HPE is driving the Juniper Mist Marvis AI engine throughout all the HPE infrastructure layers along with making security 'an essential built-in component' of any HPE networking solution, according to Rami Rahim.

HPE announced it has outfitted its HPE ProLiant Compute DL394 Gen12 server with the Vera CPU—which is designed for agentic computing—to power HPE Private Cloud AI.

HPE CEO Antonio Neri told thousands of HPE partners and customers in his HPE Discover keynote address that architecting for AI starts with the self-driving network.

HPE Vice President of Products and Solutions Marketing for Networking Jeff Aaron said HPE is the only vendor that actually has the ability to “proactively detect” network problems and fix them without human intervention.

HPE is, in fact, driving the Juniper Mist Marvis AI engine throughout all the HPE infrastructure layers along with making security “an essential built-in component” of any HPE networking solution, said Rahim.

HPE CEO Antonio Neri said there is a “huge benefit” for partners to get back in the virtualization game with HPE Morpheus VM Essentials to displace VMware by Broadcom.

‘If you are a partner, the opportunity there for you is to land Morpheus and then sell your migration services,' said Neri in an interview at HPE Discover 2026. ‘And then when you go to VM Essentials, including containers and runtime for virtualization, you reduce up to 90 percent of your cost because in addition to the fact that we charge less, the commercial [pricing] model goes from cores to per socket.'

HPE Chief Sales Officer Phil Mottram is adding more sales reps and sales leadership in North America to help partners drive sales growth in 5,000 underpenetrated enterprise midmarket accounts.

‘What this means is we recognize there is an opportunity in North America specifically, and we're making investments with real dollars with people to capture that opportunity,' said Jenson.
