Today’s digital transformation journey requires the ability to address key data challenges that enterprises are facing today: data-first modernization. Data-first led organizations realize data is their most valuable asset because it fuels business success. As a matter of fact, data-first organizations delivered 49% more product/innovation in the last year than their non-data-centric competitors1. As valuable as this advancement may be, it isn’t easy. Data and the systems it relies on has traditionally been complex and siloed across a multi-generational, hybrid IT environment – and the edge is often an afterthought. The good news is that your environment doesn’t have to be like this. HPE has taken a different approach to help you unlock new revenue streams with compute that extracts value from data.

Data is the driver of value creation, and a key principle for business success
Businesses of all sizes, across virtually every industry, are going through a digital transformation. Leaders quickly realize that they must address a critical issue that can differentiate them from the competition and set them up for growth: data-first modernization.
We understand there are challenges as you transform to a hybrid world and become more data-driven. You face multiple issues: legacy infrastructure, complex operations, security risks and inefficiencies all become barriers to extracting value from your data. To accelerate digital transformation, a modern compute infrastructure should be engineered for your increasingly hybrid environment. Compute developed for the hybrid world can unlock new revenue streams and bring you closer to the edge – where data is created, where new cloud experiences are delivered, where security is integral, and where your workloads have always-on reliability.
The right choice of compute is the key to innovating faster with a modern, data-first strategy
How does one begin – and how do I ensure that I take the right path going forward?
If you start with the basic premise that the key to unlocking value from your data is a modern data-first strategy, the logical next step is to make the right choice of compute so you can innovate faster using this newly-gleaned information.
The foundation of your hybrid strategy is compute – and HPE ProLiant is what you should bet your hybrid strategy on – for today and tomorrow.
“Why?” you may ask.
This next generation of HPE ProLiant is secure, efficient, optimized, and it’s engineered for your hybrid world. It completes your hybrid environment wherever it lives—spanning edge to cloud—with a cloud operating experience, built-in security, and optimized performance for your workloads to drive your business forward.
Let’s break down the three key principles that went into the design of our next generation of HPE ProLiant:
- An intuitive cloud operating experience that is simple, unified, and automated. It helps you simplify the way you manage compute from edge to cloud with global visibility. It accomplishes this via a unified console, HPE GreenLake for Compute Ops Management, allowing you to easily onboard thousands of distributed devices, and enabling you to update your server firmware 5X faster. You can automate tasks for efficiency in deployment, experience instant scalability, and enjoy seamless, simplified support and lifecycle management. All allowing you to spend your time focusing on adding value to your business – not managing complex IT infrastructure.
- Trusted security by design that is fundamental, uncompromising, and protected. HPE continues to lead and deliver infrastructure security innovations, with a zero-trust lifecycle approach from silicon to cloud, that continuously protects and defends your infrastructure, workloads, and data, against increasingly complex threats. With the evolution of next-gen compute, we are extending iLO6 authentication to select storage controllers and networking cards with Security Protocol and Data Model (SPDM) to ensure the integrity of each unit. Our Trusted Supply Chain security program has also been expanded globally and across more platforms.
- Optimized performance for your workloads that is accelerated, efficient and open. Get the performance you demand to accelerate any workload —from the data center to the edge. First, the next generation of HPE ProLiant will deliver new levels of efficiency to power applications and the right economics for optimal business value both in the data center and across the edge. Second, this new generation brings optimal performance for demanding applications that require the most advanced graphics and data acceleration. Finally, we want to help you address the new wave of data center needs with an open approach. This includes delivering efficiencies for cloud-native workloads at scale and enhancing infrastructure as code - building on decades of commitment from HPE to industry standards.
The way you access your compute power is up to you
As you consider next-generation HPE ProLiant Compute, now may be the time to move to an as-a-Service model with HPE GreenLake to deploy full-scale projects, quickly, through a pay-as-you-go consumption model. HPE GreenLake offers you the flexibility to choose where and how you consume your compute to best fit your business and budget – at the edge, in your data centers, and in colocations - turning your compute power into a fully scalable operational expense that you can dial up or down to meet your evolving needs.
HPE GreenLake platform brings the cloud to you, to your apps and data – wherever they are located – so you can accelerate time to value, improve operations, better manage capital expenses, and enable your team to use their time to innovate for your business.
