What HPE does
HPE's ProLiant line covers general-purpose enterprise servers, while StoreOnce is HPE's disk-based deduplication appliance purpose-built as a backup repository — the 3720/3760 models target remote-office and SMB deployments specifically, with built-in encryption, immutability and air-gapped protection aimed at ransomware.
Where it fits
Backup & Disaster Recovery — StoreOnce serves as the on-premises backup repository that scheduled jobs (via Veeam or another backup platform) write to, giving a client a local, deduplicated, immutable copy alongside any offsite replication.
Typical deployments
SMEs and regulated businesses (finance, legal, accounting) that need a local deduplicated backup target with immutability against ransomware, rather than relying solely on cloud backup for recovery speed.
