As a highlight of the event, World Wide Technology (WWT) was recognized as HPE's Solution Provider and AI Solution Provider for 2025, reflecting its leadership in delivering transformative HPE-based solutions across AI, hybrid cloud, and data protection. This award reinforces WWT's continued commitment to helping customers innovate faster and smarter.
AI Factories and Infrastructure: HPE and NVIDIA Join Forces
A headline announcement from HPE Discover 2025 is the expanded partnership between HPE and NVIDIA, underscoring both companies' commitment to accelerating enterprise AI adoption at scale. At the core of this collaboration is the introduction of next-generation AI Factory solutions—end-to-end offerings that span the entire AI lifecycle: from design and financing to development, deployment, and ongoing operations. These turnkey solutions are designed to eliminate friction by integrating hardware, software, and services into a scalable, enterprise-ready architecture.
Central to these solutions are the newly introduced HPE Compute XD690 and HPE ProLiant Gen12 servers, both powered by NVIDIA Blackwell Ultra GPUs. These platforms deliver industry-leading performance for AI training, fine-tuning, and inference. They are optimized for large-scale generative AI workloads, including LLMs and deep learning models, with high-speed interconnects and memory bandwidth to minimize data processing bottlenecks.
The AI Factory initiative also incorporates NVIDIA AI Enterprise software and leverages HPE GreenLake for AI to offer a flexible, pay-as-you-go consumption model. This allows organizations to scale AI initiatives while maintaining control over data governance and regulatory compliance. Together, HPE and NVIDIA are democratizing access to advanced AI infrastructure and reducing time-to-value across industries.
In the next step in the evolution of the intelligent storage platform, HPE will be adding the integration with MCP (Model Context Protocol) server to the X10000 system. HPE has officially confirmed that its Alletra Storage MP X10000 will receive Model Context Protocol (MCP) server support in the second half of 2025, marking a significant milestone toward agentic, AI-ready storage. With MCP integration, the X10000 can provide intelligent context about unstructured data directly into AI pipelines, enabling GreenLake Intelligence and AI agents to orchestrate data management via natural-language or programmatic interfaces.
Further enhancing its AI utility, the X10000 will align with the NVIDIA AI Data Platform reference design, and HPE will offer a dedicated SDK to streamline data ingestion, training, continuous learning, and inference across unstructured datasets. This combination of context-aware storage, optimized data pipelines, and standardized SDK tools positions the X10000 as a foundational element in scalable AI Factory architectures.
Modernizing Virtualization, Edge and AI Workloads with HPE ProLiant Gen12 Servers
HPE announced an expansion to the HPE ProLiant Compute Gen12 server portfolio, which delivers next-level security, performance and efficiency. The expanded portfolio includes two new servers powered by 5th Gen AMD EPYC processors to optimize memory-intensive workloads, and new automation features for greater visibility and control delivered through HPE Compute Ops Management.
Also, the HPE ProLiant DL380a Gen12 server now supports up to 10 NVIDIA RTX 6000 Blackwell Server Edition GPUs, delivering high-density compute for advanced AI workloads. Optimized for multimodal inference, model fine-tuning, and enterprise-grade graphics, this configuration accelerates performance across AI pipelines, from physical AI to real-time design and visualization tasks.
GreenLake Intelligence: From Hybrid Cloud to Agentic AI
HPE is transforming GreenLake into an agentic, AI-powered hybrid cloud that learns, acts, and optimizes IT operations in real time. Branded as GreenLake Intelligence, this evolution embeds autonomous AI agents across the entire IT stack—covering networking, storage, compute, observability, and FinOps. These agents enable self-healing, policy-driven operations that dramatically reduce manual overhead while enhancing performance and uptime.
By integrating GreenLake Intelligence with ecosystem tools like OpsRamp and Morpheus, HPE offers centralized observability, orchestration, and automation through a unified control plane. This intelligent fabric supports both cloud-native and traditional workloads and is designed to adapt in real time to changing business needs. As enterprises seek more efficient, scalable hybrid IT, GreenLake becomes a key enabler of next-gen operations.
Private Cloud AI and New Services for AI Adoption
Complementing the GreenLake evolution, HPE launched a next-generation Private Cloud AI solution, purpose-built for secure, high-performance AI workloads. It supports flexible deployment across on-premises, co-located, and sovereign cloud environments—giving enterprises full control over data sovereignty and compliance, without compromising on scalability or agility.
This architecture includes optimized compute, accelerated storage, and native support for NVIDIA GPUs, making it ideal for generative AI models, machine learning workflows, and inference at scale. The platform integrates seamlessly with GreenLake and features automation for provisioning, lifecycle management, and workload orchestration.
To support adoption, HPE introduced new consulting, migration, and lifecycle services. These offerings guide customers from AI readiness assessments to deployment and operational support, helping reduce risk and shorten time-to-value. HPE also provides industry-specific blueprints and leverages its extensive partner network to accelerate production-ready deployments.
Cyber Resilience: Expanding Data Protection Partnerships
As cyber threats continue to grow in scale and complexity, HPE has deepened its alliances with Veeam and Commvault to deliver a unified, enterprise-class data protection strategy. These integrations enhance cyber resilience and disaster recovery capabilities across hybrid cloud environments.
Through Veeam, HPE is embedding advanced backup and recovery into GreenLake and HPE Storage platforms—streamlining protection for virtual, containerized, and SaaS workloads. The integration improves RPOs and RTOs, ensuring near-instant data recovery in the event of a disruption.
With Commvault, HPE delivers zero-trust architecture, intelligent threat detection, and policy-based automation, aligning with compliance requirements such as GDPR, HIPAA, and CCPA. These partnerships reflect HPE's commitment to embedding security across the full lifecycle of hybrid IT—from edge to cloud to data center.
Scaling Impact with Unleash AI and Partner Ecosystem
HPE's Unleash AI program continues to grow, now featuring 26 new partners and over 75 validated AI use cases. This program accelerates real-world innovation by providing curated technology stacks, expert consulting, and fast-start bundles to simplify deployment and accelerate ROI.
One notable use case is Vaidio, an HPE AI partner whose Vision AI platform runs on Private Cloud AI. It transforms IP camera feeds into actionable intelligence for anomaly detection, behavioral analysis, and security enforcement—enabling smarter operations in healthcare, retail, manufacturing, and public safety.
By lowering the barrier to entry and reducing deployment friction, Unleash AI helps customers bridge innovation with tangible business outcomes across diverse verticals.
Unified CloudOps and a Stronger Partner Ecosystem
To support scalable, enterprise-grade operations, HPE unveiled a unified CloudOps suite that brings together three critical capabilities: Morpheus for orchestration, OpsRamp for observability, and Zerto for data protection. By combining these tools into a single platform, HPE delivers centralized control, end-to-end visibility, and automated continuity across hybrid and multi-cloud environments—all accessible from a single pane of glass.
In parallel, HPE is transforming how partners engage with its ecosystem through the launch of Partner Ready Vantage on November 1. This modular partner program unifies resell, co-sell, and service delivery into one streamlined framework. It offers simplified access to HPE's full portfolio—including compute, storage, networking, edge, SASE, and AI—while reducing complexity around training, certifications, and incentives. The goal: enable faster go-to-market motions and empower partners to build differentiated solutions in a competitive landscape.
