Which HP storage technology uses Non-Volatile Memory Express (NVMe) over Fabrics to extend NVMe's low-latency benefits across a storage network?

Accepted Answer

HP Primera with NVMe-oF

Answer

HP Primera supports NVMe-oF, enabling sub-millisecond latency across shared storage fabrics rather than just direct-attached NVMe.

Question 2

In HP StoreOnce, what does the term 'Catalyst' refer to?

Accepted Answer

A backup protocol that performs deduplication at the source before data is sent

Answer

HP StoreOnce Catalyst is a backup protocol that moves deduplication processing to the backup client, reducing network bandwidth usage.

Question 3

Accepted Answer

HP StoreOnce with Cloud Bank Storage

Answer

HP StoreOnce Cloud Bank Storage enables seamless replication of deduplicated backup data to AWS S3 without re-hydrating it.

Question 4

What is the primary advantage of HP Nimble Storage's Adaptive Flash technology compared to a pure all-flash array for mixed workloads?

Accepted Answer

Lower cost per GB by tiering cold data to high-capacity HDDs while keeping hot data on flash

Answer

Nimble Adaptive Flash uses a hybrid architecture where HDDs store cold data cheaply and flash handles hot random I/O, reducing cost while maintaining performance.

Question 5

Which HP Primera feature automatically moves data between storage tiers without administrator intervention?

Accepted Answer

Autonomous Data Tiering (ADT)

Answer

HP Primera's Autonomous Data Tiering (ADT) uses AI-driven analytics to automatically promote or demote data blocks between NVMe and SAS tiers.
