Full HCI Capabilities at the Edge
The HPE SimpliVity 2600 Gen10 brings the full OmniStack hyperconverged infrastructure platform to remote offices, branch offices, and edge locations — in a dense 2U form factor based on the HPE ProLiant DL360 Gen10 with Intel Xeon Scalable processors and up to 46TB raw SSD storage.

The SimpliVity 2600 is specifically designed for remote offices, branch offices, and edge data centres where on-site IT expertise is limited or unavailable. Centralised management from HPE InfoSight and vCenter at the primary site enables a single team to manage all distributed locations.
Branch offices with only two SimpliVity nodes can form a resilient 2-node cluster using the SimpliVity Virtual Controller (SVT Arbiter) software running on any VM at a third location (the HQ or cloud). This avoids the cost of a third hardware node at small remote sites.
OmniStack deduplication dramatically reduces backup replication bandwidth requirements. Because only unique deduplicated blocks are transmitted, WAN traffic for remote-site backup replication is a fraction of the raw data change rate — enabling reliable DR over existing broadband or MPLS links.
Configure with 6 to 12 SSDs (1.92TB or 3.84TB) per node for between 11.5TB and 46TB raw capacity. All-flash performance ensures edge applications receive consistent latency with no HDD performance variability affecting user experience.
Entire lifecycle — provisioning, backup policy, VM management, performance monitoring — is managed centrally. Remote reboot, firmware update, and VM recovery can all be initiated from HQ without requiring an on-site engineer or even a power-cycle at the branch.
SimpliVity backup encryption protects sensitive data at edge locations. AES-256 encryption applies to all data at rest and all backup replication in transit. If a remote node is compromised or physically stolen, the data remains encrypted and unreadable.
The HPE SimpliVity 2600 Gen10 is purpose-built for the challenge of running IT infrastructure at distributed edge locations — remote offices, branch offices, retail sites, manufacturing floors, and edge data centres where on-site technical expertise is limited and physical space is constrained. Based on the HPE ProLiant DL360 Gen10, the 2600 packs the full OmniStack hyperconverged platform into a 2U chassis that can be deployed in any standard rack or telecommunications cabinet.
The 2-node ROBO cluster capability is a key differentiator for distributed deployments. A third full SimpliVity node is not required at each branch: instead, the SimpliVity Virtual Controller Arbiter software runs on any existing VM — a central server at headquarters or even a cloud VM — providing the quorum function that allows the 2-node branch cluster to operate with full resilience. This reduces the hardware cost of equipping each remote site with SimpliVity by approximately one third.
OmniStack's inline deduplication provides a critical benefit at the WAN edge: deduplicated backup replication. When backup copies are replicated from branch to headquarters over a WAN link, only unique deduplicated blocks are transmitted — not raw data. Because remote sites typically run common OS images and application stacks, deduplication ratios at the edge are frequently higher than in the data centre, making WAN-efficient replication practical even on modest bandwidth connections.
Centralised management is fundamental to the SimpliVity 2600 value proposition. From a single HPE InfoSight console or VMware vCenter instance at headquarters, an IT team can provision and manage VMs, execute backup jobs, monitor performance, apply firmware updates, and recover VMs at all branch locations. No on-site IT staff is required at the edge, reducing operational costs for distributed organisations.
Deploy a 2-node SimpliVity 2600 cluster at each branch with a central Arbiter for full resilience. Centralised management from HQ eliminates on-site IT staff requirements while providing enterprise-grade HCI at every location.
Manufacturing, utilities, and logistics organisations deploy SimpliVity 2600 at operational sites to run localised applications, SCADA systems, and point-of-sale workloads with consistent performance and centralised backup.
Replicate remote-site VM backups to the central data centre over existing WAN links. OmniStack deduplication reduces replication bandwidth by 90%, making DR practical over standard broadband connections.
Replace 3-tier server + SAN + backup appliance at remote sites with a 2-node SimpliVity cluster. Fewer hardware SKUs, one vendor, one support contact, and zero on-site management overhead.
