Data sheet
With trends like Big Data, mobility, IoT, and
cloud-native technologies fueling the digital
economy, more organizations are shifting
from traditional to digital enterprises. They’re
putting applications and data at the center of
innovation, which, in part, is causing the data
landscape to change rapidly. At this pace, the
size of the digital universe will double every
two years at least, which is a 50-fold growth
from 2010 to 2020.

Storage technology that was adequate
in the recent past is now becoming an IT
stranglehold. In response, IT is looking to
deploy new technologies that can handle
the scale, speed, and variety of data to drive
faster, more intelligent business insight.
Security, too, is a high priority, as data
breaches continue to rise. To help address
these issues, organizations are turning to
HPE to boost the performance, scalability, and
resiliency of their server-attached storage.
