New channel program enables partners to accelerate time to revenue with HP Storage solutions
HP today announced new and enhanced HP ProLiant servers and HP Storage offerings that help small and midsized businesses (SMBs) accelerate business results by simplifying the deployment, management and maintenance of their IT infrastructure.
SMBs can be challenged by limited financial and human resources when responding to growing customer demands and evolving business needs. Smaller enterprises need simple, scalable and cost-effective solutions to power their businesses.
“Small and midsized businesses are faced with daily challenges that include controlling costs, managing employee productivity and supporting growth with limited resources,” said Dhanawat Suthumpun, managing director, Hewlett-Packard (Thailand) Ltd. “These new HP ProLiant servers and HP Storage offerings provide SMBs with cost-effective, easy-to use IT capabilities to boost business performance.”
Simplicity in a high-performance compact boxThe new HP ProLiant MicroServer Generation 8 (Gen8) is an ideal first server that provides simplified setup, management and maintenance with innovative HP Smart Technologies.
Designed for organizations with less than 10 employees, the HP MicroServer Gen8 shares and secures critical information in a central server. Data and applications housed on the server are remotely accessible from virtually any web-connected device with Microsoft Windows Server 2012 Essentials, improving productivity and collaboration.
The HP MicroServer Gen8 also provides HP channel partners the opportunity to deliver new SMB services and partner revenue opportunities with HP Insight Online — the industry’s first comprehensive cloud-based services portal.
Greater computing opportunities The expanded HP ProLiant lineup is ideal for SMB clients, SMB channel partners and organizations in emerging markets. These servers improve performance, power management and serviceability:
HP ProLiant ML10 is an entry level server designed to meet the needs of SMBs in fast-growing emerging markets. It is an entry-level single-socket four-rack mountable unit (4U) server that delivers optimal computing with built-in management capabilities.
HP ProLiant ML310e Gen8 v2 is an updated, full-featured, single-processor tower server with enterprise-class manageability for SMBs with remote or branch offices that need to boost productivity and connectivity and simplify management with maximum uptime.
HP ProLiant DL320e Gen8 v2 is a new compact, single-processor, rack-optimized server that can be deployed anywhere. It is ideal for single-application uses, such as small businesses and chain stores, and is ideal for factory automation, medical, transportation, telecom and military. The server meets the unique space, mobility, management and budget challenges that SMB and embedded market customers must solve.
Maximized SMB investments with high-performance entry-level Fibre Channel ArrayLimited IT resources and a lack of storage expertise can make it difficult for SMBs to deploy the storage systems needed to support applications that require high availability and performance.

Integrating seamlessly with Microsoft Windows infrastructure, the enhanced HP StoreEasy Storage portfolio enables customers to store, manage and protect unstructured data for thousands of concurrent users. The new enhancements enable SMBs to reduce administrative time, lower costs and enhance productivity.
