Use Cases in Indian Enterprises

VMware vSphere Virtualization
DL380 Gen11 is the most commonly deployed VMware host in Indian data centres. HPE iLO 6 integrates with VMware vCenter for hardware monitoring and lifecycle management. Supports vSAN for hyper-converged deployments.
Oracle and SQL Server
2-socket configuration meets Oracle SE2 licensing requirements (socket-based licensing). HPE Persistent Memory can accelerate in-memory database operations. Storage options include NVMe for high-IOPS workloads.
Citrix / VMware VDI
Dense memory configuration (512GB–2TB DDR5) supports high session density. NVMe-only storage eliminates disk I/O as VDI bottleneck. iLO 6 provides out-of-band management for large VDI farms.
Backup Target Server
DL380 Gen11 with LFF bays supports dense capacity configurations for Veeam, Commvault, or Veritas backup targets. Up to 12x 18TB SATA LFF = 216TB raw per server.
