HPE’s Goal is to Make Hybrid IT Simple for Customers

Businesses today live in a Hybrid IT world. Achieving business outcomes requires putting each workload in the appropriate environment, whether it’s in an on-premises data center, in a private cloud, on public clouds or offered as a SaaS application. And, this environment is different for every organization, dynamically changing with their business needs and workload requirements. We believe most enterprises will operate in this Hybrid IT environment for the foreseeable future.

HPE Pointnext is an innovative IT services organization built to make Hybrid IT simple and power the Intelligent Edge. One of our core capabilities is helping customers evaluate their IT strategy, determine the right environment for each workload and then execute their transition to a cloud environment (or multiple clouds), an on-premises data center, or more likely, a mix of the two.

CTP Strengthens HPE’s Hybrid IT Capabilities by Extending its Cloud Consulting Expertise

To further strengthen our consulting capabilities, today we are announcing our intent to acquire Cloud Technology Partners (CTP), a born-in- the-cloud services company with strong enterprise experience and DNA. Put simply, CTP helps its enterprise clients:

  • Move to the cloud – CTP helps sophisticated IT organizations move to the cloud by helping them determine which applications are optimal for both public and private clouds, executing the migrations, while helping them transform their organizations for the future.
  • Innovate on the cloud – CTP helps its clients build new and disruptive solutions using key technologies like IoT, Big Data and Machine Learning.
  • Operate the cloud – With its Managed Cloud Controls (suite of next generation managed services), CTP helps its clients achieve governance, risk and regulatory compliance on day 1 while also automating the reconciliation of actual cloud spend back to the projected TCO savings in the original business case and optimize spend.
