HPE Primera Valuable Features
HPE Primera's good features include its quality, stability, scalability, and other features that are good for storage. The software is almost all software. Though HPE 3PAR StoreServ claims to use different software, I feel it is the same as HPE Primera. I think that owing to its software, HPE 3PAR StoreServ was sold for almost thirteen or fourteen years by my company. In general, HPE is a very great and stable product. I think that the tool provides stability, and they have service. I think HPE was the first company to use chunklets. HPE is a great solution because it works actively in the production stage for all the use cases where it is currently required. Now, almost every main storage vendor has tools, like IBM EMC.

The distinction between Primera and Freeport becomes more apparent for us when we implement rollbacks, particularly on-site. In such situations, we've observed that the transition from one side to the other is significantly faster and simpler, whether it's done automatically or manually.

The product has better replication features than the previous products. It is easy for me to migrate VM from one Primera to another. Earlier, we had a lot of challenges. Now we can just do block load storage migration. This process is better. In the past, when we were using traditional hard disks, we always had latency issues, and people would complain about it. It doesn’t happen anymore. Disk failure has been reduced. We do not have any issues since we moved to the flash disk. The product is easy to configure and easy to manage.

The most valuable features of the solution depend on the users' infrastructures. If the people use only the SAN environment and there are no replication, TR-069, or NAS requirements, then HPE will try to fit in for such requirements.
The features I like in HPE Primera are similar to the ones offered by NetApp. I prefer to use the features I like and want in NetApp and not in HPE 3PAR or Primera. If people use only the SAN environment in their company, they can go with the NetApp HPE 3PAR or Primera.
The most valuable feature of HP Primera is that you don't have to buy an additional product for application replication. This tool offers a feature for replication from the area, allowing you to configure the application with two data centers directly from the software.
Unlike Dell, where you would need to buy a separate RPA for the replication from IT tools ID, with HP Primera, there's no need to invest in new hardware for this purpose.

My company takes care of the installation phase of the product for our customers, and we also manage the systems for our customers. With HPE Primera, I can say that it is great to have a tool that provides or serves as a single point of visibility for everything.

The most important thing for us is the IOPS. It's produced because a full flash system is a requirement for us. Last year we used a three-part hybrid solution in our environment and needed some IOPS on our site. HPE Primera met this requirement for us entirely.
It seems sufficient for our environment, but if our requirement increases in two years, then we can plan. So there's no need to make any improvements right now.
