HPE Delivers High-Speed Backup Storage Platform

HPE introduced the Alletra Storage MP X10000 in November 2024 and added the Data Protection Accelerator Node (DPAN) in August 2025, creating a disaggregated all-flash, scale-out backup platform managed via GreenLake. Testing showed a single DPAN sustained 83.83 GB/s (~300 TB/hour) and a four-node configuration can reach about 1.2 PB/hour, with up to 60:1 data reduction using StoreOnce Catalyst.
Key Points
- 1Delivers all-flash disaggregated X10000 with DPAN sustaining ~300 TB/hour per node
- 2Eliminates target-side bottlenecks, exposing backup-software, network, and client-write limits at scale
- 3Enables shorter backup windows, faster restores, and predictable linear scaling to petabyte-per-hour throughput
Scoring Rationale
High practical throughput and validated vendor testing, with limitation of vendor-led benchmarks and narrow focus on backup infrastructure.
