not have the metrics.

Moving to a consumption model is highly desirable from the client side. everyone seems to be moving in that direction. It provides a cloud-like experience on-prem. It simplified it for the most part. When you look at a lot of the storage and historically how it's been done, you're doing a lot of forecasting, a lot of business justification, a lot of purchasing of hardware, and oversizing for growth, et cetera. The pay-as-you-go model is a much more simplified way of doing things. And it offers more flexibility. The scale capacity improves and simplifies the experience in terms of growth and performance. A lot of clients I work with have performance requirements. I work heavily in financial and healthcare segments and those need 24/7/365 performance with no downtime. GreenLake helped to reduce our operational expenses.

I am a long-time HPE storage user and what I like the most is that they picked the best of both worlds and merged them together in one platform. I can start small. I can scale up. I can scale out. I can scale the capacity independently of the performance. The most important feature is that it's easy to manage. It has integrations with my application and with my software stack. It's so easy. We have the full life cycle management doing updates, and it's just a button, so it makes life easier. The ease of management has the biggest impact. That directly impacts my daily life. With easier management with one console, the application team can use the same tool. It's much more efficient. The communication, the enablement, it goes much faster, and we are much more efficient. The evolution over the last year has been good. They are doing a great job and have a good roadmap. We've saved a lot of time. However, how much time saved would depend on the number of actions or how you are measuring. It improved your storage performance in iOS due to the technology that they're using and the NVMe Storage. Today I get a better deduplication level compared to the previous generations. That means the price per gigabyte or terabyte is lower for me.
