Unified Hybrid Cloud and Virtualization Management
Manage virtualized, private cloud, and hybrid cloud infrastructure through a single control plane that simplifies provisioning, lifecycle management, and policy enforcement across diverse environments, reducing operational complexity and improving infrastructure consistency.
Support both traditional virtualization and modern cloud operating models with unified management for HVM hypervisor and VMware® environments, plus expansion paths into additional hypervisors, Kubernetes, bare metal, and public cloud infrastructure through HPE Morpheus Software – enterprise.
Provide IT teams with a centralized interface for workload visibility, provisioning, governance, and operational automation, enabling consistent deployment and management practices from small clusters to enterprise-scale hybrid estates.
Enable organizations to modernize infrastructure at their own pace by managing existing VMware® estates alongside newer HPE virtualization platforms within one software-defined operational framework.
End-to-End Lifecycle Management: Automate and streamline Day 0, Day 1, and Day 2 operations, providing continuous management from initial resource deployment and configuration to ongoing maintenance, scaling, and eventual decommissioning of infrastructure assets.
Enterprise Automation, Self-Service Provisioning, and Operational Orchestration
Self-Service Provisioning: Empower developers and IT teams with an intuitive self-service portal to quickly provision virtual machines, containerized workloads, and complex applications, drastically reducing deployment times while maintaining strict IT oversight and control
Advanced Workflow Automation: Eliminate manual, error-prone tasks by building and executing sophisticated automation workflows that string together complex deployment phases, custom scripts, and third-party API calls across multiple infrastructure endpoints.
Integrate automation into day-0, day-1, and day-2 operations, enabling lifecycle workflows such as provisioning, scaling, patching, migration, and retirement to be executed consistently through software-defined processes.
Support extensible automation through APIs, scripting, and ecosystem integrations, allowing infrastructure teams to connect provisioning and operational workflows with broader IT service management and DevOps toolchains.
Reduce operational overhead while improving service agility by replacing fragmented management tasks with orchestrated workflows that span compute, storage, networking, and workload operations.
Runtimes and Ecosystem
HKS (HPE's Kubernetes service): Simplify container orchestration with built-in support for deploying, managing, and scaling production-ready Kubernetes clusters, providing developers with a streamlined, CNCF-compliant environment for cloud-native applications.
Software-Defined Networking (SDN): Enhance network agility and security with the SDN Plugin, automating the provisioning of micro-segmentation, load balancers, and complex routing across your hybrid infrastructure.
HVM: Leverage the powerful embedded HVM hypervisor capabilities to run high-performance virtualized workloads efficiently, providing a cost-effective, tightly integrated virtualization layer directly managed within the HPE Morpheus Software ecosystem.
Extensible Plugin Architecture: Highly adaptable plugin framework allows organizations to develop custom extensions, enabling seamless integration with proprietary internal systems, niche third-party tools, and specialized hardware not natively supported out of the box.
Comprehensive Third-Party Integrations: Connect easily to an expansive ecosystem of over 100 out-of-the-box integrations, spanning IPAM, DNS, ITSM, configuration management, and identity providers, creating a truly unified and automated IT operations toolchain.
Governance, Security, and Cost Optimization Across IT Operations
Apply governance consistently through role-based access, policy controls, approvals, and operational boundaries that help IT standardize service delivery while maintaining security, accountability, and compliance alignment.
Increase operational transparency through centralized visibility into workloads, infrastructure usage, and resource allocation, helping teams improve planning, utilization, and infrastructure efficiency across environments.
Reduce platform lock-in by giving organizations broader infrastructure choice, allowing workloads to be placed on the most appropriate operational platform based on performance, policy, and cost objectives.
Improve operational discipline with software-defined controls that standardize deployment, automate governance checkpoints, and create repeatable infrastructure processes across teams and business units.
Support infrastructure modernization with an architecture designed to simplify management, improve agility, and optimize long-term operational economics for virtualized and hybrid cloud environments.
