HPE is said to have launched a top-of-the-line storage product to ensure 100% availability. Primera is a storage device designed for artificial intelligence and built for mission-critical workloads.

"this is the most important storage release for HPE in the past few years," Henry Baltaza, vice president of infrastructure research at research firm 451, told IT professionals. "the competition in the storage market is still fierce, so such an announcement will attract people's attention, especially when HPE tries to replace existing suppliers to win new customers."
