Summary
The infrastructure combines compute, storage services, and networking in a single 2U appliance, and incorporates all of the traditional IT functions: WAN optimization, unified global VM-centric management, data protection, cloud integration, deduplication, built-in backup, caching, and scale-out capabilities.The infrastructure combines compute, storage services, and networking in a single 2U appliance, and incorporates all of the traditional IT functions: WAN optimization, unified global VM-centric management, data protection, cloud integration, deduplication, built-in backup, caching, and scale-out capabilities.Inline deduplication, compression and optimization are applied to all data at inception, reducing resource consumption (storage and CPU) while increasing application performance.HPE SimpliVity 380 is a turnkey hyperconverged solution built on an HPE ProLiant DL380 compute platform.Systems can be clustered to form a shared resource pool that delivers high availability, mobility, and efficient scaling of performance and capacity.Event Synopsis:Ransomware is a type of malicious software that can slow down or even immobilize a user’s computer access and then attempt to exact money to cure the problem.It can range from rogue security and tech support, to screen lockers that claim illegal activity has been detected, and most dangerously to malware that steals and encrypts the user’s files – literally holding them for ransom.One of the most prevalent forms of cyberattack today, ransomware is aimed not only at individuals but also at businesses and institutions.
