Why every
CloudPhysics
assesment has a Golden Lining
HPE CloudPhysics is a free hybrid cloud assessment service that reveals where the biggest savings, performance improvements, and modernization opportunities can be found.
Give yourself a unique edge when advising your clients, especially those with a lot of VM workloads or older SimpliVity. Across servers, storage, and virtualization.
1. Server Assessment
What CloudPhysics Captures
- Server model & generation (Gen9/Gen10/Gen11 etc.)
- CPU configuration & utilization
- Memory usage
- IO metrics
- Power consumption
- Storage configuration
What You Learn
- Which servers are oversized, undersized, or outdated
- Energy and cost inefficiencies
- Performance bottlenecks impacting VM/Simplivity workloads
- When servers fall off ESXi compatibility
What-If Scenario Example
“Move 30% of your legacy Gen9/Gen10 compute to HPE ProLiant Gen12 and reduce power consumption by up to 65%, while improving workload performance.”
Perfect for:
➔ SimpliVity node refresh
➔ Hybrid cloud planning
➔ Cost and performance justifications
2. Storage Assessment
What CloudPhysics Captures
- Shared and local storage inventory
- Underlying hardware
- Capacity usage
- Performance metrics (IOPS, latency, throughput)
What You Learn
- Which storage systems limit performance
- Where capacity pressure will occur
- Hot/cold data distribution
- Whether legacy arrays block modernization
What-If Scenario Example
“Avoiding unnecessary storage expansions, identifying underutilized arrays, identifying cold data candidates for cheaper tiers, etc.”
Perfect for:
➔ SimpliVity storage-heavy environments
➔ Clients running mixed arrays
➔ GreenLake pay‑per‑use conversations
3. Virtualization Assessment
What CloudPhysics Captures
- Shared and local storage inventory
- Underlying hardware
- Capacity usage
- Performance metrics (IOPS, latency, throughput)
What You Learn
- Which storage systems limit performance
- Where capacity pressure will occur
- Hot/cold data distribution
- Whether legacy arrays block modernization
What-If Scenario Example
“Reduce VM licensing cost by migrating specific workloads to HPE VM Essentials or identify oversized and undersized VMs.”
Perfect for:
➔ VM licensing concerns
➔ Pre‑refresh SimpliVity analysis
➔ Consolidation or migration planning
HPE CloudPhysics Delivers Answers in Hours, not Weeks
You receive a complete inventory, performance analytics, risk insights, and cost‑saving recommendations
All automatically collected and visualized.
With these insights, you can confidently guide clients toward:
- SimpliVity node refresh
- HPE Morpheus VM Essentials migration
- Server upgrades (ProLiant Gen9/10/11 → Gen12)
- Storage modernization (legacy arrays → Alletra MP)
- Hybrid cloud or GreenLake adoption
- Energy efficiency optimizations
- TD SYNNEX Capital & HPEFS financing models
Where This Helps You Close More SimpliVity Business
For SimpliVity customers CloudPhysics uncovers:
- Outdated nodes blocking performance
- VM compatibility gaps
- Capacity or IO limitations
- Real workload behavior (not assumptions!)
- Best-fit modernization options
This is exactly how you turn data insights into ROI-powered conversion.
