HPE Unveils New HPE ProLiant Gen11 Servers

HPE Greenlake

The new HPE ProLiant Gen11 servers would give businesses “easy-to-use, reliable, and optimized” computing resources that would fit a variety of contemporary workloads, such as artificial intelligence (AI), analytics, cloud-native applications, graphically demanding applications, machine learning (ML), virtualization, and remote desktop infrastructure (VDI).

Organizations nowadays would need optimized computing and enhanced compute performance as they operate more demanding workloads, such as AI, machine learning, and rendering projects. The next-generation HPE ProLiant Gen11 servers support a wide range of architectures, including 4th Generation AMD EPYC processors, 4th Generation Intel Xeon Scalable processors, as well as Ampere Altra and Ampere Altra Max Cloud Native Processors, and are optimized to deliver high performance on an organization’s most data-intensive workloads.

According to HPE, the new HPE ProLiant Gen11 servers come with three improvements over the previous generation: 50% more cores per CPU for improved workload consolidation, twice as much I/O bandwidth for the most demanding applications, and 33% more high-performance GPU density per server to support AI and graphically demanding workloads.

‘Trusted Security by Design’

Starting at the silicon level with the HPE Silicon Root of Trust, HPE would deliver highly secured infrastructure, from edge to cloud. The HPE Silicon Root of Trust is a security feature that protects millions of lines of firmware code from malware and ransomware with a digital fingerprint that is specific to the server. Millions of HPE servers are now protected worldwide by the HPE Silicon Root of Trust.

With the following new features to safeguard systems and data, the next-generation HPE ProLiant servers would expand on this security breakthrough:

  • Ensure verification and authentication for device components – with iLO6, the most recent iteration of the HPE Integrated Lights-Out (iLO). Clients may safely setup, monitor, and upgrade HPE servers with the help of ILO, a remote server management tool. In the most recent version, new authentication is provided utilizing the Security Protocol and Data Model (SPDM), a crucial security feature in servers for authenticating and securely monitoring devices using an open standards-based methodology.
  • Prevent alterations to unique server identity access – including the default integration of Secure Device Identity (iDevID) and platform certifications.
  • Gain an additional layer of authentication by monitoring a secure boot and system state – through the Trusted Platform Module (TPM).
  • Adopt the highest level of security through the HPE Trusted Supply Chain – With certified servers that would offer enhanced data security during the manufacturing process, the HPE Trusted Supply Chain promotes end-to-end security. HPE recently expanded its ability to manufacture and distribute certified servers from US-based manufacturers all around the world.

“The foundation of any hybrid strategy is compute,” said Neil MacDonald, Executive Vice President and General Manager, Compute, at HPE. “HPE Compute brings businesses closer to the edge, where data is created, where new cloud experiences are delivered, and where security is integral. The new HPE ProLiant Gen11 servers are engineered for the hybrid world to deliver an intuitive cloud operating experience, trusted security by design, and optimized performance for workloads.”

Cloud-Native Operations

“We need the ability to process data and make those decisions faster, at the edge, and that is why the team deployed a mobile data center, based on HPE ProLiant servers,” said Michael Taylor, IT Director, Mercedes-AMG Petronas Formula One Team.

An HPE GreenLake for Compute Ops Management subscription offers a cloud-native management console for the HPE ProLiant Gen11 servers. By securely automating the process to access, monitor, and manage servers, regardless of where the computing environment is located, this would help improve operational efficiency.

The interface would offer straightforward, uniform, and automated features that let users manage their computing resources with insight and visibility throughout the world. According to HPE, ProLiant server clients may benefit from quicker server firmware upgrades and the simple onboarding of thousands of dispersed devices, allowing them to concentrate their efforts on running their businesses rather than on maintaining a complicated IT infrastructure.

ProLiant server customers may examine emission measurements, from individual servers to complete compute environments, using HPE GreenLake for Compute Ops Management’s carbon footprint reporting feature.

Pay-As-You-Go Model

In order to make the switch from one generation to the next, businesses may either acquire HPE’s next-generation computing infrastructure outright or use its pay-as-you-go HPE GreenLake service. With more than 70 cloud services available, HPE GreenLake is a platform that companies can use to speed up data-first modernization. These services may be used on-premises, at the edge, in a colocation facility, or in the public cloud.

HPE’s clients may also convert their existing technology assets into money to buy new or updated technology through HPE Financial Services (HPEFS).

Customers adopting HPE ProLiant Gen11 servers can take advantage of in-depth global expertise to deploy next-generation HPE ProLiant servers and create new experiences, gain real-time insights from their data, and modernize IT to unlock value through HPE Pointnext Services, a global team of over 15,000 experts.

“We don’t have the luxury of time to relay data back to the factory to process and send results back to the track,” said Michael Taylor, IT Director, Mercedes-AMG Petronas Formula One Team. “We need the ability to process data and make those decisions faster, at the edge, and that is why the team deployed a mobile data center, based on HPE ProLiant servers, to provide our engineering team with the processing power required to compute and visualize data at-scale. There is no doubt that next-generation HPE ProLiant servers will provide the same level of reliability with even greater performance and capabilities to process data-intensive workloads at the edge to unlock insights in real-time.”

Availability HPE ProLiant Gen11 Servers

Beginning on November 10, 2022, HPE ProLiant Gen11 servers with AMD EPYCTM 4th Generation CPUs will be available for purchase through the HPE GreenLake cloud platform.

Orders for the Ampere-powered HPE ProLiant RL300 Gen11 server may be made from anywhere globally right now.

Users may buy any HPE ProLiant server through HPE or one of its channel partners.
