 [Optional slide for audiences who want to cover additional product details]
HPE SimpliVity infrastructure’s core technology is the HPE SimpliVity Data Virtualization Platform, a globally aware file system and object store that facilitates a globally shared resource pools across multiple sites. The Data Virtualization Platform is characterized by the advanced data services it delivers:
Guaranteed Data Efficiency
Our solution deduplicates, compresses and optimizes ALL data inline at inception, in real-time, once and forever across all tiers of data.
The real power comes from the HPE OmniStack Accelerator Card, a PCIe card that offloads the heavy infrastructure operations, enabling the Intel x86 resources to do what they do best: running VMs. And we do it all a 0% performance impact to production VMs. In fact, we increase performance because we eliminate unnecessary IOPs. That’s revolutionary and differentiated – no one else can do it. And it’s all possible because of the Accelerator Card. HPE SimpliVity customers experience, on average, 40:1 data efficiency with many seeing over 100:1 data efficiency. And we guarantee 10:1 data efficiency as part of our standard warranty.
Built-in Resiliency, Backup, and Disaster Recovery
Only HPE SimpliVity hyperconverged systems deliver the resilience, built-in backup, and bandwidth-efficient replication needed to ensure the highest levels of data integrity and availability, eliminating the need for legacy data protection.
All data protection is built-in, all at the VM level. Your team can easily backup, restore and move VMs, and they don’t have to worry about the underlying storage infrastructure. They can just right click in vCenter – or use orchestration tools like VMware vRealize Automation or UCS Director – and hit “backup” or “restore” or “move.” And we guarantee that you will be able to restore a local 1 TB VM in one minute or less. On top of that, a recent study from IDC found that 70% of our customers reported improvement in backup/recovery and DR and a majority eliminated the use of existing third-party backup or replication tools after deploying HPE SimpliVity hyperconverged infrastructure.
Global VM-Centric Management and Mobility
Given our approach to data efficiency, the Data Virtualization Platform makes Virtual Machines lightweight and mobile. So it is extremely easy to move and/or clone VMs between sites to support global “follow the sun” development efforts or to move VMs to the appropriate location based on the requirements of the application.
Our approach to management is also unique. With Global VM-centric management, gone are the days of managing LUNs and shares and volumes. Instead, all management is done at the VM level with a single view across all of data centers and remote sites. Our unique file system abstracts the VMs, policies and management from the underlying hardware. Managing the system is designed to be simple and easy, which is why IDC found that our customers reported an 81% increase in time spent supporting new projects.

40:1
Guaranteed Data Efficiency: all data, at inception, is globally deduplicated- so before that block is written to disc (locally or remotely), the DVP will talk to the other site and only send changed blocks to disc. What does that mean? If you’re doing a backup in a virtual environment, you’re only backing up the parts that are changed.
All of that is done without a data burn on the processor. Organizations sometimes don’t turn on Dedup because of a performance hit- HPE OmniStack Accelerator Card allows us to offload these data processing intensive tasks to the accelerator card, so there are no performance hits.
What does that mean? Not only 40:1 data efficiency: 50% of SVT customers see improvement in performance of their applications.
The HPE SimpliVity Data Virtualization Platform provides three key benefits to end-users:
Guaranteed Data Efficiency - Only HPE SimpliVity infrastructure deduplicates, compresses, and optimizes all data at inception globally, eliminating unnecessary data processing, improving application performance, while guaranteeing 90% capacity savings across storage and backup.

Key Points:
The key point for this slide and the next two is to demonstrate how our deduplicate and compression actually works and to highlight not only the capacity savings but also that we increase performance by eliminating IOPS
“the best I/O is the one you don’t have to do”
Script:
Let’s take a deeper look at the DVP.
Click x2
First, if we take off the bezel and open it up, you’ll see it’s a standard x86 server with standard components like HDD, SSD, DRAM and x86 CPU and memory. And just like any other host, we’re running ESXi
Click
Then, we bring in the DVP, which sits architecturally between the hardware and the hypervisor, abstracting the hardware from the VMs / apps that are running on top.
Within that layer sits the Accelerator Card, the PCIe card that deduplicates, compresses and optimizes all data inline at inception once and forever, like we’ve already discussed.
When we peel back the onion a bit, you’ll see that the DVP actually has two layers: 1. the presentation layer, which is what VMware will logically interact with; and 2. the management layer, where the metadata is stored and managed
Let’s take a look at the write path. The first thing that happens is a new write will come in.
VMware will write it and
we’ll register the metadata. What actually happens first is that it will really write it to the card. Then the card will synchronously mirror to another card in another node for High Availability. When both cards have the data, they’ll persist it and acknowledge back to the host. Each card has 8GB of cache and NVRAM and supercapacitors. In case the power fails, the card will flush to NVRAM to protect the data.
Then, we’ll analyze the data. If it’s unique, as this block is at 8KB, then we’ll write it to HDD in compressed form.
Another write comes in.
It’s unique, we’ll compress it and write it to disk.
Another write that’s green this time
Now, let’s see what happens when a duplicate block – which is most blocks – comes in. We know that the fastest I/O is the one you never have to write, and therefore by eliminating I/O, you’ll increase performance. So let’s see what that looks like.
When that duplicate block comes in, VMware think it wrote unique data. However, the DVP recognizes that that block already exists somewhere within the shared resource pool. It updates the metadata and that’s it. No data was written! No new I/O.
And another duplicate block comes in.
And the same, no new data written.

