Curated AI and data software stack in HPE Private Cloud AI
The foundation of the AI and data software stack starts with the NVIDIA AI Enterprise Software platform, which includes NVIDIA NIM™ Inference Microservices.
NVIDIA AI Enterprise accelerates data science pipelines and streamlines the development and deployment of production-grade copilots and other GenAI applications. Included with NVIDIA AI Enterprise, NVIDIA NIM provides easy-to-use microservices for optimized AI model inference providing a smooth transition from prototype to secure deployment of AI models in a variety of use cases.
Complementing NVIDIA AI Enterprise and NVIDIA NIM, HPE AI Essentials software provides a set of ready-to-use AI and data foundation tools with a unified control plane that delivers adaptable solutions, ongoing enterprise support and trusted AI services, such as data and model compliance and extensible capabilities that ensure AI pipelines are compliant, explainable, and repeatable throughout the AI lifecycle.
To deliver optimal performance to the AI and data software stack, HPE Private Cloud AI offers a fully integrated AI infrastructure stack that includes NVIDIA Spectrum-X™ Ethernet NetworkHPE GreenLake servers for File Storage and HPE ProLiant with support for Nvidia L40S, NVIDIA H100 NVL Tensor Core GPU and the NVIDIA GH200 NVL2 Platform.
HPE GreenLake Cloud-Enabled Cloud Experience
HPE Private Cloud AI delivers a self-service cloud experience enabled by the HPE GreenLake cloud. With a single platform-based control plane, HPE Greenlake Cloud Services provide manageability and observability to automate, orchestrate and manage endpoints, workloads and data in hybrid environments. This includes sustainability measures for workloads and endpoints.
HPE GreenLake Cloud and OpsRamp AI Infrastructure Observability and Copilot Assistant
OpsRamp IT operations are integrated with the HPE GreenLake cloud to deliver observability and AIOps across all HPE products and services. OpsRamp now provides observability for the end-to-end NVIDIA accelerated computing stack, including NVIDIA NIM and AI software, NVIDIA Tensor Core GPUs and AI clusters, and NVIDIA Quantum InfiniBand and NVIDIA Spectrum Ethernet switches. IT administrators can gain insights to identify anomalies and monitor their AI infrastructure and workloads in hybrid and multi-cloud environments.
The new OpsRamp Operations Copilot uses NVIDIA’s accelerated computing platform to analyze large data sets for insights with a conversational assistant, increasing productivity for operations management. OpsRamp will also integrate with CrowdStrike APIs so customers can see a unified view of the endpoint security service map across their entire infrastructure and applications.
Accelerate time to value with AI — expanded collaboration with global systems integrators
To accelerate enterprise ROI to develop industry-focused AI solutions and use cases with clear business benefits, Deloitte, HCLTech, Infosys, TCS And Wipro announced its support for the NVIDIA AI Computing by HPE portfolio and HPE Private Cloud AI as part of its strategic AI solutions and services.
