Hewlett Packard Enterprise Co. has been steadily refining GreenLake cloud, a hybrid cloud designed to deploy and manage resources across public and private infrastructure.

This week, HPE rolled out Private Cloud AI, a self-serve cloud experience in partnership with Nvidia Corp. and enabled by the GreenLake hybrid platform.

“We kept hybrid cloud in mind, and we kept building a lot of features for solving hybrid cloud needs or the challenges that customers are facing,” said Latha Vishnubhotla (pictured, right), chief platform officer of HPE. “This cloud offers a variety of capabilities for customers to run their traditional cloud-native, AI-native workloads. It’s a cloud that comes to you.”

Vishnubhotla spoke with theCUBE Research’s Rebecca Knight and Rob Strechay at HPE Discover, during an exclusive broadcast on theCUBE, SiliconANGLE Media’s livestreaming studio. She was joined by Tony Koinov (left), senior vice president and general manager of the GreenLake platform at HPE, and they discussed GreenLake’s multicloud capabilities and helping customers with operational challenges.

Building a platform-first GreenLake cloud experience

Enhancements to the HPE’s GreenLake platform over the past year have included optimized file storage to support more scalable AI workloads and a partnership with Microsoft Corp. for generative AI integration in Azure.

“Since cloud adoption has started, the reality is that the businesses, the enterprises have struggled to gain the cloud economics across the complete suite of their workloads,” Koinov said. “We have built from the ground up a platform-first cloud experience for them so that we are providing a single cloud, for their multivendor, multicloud estate … a single platform that rings common data, common services, common practices across all of their infrastructure.”

One area of focus for HPE has been the operations cycle, from initial setup and deployment of technologies on Day 0 and Day 1, to monitoring, troubleshooting and performance optimization on Day 2 and beyond. HPE’s OpsRamp management and monitoring solution has played a role in helping customers navigate the operational challenges.

“When I talk to many customers, the Day 0/Day 1 aspects are one set of problems they need to worry about, but it’s the Day 2 operations where they are really concerned,” Vishnubhotla said. “What we have in the platform, with the OpsRamp capability, is for hybrid multicloud or multivendor operations. No matter which service you use on the platform, you get a consistent end-to-end experience Day 0, Day 1 or Day 2.”
