French Cloud Provider Iliane Selects HPE GreenLake

Hewlett Packard Enterprise Development LP announced that Iliane SAS, a French cloud services and hosting service provider, has selected its GreenLake edge-to-cloud platform to accelerate the deployment of their cloud offerings for regional accounts.

The GreenLake platform meets IIiane’s requirements for flexibility, security, manageability and fast delivery of resources and allows IIiane to administer their IT and cloud offerings with flexibility.

“We provide reliable, high performing and long-lasting solutions to our customers, so we need an innovative storage solution that will scale up with the increasing demand of the market today,” said Eddy Le Nenes, GM, Iliane. “The GreenLake platform provides budget predictability and control over our expenses without compromising on the scalability, flexibility, or level of support we require to meet our customers’ needs.” 

Iliane was eager to acquire technologies with high resiliency, efficiency, and flexibility to support customers’ workloads and applications that run their businesses. Its existing platforms were saturated and upgrading their existing complex infrastructure was essential in order to meet significant business demand and urgent delivery time requirements of their services. Iliane required a solution that reduces their time to market and increases efficiency to meet customer needs without increasing electricity costs or their carbon footprint.

The scalable and flexible GreenLake solution is delivered from 2 new datacenters in western France and delivers storage with proactive audits and capacity planning services. Furthermore, it addresses flexibility requirements by making capacity available on demand.

“HPE worked closely with Iliane to fully understand what was required of their IT and approached this not only as a technical refresh, but also as a solution to meet the future needs of their business long term,” said Paul d’Alena, channel director, HPE. “GreenLake is a game-changer for service providers like Iliane, who have increasing demands and a need for resiliency to offer a seamless cloud experience.” 

Beyond replacing the storage system in a pay-per-use model, HPE helped Iliane’s cloud division implement a cloud-native data infrastructure using the HPE Alletra 9000 to provide resilient storage, delivered in a cloud experience. HPE Synergy 480 Gen 10 addresses the increasing needs for compute capacities and the GreenLake dashboard and consumption analytics portal enable Iliane to manage their environment with a cloud-native approach.
