Overview

• Accelerate mission-critical apps with up to 2X performance boost1. New 2, 3, and 4 controller node switched models
(with a choice of 16-core or 32-core configurations) – adding to the existing option of 2 core controller node switchless
models – enables a leap in performance of up to 2X.
• Scale without limitation with 2X more capacity2. Support for up to 16 JBOF expansion shelves enables you to start small
and scale big– from 15.36TB to around 5.8 PB3 - without disruption.
• Maximize efficiency and cost savings with granular capacity upgrades: Support for 8 to 24 SSDs per enclosure — with
the ability to upgrade drives in 2-drive increments and JBOFs in increments of 1 — gives you the flexibility to fine-tune,
adapt, and elastically scale storage environments in line with specific workload capacity requirements and evolving
business needs.
• Unlock the full power of NVMe for Ethernet networks with NVMe/TCP: With new NVMe over TCP host protocol
support, you get all the benefits of a low latency, high performance NVMe fabric without committing to a dedicated storage
network like Fibre Channel. You now have the flexibility to choose the front-end storage protocol that best fits your
workloads and existing network infrastructure thanks to support for Fibre Channel, NVMe-oF/FC, NVMe-oF/TCP and iSCSi.
• Simplify management with enhanced and extended AI-driven performance reporting: HPE Alletra Storage MP
B10000 is powered by industry leading AIOps for infrastructure, delivered via the Data Services Cloud Console (DSCC) on
the HPE GreenLake cloud platform. The latest release of the Data Ops Manager app on DSCC continues to eliminate the
guesswork for customers when it comes to storage optimization through enhanced and extended AI-based performance
reporting and analytics for improved troubleshooting and insights. Key reporting enhancements include headroom
utilization trend analysis by volume set, top volume set hotspots by latency, improved workload drift detection, and
resource contention detection. With the latest release of the Data Ops Manager, customers also get improved capacity
reporting, capacity savings and efficiency metrics, and new sustainability metrics (including carbon utilization emissions
and energy consumption).
• Take the risk and complexity out of data migration: Remove the risk and complexity of switching to a new storage
platform with multiple options for quick, non-disruptive data migration.
− With HPE Peer Motion, you can move data from HPE 3PAR, HPE Primera, and HPE Alletra 9000 storage arrays
to HPE Alletra Storage MP B10000 — online, non-disruptively, and without complex planning or dependency on
extra tools.
− With HPE Zerto, you get a simple (4-click), scalable, and risk-free migration experience for large, complex
virtualized environments — regardless of hardware or storage platform.
− If you don’t have the required in-house IT staff availability, expertise, and tools to ensure a successful migration,
HPE Data Migration Services will get you up and running fast. This simplifies the data migration process and
provides a flexible way to migrate an organization’s critical data safely with minimal impact to operations. You
have a choice of several online and offline options for migrating their data to align with their organization’s
requirements, budgets, and timelines.

• Support for QLC SSDs: Provides lower cost per TB and greater storage density; ideal for heavy read workloads

• Support for 10GBase-T: Enables additional host connectivity for legacy infrastructure

• Numerous software feature improvements: Including greater system performance, security enhancements, and
expanded peer motion support
