Moving applications to gives enterprises more agility and the ability to quickly deliver innovative services to their customers.

The HPE Synergy solution for Kubernetes and Portworx PX-Enterprise provides the following benefits:

  • App Services: Kubernetes provides load balancing, DNS and built-in services.

  • Rapid deployment: Synergy image streamer for seamless expansion and contraction of compute and storage resources to optimize resource needs of the container infrastructure.
