“Organizations face a complex web of fragmented hardware, software, and manual processes, making it difficult for them to compete and innovate in a constantly changing marketplace,” said Antonio Neri, President and CEO, HPE. “HPE was the first to recognize the need to deliver a unified and consistent cloud experience, from edge to cloud, with HPE GreenLake. Today’s announcement builds on this strategy, by enabling our customers to break down silos and leverage data, wherever it resides, with unified data operations. As we enter the Age of Insight, HPE is providing the ideal platform for organizations seeking to apply distributed data to fuel AI initiatives, deliver new customer experiences, and drive digital transformation.”

“HPE is changing the storage game by bringing a full cloud operational model to our customers’ on-premises environments,” said Tom Black, SVP and GM, HPE Storage. “Bringing the cloud operational model to where data lives accelerates digital transformation, streamlines data management, and will help our customers innovate faster than ever before.”“It’s getting harder to manage the ever-increasing data flooding organizations,” said Matt Eastwood, Senior Vice President, Enterprise Infrastructure, Cloud, Developers, and Alliances, at IDC. “HPE’s vision and strategy for Unified DataOps is promising as it takes an original approach to solving this burgeoning problem.  As an industry leader, HPE is providing the market with answers for how to capitalize on information, wherever it resides, to transform their business with data.”

Today’s introduction of a new data services platform delivers on the Unified DataOps vision with the Data Services Cloud Console, cloud data services, and HPE Alletra – that together bring cloud operational agility and streamline data management for customers.
