Composable Infrastructure is the engine for the Idea Economy

Precisely compose any

compute with any storage

pool

− Quickly recompose across

racks and rows in seconds

− SDS, DAS and SAN in the

infrastructure

Program Infrastructure

the way you want

− Single line of code for full

infrastructure

programmability

− Stand up infrastructure in

minutes not months

Power up to a portal in

minutes

− Self-discovery, auto-

integration of all resources

− Bare metal through OS

provisioning in seconds

− Compose disaggregated

stateless resources

Frictionless operations

reduce operational effort

− Templates define how the

infrastructure needs to

Composable FabricRack scale multi-fabric

connectivity eliminates

standalone TOR switches

Composable ComputeProvides the performance,

scalability, density optimization,

storage simplicity, and

configuration flexibility

ComposerIntegrated software-defined

intelligence to self-discover,

auto-integrate, provision and

scale from racks to rows

Composable StorageHigh-density integrated storage

to compose any compute with

any storage (SDS, DAS, SAN)

Composable FrameEverything needed to run applications, so IT can be quickly setup and consumed

Auto-integrating makes scaling simple and automated at rack/row scale

HPE Synergy: Engine for the Idea Economy

Developer Portal: Presents a private bare metal cloud through unified API & SDK

Single Management Interface: One interface to discover, compose, update, and troubleshoot

Unique innovations enable the composable experiencePrivate bare metal cloud ready to run any application and delivered as

infrastructure as code

Image Streamer: Instantly provision operating environments on stateless infrastructure

Template Based Composition:Templates composes the infrastructure to match the workload’s needs

Frictionless Change: Firmware and driver updates delivered seamlessly as one

Unified API:Operations changes can be easily automated and Developers can program the infrastructure as code
