BB926A Use Case
Accelerated Enterprise Data Center Backup
A global financial institution deploys the BB926A-HPE StoreOnce 10GbE Network Card in its primary data center to accelerate nightly full-server backups of 5PB of patient and transaction records. By leveraging HPE StoreOnce Catalyst over 10GbE, the organization achieves up to 50% faster backup windows and 20:1 deduplication, ensuring RPOs under 30 minutes and full GDPR compliance. The outcome: uninterrupted operations, reduced backup infrastructure costs, and hardened disaster readiness.
High-Speed Hybrid Cloud Tiering
A healthcare research firm integrates the BB926A-HPE StoreOnce 10GbE Network Card with its on-prem HPE StoreOnce appliance and Azure Blob Storage via Catalyst Cloud Tier. Large imaging data sets are securely deduplicated and tiered to the cloud at 10GbE line rate, reducing on-site capacity by 65% and storage costs by 40%. This solution delivers seamless scalability, predictable performance SLAs, and automated policy-driven data placement for critical research workloads.
Secure Multi-Site Disaster Recovery Replication
A retail chain implements the BB926A-HPE StoreOnce 10GbE Network Card across two geographically dispersed stores to replicate daily transaction logs and inventory snapshots. Leveraging encrypted, bandwidth-efficient StoreOnce Catalyst replication at 10GbE speeds, the retailer maintains sub-hour RPOs and sub-4-hour RTOs with less than 1% network overhead. The result: robust business continuity, risk-free failover testing, and minimal impact on production traffic.
