HPE has taken aim at data sovereignty concerns with two new products that look to help businesses make use of cloud-style services in an air-gapped environment.
HPE Private Cloud Enterprise Disconnected and HPE Alletra Storage MP Disconnected were announced at HPE Discover Barcelona 2024 during CEO Antonio Neri’s keynote address. They are intended to address the needs of regulated industries and other organizations that deal with highly sensitive data.
While both of these ‘Disconnected’ products are available to buy direct or through partners, the channel has a special role to play when it comes to sovereign clouds. Organizations wanting to roll out this kind of project will need to go via authorized HPE Partner Ready Vantage partners.
“Data sovereignty is no longer just a regulatory requirement. It is a business imperative for regulated industries such as government, healthcare providers and defense entities,” said Neri during his keynote.
Starting in Europe, Neri said, “partners can create sovereign cloud capabilities that address local, regional and industry specific regulations. These partners can earn the HPE sovereignty competency, which demonstrates expertise using HPE GreenLake cloud to provide secure private clouds within hosted environments or customer data centers”.
