HP ProLiant

Overview
How are you going to scale out to petabytes with your current infrastructure?
Big data, largely unstructured such as messages, images, readings from sensors, and GPS signals from cell phones, are growing at an exponential rate. The HP ProLiant SL4540 Gen8 Server solves the traditional structured database problems when dealing with big data. Implementing a scale-out infrastructure will invariably result in challenges of data center capacity, spiraling energy costs, infrastructure complexity and inefficiencies because today’s siloed infrastructure is not optimized for scale-out server workloads driven by big data. The SL4540 Gen8 Server is a server purpose–built for big data. A highly efficient converged design that delivers the right combination of capacity and performance, in the least amount of space and at lower cost, with the reliability and manageability you expect from HP ProLiant Gen8, the world’s most intelligent servers.
Features
Designed To Support a Range of Storage Capacity per Node with Scalable Performance and Throughput
• With the HP ProLiant SL4540 Gen8 Server you have a choice of three flexible compute nodes (featuring the Intel® Xeon® E5-2400 product family) contained in a 4.3U form factor chassis that allows for shared cooling, power and management, as opposed to siloed architectures using individual chassis.
Scale in Capacity and Performance at Lower Cost
• The 4.3U form factor chassis of the SL4540 Gen8 is capable of storing up to 240TB. With nine chassis in a 42U rack, it can achieve unprecedented server storage capacities of up to 2.16PB.
Scale Confidently with Built-In Intelligence and Automation of the HP ProLiant Gen8 Servers
• HP Smart Array technology innovations include Predictive Rebuild to reduce downtime exposure, improved data retention with Flash Backed Write Cache (FBWC) and increased data protection with advanced data mirroring.