Script: SimpliVity makes it easy to scale.
Scale-out is critical to IT organizations being able to correctly size IT infrastructure. Trying to predict what the infrastructure will look like in 3 years and purchase storage based on that prediction just doesn’t work. SimpliVity allows the environment to be right-sized. Buy the capacity that is needed for the next 6 months and add another OmniCube when you need to expand.
CLICK
We call a collection of 2 more mode OmniCubes a Federation. This slide shows a single 10GbE switch, but we obviously support full redundancy. We also support direct connect 10GbE for configurations up to 3 nodes.
Adding a node to the federation is as simple as plugging it into the network, selecting it in the GUI, and clicking the join button.
The SimpliVity shared resource pool automatically extends to include the new node. The key to scale-out is not adding an island, but instead adding resources that are shared with the rest of the federation. SimpliVity not only shares the capacity, but the performance capabilities of the new node are available to all of the local nodes.
As an example, we could also add a cheap and deep archive node. Again, the resources become available to every node in the local datacenter.
In traditional storage arrays, there is the inevitable data migration event. VMware has simplified the process of migrating the virtual machines by using VMotion. Unfortunately, it is not practical to use Storage VMotion to migrate terabytes of VMs. SimpliVity provides a simple evacuate function. Evacuate the data from a node and it will be rebalanced to the other nodes in the local datacenter without ever violating an SLA or requiring the reconfiguration of any policy.
We believe it is critical to integrate with existing infrastructure. We allow the legacy servers to connect to the federation and leverage our storage services.
The cloud is also a full member of the federation

Full logical backups, not snaps
Script:
Now, let’s expand this a bit to talk about how the DVP – and the efficiency it provides inherently – can truly improve operational efficiencies around what we call global unified management and native data protection.
For starters, let’s say you have a data center in San Francisco with three OmniCubes.
Click
And let’s say you have another in New York with two. This is what we would call a 3+2 configuration.
The first thing to notice is that these data centers are data centers. They are not LUN IDs or volumes or some other abstract, archaic notion. Instead, they are physical places that act as such, a shared resource pool to manage VMs for your data centers in San Fran and New York.
We connect the two data centers with the DVP. This creates a “SimpliVity federation” or a global network of resources to manage your VMs, all from the same single pane of glass, whether it’s vCenter or VMware vRA, or Cisco UCS Director.
Within this global federation, you can start to do some really interesting things. Let’s see what happens when, for example, you want to take a local backup. In the legacy world, you’d probably have a mix of array- based snapshots combined with backup software like Symantec or CommVault or Veeam combined with a backup to disk deduplication appliance.
With SimpliVity, you just right-click in vCenter and press “backup.” At that point, you get a full logical backup at the speed of a snap. How? Because we don’t have to write any new data! By definition, with a local backup, the data already exists. All that needs to happen is a metadata update for any changed blocks since the last full backup, which we can do at 10 minute RPOs. We can typically backup a local VM in SECONDS, let me show you in the demo in a moment.
Perhaps even more interesting, what if you wanted to take a remote backup?
Well, you wouldn’t want to send all of that data over the WAN as it would take forever. So instead, with the power of the DVP, you can just right-click in vCenter and press “remote backup.” At that point, instead of sending the data, we’ll just send the metadata “map.”
The remote data center – in this case, New York – will look at its shared resource pool to see what data at granular 8KB it already has, and what data it’s missing. Then, it’s smart enough to only request the data it’s missing.
And San Francisco only sends across the unique data needed to complete the full logical backup on the remote side. A simple metaphor might be a deck of cards. If you have 52 cards in San Francisco and your buddy is missing 3 cards in New York, why send all 52? Instead, just send the 3 cards he’s missing. Another example would be a lego set. Each friend has a bucket of legos and both want to build a firehouse. It’s likely that both kids already have most of the legos they need. So instead of one friend sending his entire bucket, just send the directions, have the friend take a look and compare what he needs to what he already has, and then only send over what you need.
Click x2
From there, you can restore your VM on the other side and be back up and running in minutes. A great use case for operational restore, for test/development around the sun, for disaster recovery. All natively built in by design with the SimpliVity DVP.
