The HPE Virtualized Services Assurance Platform (VSAP) addresses the need for visibility and correlation between the networking requirements of virtual applications and workloads (the “overlay”) and the physical connectivity provided by the IP network infrastructure (“the underlay”). The IP infrastructure route and path analytics generated simplify the management of SDN overlay services. Providing proactive and real-time visualization, troubleshooting and analysis of underlay IP control plane protocol changes and their impact on SDN overlay service paths. Now network operators can limit the number of problem escalations while accelerating resolutions to service affecting problems. The HPE Virtualized Services Assurance Platform is tightly integrated with HPE Distributed Cloud Networking (DCN). As a result, SDN-based overlay services can be provided to facilitate network path based on the latest analytics information derived from the underlying IP network infrastructure.

Arista Extensible Operating System (EOS) is a fully programmable and highly modular, Linux-based network operation system that is core of Arista cloud networking solutions for enterprise data centers and cloud networks. Through its programmability, EOS enables a set of software applications that deliver workflow automation, high availability, unprecedented network visibility and analytics and rapid integration with a wide range of third-party applications for virtualization, management, automation and orchestration services.

The HPE Network Discovery Tool provides small and midsize businesses with fast visibility of HPE Networking and other devices on the network. This free, Windows-based tool makes it easier for organizations to complete device setup and simplify ongoing device management, reducing the need for paper-based systems.

HPE Virtualized Security Services is a software-defined security solution for data centers and wide area network (WAN) environments. When combined with the HPE Distributed Cloud Networking product it helps address protection, detection, and operational security challenges in cloud environments driven by emerging security threats and multi-tenancy. Delivering end-to-end (cloud, data center, and branch) software-defined network security, visibility, and an automation solution. HPE Virtualized Security Services extends HPE Distributed Cloud Networking, a software-defined networking (SDN) platform, with value-added security capabilities that provide contextual traffic visibility and security monitoring, as well as dynamic security automation for rapid incident response. Delivers features in addition to the HPE Distributed Cloud Networking capabilities to provide enterprise level security to micro-segmentation, policy automation, and policy enforcement.

Aruba Virtual Mobility Master Software is the next generation of master controller that can be either deployed as a virtual machine (VM) or installed on an x86-based hardware appliance. The Mobility Master provides a better user experience, flexible deployment models, simplified operations and enhanced performance.

Aruba Mobility Master is deployed as a virtual machine (VM) for more memory and compute power to address today’s technology needs for mobility and IoT. It provides automatic RF optimization for high density environments and enables hitless failover in an unlikely event of a controller outage.

The Aruba Meridian App Platform is a mobile-app software platform from Aruba, a Hewlett Packard Enterprise company, that allows public-facing enterprise venues – retailers, hotels, airports, hospitals, and convention centers – to create or improve mobile apps that engage visitors on their mobile devices.
Venues can leverage Meridian to deliver location relevant information such as mapping, turn-by-turn directions, venue-specific information, and proximity-based notifications to mobile-app users during their visits.

HPE Distributed Cloud Networking enables service providers and large organizations to manage a distributed, multi-data center environment in a simple, open and agile way using Software-defined Networking and network virtualization. With the underlay and overlay network fully integrated, you can lower TCO by combining intelligent workload management with policy automation. It accelerates the communication service providers' journey to Network Function Virtualization (NFV) by optimizing network resources, increasing agility and speeding time-to-market through dynamic, service-driven configuration.

The HPE IMC Business Service Performance (BSP) Software is an Intelligent Management Center (IMC) module, targeted at support of data centers and large campuses, or remote sites that rely on centralized services. IMC BSP Software creates a holistic service health score dashboard for activity, health, availability and other factors for each individual customer-defined service.

This score uses data from the IMC platform, and optionally from SHM, APM and NTA modules to reflect the status of the application, servers, VMs, and network hardware that make up the service, giving a overall service view.
