In March 2017, Hewlett Packard Enterprise announced its acquisition of Nimble Storage, a leading provider of entry to midrange, predictive flash storage solutions. This acquisition rounds out a storage portfolio that already leads the market in midrange to high-end storage with HPE 3PAR StoreServ enterprise flash storage solutions. If the HPE 3PAR StoreServ portfolio doesn’t fit your needs perfectly, you may find a better answer to your unique challenges with Nimble Storage.
But you might be wondering about the exact distinctions between HPE 3PAR StoreServ and Nimble Storage solutions. As you start to evaluate storage solutions that can provide massive consolidation to make your business more agile, this quick overview of Nimble should provide some guidance.
