At HPE, we're continually innovating to stay ahead in an ever-evolving technological landscape. Our recent acquisitions and investments reflect our commitment to driving forward-thinking solutions that empower enterprises to thrive in the digital age.
Acquisitions Fueling Growth
Our recent acquisitions have accelerated our strategic initiatives as well as enhanced our competitive positioning in the market. Our acquisition of Axis, a leader in network edge security, set the stage for revolutionizing edge-to-cloud connectivity. By integrating their solutions with Aruba, we're poised to offer comprehensive Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) solutions, ensuring the security of critical SaaS applications and IoT devices across distributed locations.
In addition, our acquisitions of Athonet, Pachyderm, and OpsRamp underscore our commitment to meeting the diverse needs of modern enterprises. Athonet's expertise in private cellular technology enhances our ability to provide secure connectivity solutions. By acquiring Pachyderm, we deepened our AI-at-scale capabilities and the OpsRamp acquisition bolstered our leadership in hybrid cloud solutions and IT Operations Management, amplifying our portfolio to empower enterprises with cutting-edge technologies tailored to their evolving requirements. We expect our acquisition of Juniper Networks to redefine the networking market dynamics and propel our hybrid cloud and AI strategy forward.
Investments in Innovation
Hewlett Packard Pathfinder, HPE’s corporate investment arm, is making strategic investments aligned with corporate strategy in key sectors such as AI, Sustainability, Observability, and Data Services. Notably, two of the companies acquired by HPE last year were Pathfinder investments: Pachyderm and OpsRamp.
We have expanded our portfolio with promising startups reinforcing our commitment to driving growth and innovation to meet the needs of our customers. Our investment in API Protection leader Cequence Security underlined HPE’s commitment to enhance security solutions, especially in countering data breaches and API attacks. We strengthened the ongoing partnership with AI startup Aleph Alpha by participating in their Series B funding round. Additionally, investments in companies Arcion (acquired by Databricks) and Rockset highlighted our recognition of the growing demand for real-time analytics workloads and of the importance of real-time data in driving technological innovation, particularly in modern AI applications, respectively. Finally, our investment in Greenly underscores HPE’s commitment to sustainability and addressing environmental challenges.
Empowering enterprises through portfolio development
At HPE, portfolio development is not just about expanding our offerings; it's about curating a collection of technologies and solutions that empower our customers to thrive in an ever-evolving digital landscape. Our diverse range of products and services, spanning from edge to cloud, reflects our commitment to providing comprehensive solutions that drive innovation, efficiency, and growth.
An example of how our portfolio remains relevant and impactful includes Cohesity’s collaborative efforts with HPE in redefining data protection strategies and minimizing attack surfaces. This collaboration emphasizes the importance of a proactive mindset in mitigating cyber threats, particularly the ever-present risk of ransomware.
Through such strategic partnerships and advancements, HPE continues to bolster its portfolio, offering innovative solutions that address the evolving needs of enterprises in an increasingly digitized world.
