HP Delivers New Technology and Services Portfolio Designed for Growing Service Provider Market

PALO ALTO, CA — (Marketwired) — 03/10/15 — HP (NYSE: HPQ) today announced a new portfolio designed specifically for the needs of service providers to create differentiated services, increase speed and agility, and drive business growth.

According to IDC, a majority of organizations will stop managing their own infrastructure over the next five years. Instead, these organizations will make greater use of dedicated and shared cloud offerings in service provider data centers.(1) To capitalize on these changes, service providers — software-as-a-service, infrastructure-as-a-service, telco/communication service providers, managed hosters, and consumer service providers — need an efficient infrastructure that is highly scalable and supports business growth. They also need flexible business models that better align costs to revenue. Additionally, they need to be able to address customers– increasing expectations for service level agreements.

HP–s new workload-optimized solutions, flexible business models and partnerships help service providers launch differentiated services faster in the market and stay competitive.

“Service providers must adjust to meet ever-increasing customer demands for simplicity, security and availability — they can no longer compete on cost alone,” said Antonio Neri, Senior Vice President and General Manager, Enterprise Group, HP. “HP is delivering systems, built on open-design principles, combined with services and solutions that allow service providers to move fast, launch new services and grow their business in a sustainable way.”

The HP Altoline switches are loaded with Open Network Install Environment (ONIE) boot loader giving customers the option of using Linux network OS. The new HP Altoline switches are designed to provide service providers and web scale organizations more flexibility and control in tuning their networking infrastructure to meet the specific applications and business requirements.

These ready-to-run –as-a-service– solutions support infrastructure-as-a-service and managed cloud, web services and software-as-a-service, backup and data recovery, security, customer relationship management and business intelligence.

“The industries we serve — including regulated industries like financial services and life sciences — require secure collaboration solutions that make it safe and easy to share valuable information anywhere, on any device,” said Ron Hovsepian, Intralinks CEO. “HP–s leadership in cloud with HP Helion and service provider ready solutions gives us yet another strategic advantage in delivering world-class, secure content collaboration solutions to enterprises worldwide.”

Additionally, “pay-as-you-grow” model offers immediate access to storage, server and networking resources located on-site so service providers can scale quickly and pay only for the capacity used.
