HPE (Hewlett Packard Enterprise) announced private cloud, storage and cyber resilience solutions to support AI workloads.
SiliconANGLE reported on May 12 that the newly launched fourth-generation HPE Private Cloud uses HPE Morpheus software to manage virtual machines (VMs) and Kubernetes containers through a single interface.
It also added support for the latest HPE ProLiant Compute Gen12 servers, along with integration with Veeam backup and recovery software and the HPE Zerto disaster recovery platform.
Angel Peñilla ( 앤젤 페닐라), vice president of product engineering for HPE Private Cloud, said, "AI does not run in just one place." He said, "Most organisations have a problem with uncontrolled AI development. HPE's strategy is to provide a single operating model and control platform that can flow from core to edge."
On the storage side, file storage support was added to the HPE Alletra Storage MP X10000 platform. Previously it focused only on object storage, but it now supports file and object storage at the same time. The number of nodes was also expanded to 16, and the company said it also supports remote direct memory access (RDMA) file storage to accelerate AI pipelines.
Gokul Sathyakama ( 고쿨 사티아카마), vice president of HPE storage products, said, "Many companies prefer a method where model training is done in the cloud to protect sensitive data, while inference and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) are done on-premises."
HPE Zerto Software 10.9, launched to target the cyber resilience market, strengthens AI-based protection features, recovery automation and support for HPE VM hypervisor environments. It also supports MCP (Model Context Protocol) so that AI tools can interact directly with Zerto.
