HPE vSAN Ready Node Solutions
VMware vSAN™ is a software-defined storage product that pools direct-attached storage devices across a VMware vSphere server
virtualization cluster to
create a distributed, shared data store.
Hewlett Packard Enterprise supports, certifies, and offers VMware vSAN Ready Node™ configurations based on HPE ProLiant servers.
These easy
-to-order configurable bundles are built on HPE ProLiant DL325, DL360 and DL
380 Gen10 servers and are certified
under the HPE vSAN Ready Node specification.
Each configurable bundle is optimized for either virtualization, data management and processing, accelerated infrastructure, or data
warehousing to provide ideal performance
based on the customer’s workload.
VMware software from Hewlett Packard Enterprise includes either one, three, or five years of unlimited, 24x7 installation, configuration,
and troubleshooting support.
A complete list of supported and certified ProLiant servers is available either in the Hewlett Packard Enterprise support matrix

Or
in the VMware hardware compatibility list (HCL) at http://www.vmware.com/resources/compatibility/search.php.
