A true small office solution

For SMBs, establishing a reliable and efficient IT infrastructure is critical, yet many need help knowing where to start. HPE ProLiant Gen11 servers simplify this process by providing a comprehensive small office deployment solution.

By streamlining installation processes and offering user-friendly management interfaces, these servers allow SMBs to set up their IT environment swiftly with minimal technical expertise. This enables SMBs to focus on their core operations, accelerating time-to-market and enhancing overall productivity.

Data protection throughout

Data is the lifeblood of SMBs, making its protection a top priority. HPE ProLiant Gen11 servers offer robust backup and recovery solutions tailored to the specific needs of SMBs.

With built-in features like automated backup schedules, data encryption, and disaster recovery capabilities, these servers ensure the integrity and availability of critical business data.

By safeguarding against data loss and downtime, SMBs can mitigate risks, maintain compliance, and preserve their reputation, instilling confidence among customers and stakeholders.

Work from anywhere, anytime

In an increasingly remote-centric work environment, enabling seamless connectivity and collaboration is essential for SMBs. HPE ProLiant Gen11 servers facilitate this transition as a robust virtualisation solution.

Through virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) and remote access technologies, these servers empower SMBs to enable work-from-anywhere productivity, allowing employees to access corporate resources from any location or device securely.

This enhances workforce flexibility and satisfaction and drives operational efficiency and business continuity.

Flexibility for success

Reliability and flexibility are critical to any SMB’s success, and HPE ProLiant Gen11 servers deliver on both fronts.

With enterprise-grade hardware and software components, these servers offer unmatched reliability, ensuring uninterrupted operations even under demanding workloads. Moreover, their scalable architecture and modular design provide the flexibility needed to adapt to evolving business requirements.

Whether it's scaling up to accommodate growth or integrating new technologies, SMBs can rely on HPE ProLiant Gen11 servers to provide the agility and scalability necessary for sustained success.

Addressing resource challenges

Perhaps the greatest challenge for SMBs is accomplishing their ambitious business goals with limited resources. This challenge often extends to their IT infrastructure, where they must find ways to maximise performance and efficiency while working within tight budgets.

Here's how HPE ProLiant Gen11 servers address this challenge:

Lowering SMBs’ carbon footprints

• Traditional servers often consume substantial amounts of power, leading to high energy costs and environmental impact.
• HPE ProLiant Gen11 servers integrate advanced power management technologies that optimise energy usage without compromising performance.
• Through features like power capping, dynamic power regulation, and low-power components, these servers significantly reduce energy consumption, helping SMBs lower their operational expenses and minimise their carbon footprint.

Intelligent resource allocation, optimisation

• Inefficient resource allocation can result in underutilised hardware and wasted investments.
• HPE ProLiant Gen11 servers employ intelligent resource allocation mechanisms that dynamically allocate computing, storage, and networking resources based on workload demands.
• Through techniques such as virtualisation, containerisation, and software-defined infrastructure, these servers ensure optimal resource utilisation, maximising performance while minimising idle capacity.
• Through techniques such as automated provisioning, dynamic scaling, and predictive analytics, these servers ensure that resources are allocated efficiently in real-time, avoiding over-provisioning and underutilisation.
• This optimisation of resource utilisation allows SMBs to extract maximum value from their IT assets, driving down costs and enhancing competitiveness.

Managing diverse workloads

• SMBs often run diverse workloads with varying performance requirements, from basic file serving to complex data analytics.
• HPE ProLiant Gen11 servers offer workload optimisation capabilities that tailor hardware configurations and software settings to specific workload characteristics.
• Whether it's through automated workload balancing, application-specific optimisations, or adaptive performance tuning, these servers ensure that each workload receives the right level of resources and performance, optimising overall system efficiency and responsiveness.

Maximising performance, minimising costs

By leveraging advanced technologies such as efficient power management, intelligent resource allocation, and workload optimisation, these servers enable SMBs to maximise performance while minimising operational costs.

Whether it's reducing energy consumption, consolidating workloads, or optimising resource utilisation, HPE ProLiant Gen11 servers empower SMBs to achieve greater efficiency and competitiveness without breaking the bank.
