Hewlett Packard Enterprise unveils new IoT and networking solutions

Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) recently announced new Internet of Things (IoT) systems and networking solutions that enable customers to more efficiently collect, process and analyze IoT data. The new HPE Edgeline IoT Systems are the result of a joint partnership between HPE and Intel to help deliver open solutions for the IoT market. The HPE Edgeline IoT Systems 10 and 20 sit at the network edge, enabling customers to securely aggregate and analyze data in real-time and control devices and things. Available in ruggedized, mobile and rack-mounted versions, the systems are suitable for a wide spectrum of industrial, logistics, transportation, healthcare, government and retail applications and have been certified to work with Microsoft Azure IoT services.

The first new HPE Edgeline IoT Systems are available now and unify IoT data access with device management, configuration and control. Products include HPE IoT System EL10 and HPE IoT System EL20. Future members of the Edgeline family will incorporate HPE’s Moonshot system architecture. Moonshot technology offers powerful computing capability while using significantly less energy and space than typical servers, which are important advantages for IoT. Aruba, a Hewlett Packard Enterprise company, is announcing a cloud-based beacon management solution for multivendor Wi-Fi networks. The new, enterprise-grade IoT Aruba Sensor is the next wave of the Aruba Mobile Engagement solutions. The sensors combine a small Wi-Fi client and BLE radio, which enables organizations to remotely monitor and manage Aruba Beacons across existing multivendor Wi-Fi networks from a central location using the Meridian cloud service. The new Sensors are designed to allow any company to introduce location-based services, using Aruba Beacons and Sensors at the edge, and the Meridian cloud service to interface with business and analytics applications.
