HPE makes the network. WWT makes it work for you.
Every team has visibility into their own domain. The challenge has never been the data — it's connecting it into a complete operational picture. HPE Networking brings together the industry's most comprehensive AI-native portfolio — spanning campus, branch, data center, and AI infrastructure — into a unified platform designed to follow every workload from the user to the application and back again. The result isn't just a smarter network. It's the operational intelligence to understand not just what happened, but why.
World Wide Technology brings something no reseller can: the ability to design, test, and validate HPE Networking solutions in our Advanced Technology Center before a single cable is pulled in your environment. That means less risk, faster deployment, and a network that's proven to perform from day one. Together, HPE's industry-leading technology and WWT's end-to-end expertise give you a smarter path to a self-driving network — one that's built for AI, secured from the start, and backed by a team that stays with you for the long run.
HPE Networking Solutions Overview
HPE Networking is leading the industry toward the era of self-driving networks — combining the strengths of the HPE Aruba Networking and HPE Juniper Networking portfolios into one comprehensive, AI-powered platform. Our focus spans two transformative dimensions:
AI for Networks
Harness the power of artificial intelligence to simplify day-to-day network management — and go further, connecting operational insight across every domain of the enterprise. HPE Networking uses AI to automate routine operations, detect anomalies before they become outages, and continuously optimize performance across your entire environment. But the bigger shift is correlation: bringing together what networking, compute, storage, wireless, and cloud are each seeing into a single operational story.
Each component of the HPE portfolio plays a specific role in that story:
- Juniper Mist delivers AI-native visibility into user experience and digital experience — understanding how clients connect, roam, authenticate, and interact with applications from the moment they join the network.
- Juniper Apstra provides intent-based fabric management for the data center, continuously validating that the production environment matches its intended design and surfacing configuration drift before it affects applications.
- Marvis AI applies AI-driven reasoning to correlate events across domains, answer operational questions in natural language, identify probable root causes, and recommend corrective actions — reducing the time between detecting a problem and understanding why it occurred.
- HPE Networking Flow provides application-aware visibility into how workloads communicate across the network, so teams can understand not just whether infrastructure is running, but whether everything is working together as intended.
- GreenLake Intelligence serves as the AI reasoning layer that ties infrastructure domains together, providing the cross-stack context that turns isolated telemetry into actionable operational insight.
New agentic AI capabilities extend these capabilities further — leveraging predictive analytics, advanced reasoning engines, and trusted automated actions to proactively identify root causes, recommend remediation steps, and increasingly resolve issues without human intervention.
Networks for AI
The rise of AI inference and AI training demands network infrastructure that can handle massive, low-latency workloads at scale. HPE Networking delivers the high-throughput, high-efficiency fabric that modern AI data centers require — helping organizations get the most out of their AI investments. And because every AI workload ultimately depends on the network, operational intelligence across the full stack becomes even more critical: understanding how AI services interact with compute, storage, identity, and cloud is what separates a well-running AI environment from one that's difficult to troubleshoot and hard to scale.

The HPE Self-Driving Network
Today's performance issues rarely come from failed hardware. Modern switching platforms, enterprise storage, and cloud platforms are more resilient than ever. What's become increasingly complex is everything above the hardware layer — configuration drift, policy changes, software updates, automation, and application dependencies that span teams who can't easily see each other's data. The challenge isn't reliability. It's understanding how one change ripples across dozens of interconnected systems.
HPE is advancing a vision for self-driving networks that addresses this directly — combining AI-native operations, agentic reasoning, automation, and zero-trust security into a unified operating model that understands relationships across the infrastructure, not just within individual domains. This isn't a distant roadmap — it's a strategy being delivered today, with real capabilities announced at HPE Discover 2026 spanning campus, branch, data center, security, and AI infrastructure.
By bringing together HPE Aruba Networking, HPE Juniper Networking, HPE Mist, Marvis AI, Apstra, and EdgeConnect into a single portfolio, organizations can move beyond reactive management toward autonomous operations that continuously validate change, optimize performance, improve resiliency, and simplify IT at scale. The result is a network that doesn't just connect users and applications — it actively helps operate and secure the business.
HPE Marvis AI and a new generation of advanced reasoning agents deliver the intelligence behind self-driving networking. These capabilities go beyond traditional analytics—proactively identifying root causes, recommending and executing remediation actions, and continuously learning from network telemetry to prevent issues before users are impacted.
- Marvis AI in Aruba Central – Trusted automated actions across wired, wireless, and SD-WAN, including wired port remediation, reducing manual intervention at scale.
