Managing business infrastructure today is like juggling multiple balls in the air: balancing a compute platform including traditional servers on the one hand, cloud resources on the other, and constant security threats demanding your attention. Imagine if this could be as seamless as a single, smooth motion: a unified platform streamlining server modernization by integrating on-premises and cloud environments effortlessly.
Organizations face significant challenges in optimizing their infrastructure to meet growing operational demands while managing costs. One of the key areas of concern is the imbalance between memory and CPU utilization, which highlights the need for innovative solutions like memory tiering and data storage optimization. Without addressing these inefficiencies, organizations face increased total cost of ownership (TCO) and underutilized processing power, resulting in wasted resources, including software licenses, power, and cooling.
Modern higher education campuses rely on a strong digital infrastructure. As each incoming graduating class grows more technically savvy and more devices and applications become integral to learning, universities and colleges require high-performance networks to support the needs of students, faculty, and staff while safeguarding sensitive data from cyber threats.
The limitations of on-premises hardware have often constrained traditional network infrastructure. As hybrid work models become increasingly prevalent, the demand for effective remote collaboration strategies has risen. Network-as-a-service (NaaS) emerges as a critical component of modern network architectures, offering scalable, secure, and flexible solutions to support distributed workforces. NaaS also allows organizations to access and utilize network resources on a subscription basis, thereby aligning their network capabilities with their evolving needs.
In this article, we’ll explore how one such solution plays a pivotal role in addressing these demands.

Michael Lewis coined the term, Moneyball, in his eponymous book published in 2003 and made into a movie in 2011 starring Brad Pitt. Moneyball was about applying analytics to baseball. Billy Beane, the Oakland Athletics General Manager, was the first baseball executive to use analytics to increase the probability of winning games.
As businesses continue to adopt private cloud environments, the need for flexible and efficient management solutions is more critical than ever. Organizations looking to control their infrastructure while balancing security and scalability often turn to enterprise private cloud solutions. HPE GreenLake for Private Cloud Business Edition provides a robust platform to tackle common challenges, offering flexible private cloud options that optimize workloads across both on-premises and hybrid cloud environments.
In the previous posts in this series, we explored the fundamentals of cloud governance, strategies for managing shadow IT, best practices for building a Cloud Center of Excellence (CCoE) and implementing continuous compliance on AWS. As organizations increasingly adopt DevOps practices to accelerate innovation, the challenge becomes ensuring that security is seamlessly integrated into this rapid development and deployment cycle. In this post, we’ll explore how to enable secure DevOps practices on AWS, highlighting key principles and best practices for embedding security into every phase of your development workflows.
Managing server hardware costs is a constant challenge for organizations. Take memory, for example: it is essential for virtualized environments, but often comes with a high price tag. This issue is especially pronounced for Tier 2 and Tier 3 cluster deployments, where budget constraints can hinder performance optimization.
In my previous article, I wanted to show people what SASE is, what SASE is NOT, what ZTNA 2.0 means, and how this architecture and mindset can benefit your organization. Here, I want to take things to the next step and discuss the common pain points that lead customers towards a SASE solution as well as help answer any key questions that may lead to a network/security/WAN transformation.
Finally, I wanted to remind anyone reading this article: The SASE help you need is here! Now, let’s dive in.
Today, enterprise networking and security face a growing challenge stemming from an ever-expanding attack surface and company perimeter (every user and every application is a company perimeter). The front line is everywhere! With the majority of employees working off site, and the majority your enterprise data is off site in the cloud/in SaaS applications etc., each of these factors produce data leaks, resulting in a “perfect storm” for data security.
