Emerging Technology

What’s common between the Enterprise Edge, Media Edge and Industrial IoT Edge?

They all run on the HPE industry-leading portfolio of Converged Edge Systems. The HPE Edgeline EL4000 Converged Edge System, coupled with Citrix technology, is a perfect enterprise or SMB solution for delivering simple, smart, dense and secure desktops or applications, from anywhere - to any device. Multiple System Operators (MSO) and Over-The-Top (OTT) providers love the ability to cache, rapidly process and easily manage video, audio and other rich media in one converged system. Doing all of this at the edge means huge networking cost savings and a superior consumer viewing experience. Rugged HPE Edgeline systems integrated with precision data capture/control, enterprise grade security, systems management and blazingly fast storage are also the ideal choice for harsh Industrial IoT environments. Break cloud vendor lock-in and enable true edge analytics through three points of convergence in one box.

Is your company struggling with moving analytics to the edge of your network? The HPE GL10 IoT Gateway is an entry-level rugged compute solution designed to operate in industrial environments such as manufacturing, smart cities, or oil and gas. This gateway comes optimally configured with CPU, memory, connectivity and an expansive I/O selection addressing a host of Internet of Things (loT) needs. This enables companies to process data streams real-time before the data is stored for additional analysis. The HPE Edgeline product families are complete solutions out-of-the-box that are easy-to-use and quick-to-deploy. A universal mounting kit as well as a universal power kit are included. The HPE GL10 IoT Gateway brings computing and analytics closer to the edge of the network helping customers to quickly analyze data being generated in real-time enabling them to act fast reducing the chance of a lost opportunity – or a missed red flag.

Are you struggling to extract business value from the massive amounts of data produced in a plant, branch office, retail outlet, or Internet-of-Things (IoT) edge? Is business agility affected because it’s too slow, expensive or risky to send information from the edge to a data center or cloud for later analysis?

The HPE Edgeline EL1000 Converged Edge System is an industry first, integrating unprecedented levels of edge compute, precision data capture and control, data center-class security, device and systems management, as well as large and blazingly fast storage capabilities – in one converged box. This rugged and compact system is designed to perform in harsher edge environments with higher shock, vibration and temperature levels. It is perfect for expanding your IoT infrastructure beyond traditional data center confines and can also help break cloud vendor lock-in to enable true edge computing.

This is achieved through three points of convergence in one box.
