HPE Aruba Rolls Out Virtual Private Cloud and On-Premises Deployment Options for MSPs

Hewlett Packard Enterprise introduced an expansion of HPE Aruba Networking Central, the company’s AI-powered network management solution, with new deployment options, including a virtual private cloud (VPC) environment and an on-premises option that can operate while being disconnected from the cloud.

Elements include an always-on, automated network AIOps capability that monitors critical wired and wireless network operations to optimize network operations and detect performance issues. A fabric of AI assistants acts as network architects, monitoring and gathering data, providing diagnostics and recommendations to extend existing capacity and performance, close security gaps, and identify configuration errors before they impact network operations.

The platforms also has full-stack network observability and data lake telemetry for both heterogenous network environments and critical IT applications. New additions include a one-year subscription powered by OpsRamp, a Hewlett Packard Enterprise company, for monitoring capabilities of third-party devices. HPE Aruba Networking Central will also provide deeper visibility into real time apps such as Microsoft Teams.

HPE Aruba Networking Central On-Premises for Government provides a new deployment option, which includes FIPS 140-2 certified server hardware to meet related government security requirements. This comprehensive network management solution boosts enterprise efficiency for emerging use cases such as AI data capture, training, and inferencing, which require greater control via air-gapped on-premises and cloud-based VPC options. The public cloud and VPC deployment choices leverage the global presence of HPE GreenLake cloud, which offers local cloud presence in many geographies.

“Organizations are increasingly prioritizing data sovereignty, requiring regional and local presence for mission-critical IT solutions,” said Phil Mottram, EVP and general manager, HPE Aruba Networking. “With these innovations, HPE now uniquely addresses the most pressing enterprise challenges for corporate, nonprofit, and government entities with unprecedented network management deployment flexibility,”

HPE Aruba Networking Central can now be deployed as cloud-delivered SaaS, VPC, on-premises, or NaaS solution to address the requirements of enterprises and government entities alike, satisfying regulatory constraints and adherence to standards such as GDPR and FINRA.
