Busting Myths - A Deep Dive into HPE GreenLake
It used to be that if you wanted infrastructure, you would buy servers, bring them in, pay up front, overprovision yourself to death, and pay for them all regardless of what you were actually using.   Thankfully, those days are over.   While cloud-based servers work for a lot of folks, it’s no secret that all work loads are not created equal. Not everybody can migrate everything to the cloud. So what do you do if you need the best of both worlds?   On this episode of B2B Tech Talk, we talk with Brian Koch & Russell Fenton , both from IngramMicro, about HPE GreenLake, what it is, what it isn’t, and some of the biggest myths that exist around this outstanding service.   We talk about:  Why the old model of all on-premises solutions just doesn’t work anymore How to avoid over provisioning yourself Why GreenLake is more than just a lease How GreenLake can help not just enterprise businesses, but small to medium sized businesses as well   For more information, contact HPEGreenLake@Ingrammicro.com  To join the discussion, follow us on Twitter @IngramTechSol #B2BTechTalk  Listen to this episode and more like it by subscribing to B2B Tech Talk on Spotify , Apple Podcasts, or Stitcher .
