What is HPE GreenLake?

Flexible Capacity from HPE Pointnext offers on-demand capacity, combining the agility and economics of public cloud with the security and performance of on-premises IT. With advanced metering, customers pay monthly for actual capacity used, above a minimum commitment – by core, by terabyte, by virtual machine – with no up-front capital outlay. HPE provides a buffer of capacity on-premises and ready for use, which you pay for only when you start to use. Active capacity management ensures that the buffer is replenished before it runs out, so that you have the servers, storage, networking, and operating software that you need, and ensuring that you are ready to take on your next project or next customer. Flexible Capacity cuts overprovisioning – commonly as much as 50-60% of servers and storage – saving on IT cost, enabling faster time to value and eliminating the typical long purchasing cycle. And it includes support for your IT environment to simplify how you operate IT.

We use Dell products as well, and it is preferred over HP for its professionalism and ease of administration. While HP is straightforward to use, there were instances where unknown configurations required support from HP, and the experience wasn't satisfactory. Dell's support is considered better overall. While there may be differences in latency between HPE and Dell, it does not significantly impact performance or decision-making.

If you pick any Epic upgrade, the faster that it can be done than the sooner you can turnaround the environment to your end users. This means less downtime and paperwork with better service to our customers, who happen to be patients. When planning to build the service with the HPE GreenLake team, we knew what our minimum requirements were. We laid that out, then there will always be a statistical anomaly where you're going to be above or below. So, the fact that we can put in what we need and have added capacity that we are not paying for eliminates any overprovisioning. Our IT team is more productive. There is more engineering work, because it takes a lot of the planning out of the picture since it has already been done. It allows the engineers to do their job rather than the added stuff that is above and beyond. It has made the security and compliance of our IT operations better. We are able to stay up to date with everything. In our organization, we don't want to see emails from compliance saying that we are behind on a report which came out, that we need XYZ firmware update, or a Windows update. When you have that added capacity, you can upgrade as you go with with very little downtime, if any.

HPE GreenLake is an excellent product because customers have multiple benefits using it as you only need to pay-as-you-grow model, so users don't have to keep a particular size of the solution or maintain a huge buffer and all, especially when they opt to use it as an on-premises solution in their infrastructure where they may need to take care of the expansion in the future. HPE GreenLake takes care of the buffer space and resources required to some extent as it operates on a pay-as-you-grow model, where users can increase their resources as their business expands. I rate the tool a nine out of ten.

Key learnings from peers

Valuable Features

"The most valuable feature for me is the ability to perform backups with a graphical user interface (GUI). It makes the process easy."
"It offers businesses the flexibility and scalability of the public cloud while having their infrastructure on-premises."

Room for Improvement

"Unfortunately, HPE GreenLake can be sold only in Bahrain, UAE, and the Middle East, meaning it can be sold in only three or four countries because it requires certain approvals from countries where it has to be used."
"The support service needs improvement. The support team isn't very active in addressing cases. It should also provide a web application."
"There is a need for improved support in HPE GreenLake, including more administrators and engineers to provide faster resolution for issues."

Pricing

"In terms of pricing, it's a bit on the higher side."
"The price could be more flexible."
