A HPE Simplivity Case Study
NovAtel, a medium‑sized telecommunications equipment company in Canada, faced aging infrastructure that needed full replacement and the complexity of managing multiple vendors and solutions. The legacy environment also relied on inadequate backup tools, prompting a refresh to simplify operations and improve reliability.
NovAtel deployed HPE SimpliVity OmniCube to modernize infrastructure for ROBO, production and test/dev workloads (running Microsoft SQL Server, SharePoint and industry apps). The solution delivered 25–50% better performance, reduced new workload deployment from weeks/months to as little as one day, and delivered measurable value within 1–3 months; integrated data protection, inline dedupe/compression, the hyperconverged appliance and global federated management were rated extremely valuable, with VM‑centric vCenter management highly valuable.
