HPE GreenLake news and updates from Discover Virtual Experience

[CalvinZito]

We've covered the storage focused news from Discover here on ATSB. In this post, I wanted to highlight the HPE GreenLake news we had. I have a podcast with Don Randall who works on our HPE GreenLake team. To summarize things, we announced HPE GreenLake cloud services for containers; machine learning operations; virtual machines, storage, and compute; data protection; and the intelligent edge. They come in small, medium, and large configurations, and can be delivered in as few as 14 days. Don and I dive into this in the podcast.  

There's a high level overview of what we announced on the Cloud Experience Everywhere blog. That article is titled Transform your apps and data, wherever they reside: Introducing HPE GreenLake cloud services. 

I have a podcast that I did with Don at VMworld 2019 talking about VMware Cloud Foundation as a Service with HPE GreenLake last Fall. This is a good compliment to that podcast. 

Here's the podcast with the HPE GreenLake news.

Here's also a link where you can download the MP3 file of the podcast.
