The HPE SimpliVity Data Virtualization Platform is designed with a modular architecture that includes several key layers. Among these, the Presentation Layer and the Data Management Layer are fundamental components (Options A and D).

The Presentation Layer is responsible for the user interface and the interaction between the user and the system. It provides the tools necessary for administrators to manage and monitor the storage environment efficiently.

The Data Management Layer handles the core functions of the SimpliVity platform, including data deduplication, compression, and optimization. This layer ensures that data is stored and managed efficiently, reducing storage costs and improving performance.

These layers work together to deliver the full capabilities of the SimpliVity platform, enabling simplified management and robust data services in a hyper-converged infrastructure environment.

For a customer needing a centralized storage solution accessible by Windows-based laptops and other personal devices, file-oriented storage accessed over SMB (Option D) is the most appropriate recommendation. SMB (Server Message Block) is a network file sharing protocol that allows files to be shared among devices running on a Windows network.

File-oriented storage solutions, like HPE's StoreEasy or Nimble with file services, are designed to serve files over the network using SMB, providing easy and secure access to departmental data.

When proposing a StoreOnce solution to a customer transitioning from tape backups, it’s crucial to correctly size the deduplication requirements. OCA (Outcome-based Capacity Analyzer) is the recommended tool for this purpose. OCA helps to predict and size the deduplication storage needs by analyzing the data types and patterns, ensuring that the StoreOnce system is correctly configured to handle the customer’s backup workloads efficiently.

When managing HPE Primera arrays, it's important to assess the current compaction ratios to understand how effectively data is being stored.

NinjaStars is an HPE tool specifically designed to analyze and report on data reduction technologies, including deduplication and compression, on HPE storage arrays like Primera. It helps in determining the compaction ratios, providing insights into how efficiently the storage capacity is being utilized.
