HPE

Enterprise IT Infrastructure from Hewlett Packard Enterprise

Hewlett Packard Enterprise builds the Aruba networking equipment, ProLiant server hardware, and data center infrastructure that enterprise IT departments deploy when uptime, scalability, and vendor support are non-negotiable. The portfolio spans Aruba CX campus switches, Instant On SMB networking, ProLiant rack and tower servers, SFP transceivers, power supplies, and mounting accessories for critical infrastructure. Deploy HPE Aruba switching alongside network firewalls and rack enclosures for complete campus and data center infrastructure.

HPE for Every Environment

• Campus and enterprise LAN deployments — Aruba CX 6000 and 6100 switches deliver Layer 2/3 switching with PoE, stacking via VSF, and Aruba Central cloud management for multi-building campus networks
• Small and mid-size business offices — Aruba Instant On switches and access points provide simplified, mobile-app-managed networking with enterprise-grade security features at SMB price points
• Server rooms and data centers — ProLiant DL and ML servers offer configurable compute platforms for virtualization, database, file serving, and hybrid cloud workloads with iLO remote management
• Healthcare, education, and government — Aruba dynamic segmentation and ClearPass policy enforcement deliver zero-trust network access for regulated environments with strict compliance requirements
• Retail and distributed branch offices — Aruba SD-Branch gateways combine routing, firewall, and WAN optimization in a single device for remote locations managed centrally through Aruba Central

What Sets HPE Apart

HPE differentiates through its combination of Aruba's AI-powered network management and ProLiant's enterprise server heritage. Aruba Central provides AIOps-driven insights including anomaly detection, client troubleshooting, and capacity planning that reduce mean time to resolution across wired and wireless networks. The Aruba CX platform runs on AOS-CX, a modern, REST API-native operating system built for automation and programmability, a significant architectural advantage over legacy CLI-first platforms. On the compute side, ProLiant servers are consistently rated among the most reliable x86 platforms by ITIC, with iLO providing out-of-band management, firmware updates, and hardware health monitoring independent of the operating system.
