Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) has introduced a cutting-edge unified data layer for AI at NVIDIA GTC 2025, strengthening its collaboration with NVIDIA.
The innovation represents a major advancement in enterprise data management, enabling faster insights through seamless access, integrated intelligence, and secure governance of multi-vendor, multicloud data via HPE GreenLake cloud.
HPE’s latest breakthrough brings structured and unstructured data together in a unified layer, making it easier and faster to fuel AI-driven applications.
With its high-performance data fabric and advanced intelligence, the technology streamlines the entire AI data lifecycle.
Paired with NVIDIA’s cutting-edge AI Data Platform, it ensures businesses have AI-ready data at their fingertips—ready to power models, applications, and intelligent agents with greater efficiency and precision.
According to Fidelma Russo, Executive Vice President and General Manager, Hybrid Cloud and CTO at HPE, to thrive in the agentic AI era, data management must undergo a fundamental shift.
“With our unified data layer, intelligent storage, and HPE Private Cloud AI, enterprises can run AI at scale—wherever their data lives,”
“Our approach for harnessing highly distributed, hybrid data in collaboration with NVIDIA gives organisations a competitive edge, while accelerating time to value.” said Russo.
Justin Boitano, Vice President, Enterprise Software at NVIDIA, echoed this sentiment, stating, “NVIDIA and HPE are working together to pave the way for AI agents to connect to business knowledge through high-performance intelligent data infrastructure.
“The AI data platforms we’re building together will enable enterprises to leverage their data during inference to power AI reasoning that delivers insights and drives action.” he said.
HPE and NVIDIA are teaming up to tackle one of the biggest challenges in enterprise AI—scattered, disconnected data that slows down insights.
By combining HPE’s unified data layer with the NVIDIA AI Data Platform, they’re creating a seamless data pipeline that transforms raw information—from edge to cloud—into actionable intelligence.
A key part of this innovation is the HPE Alletra Storage MP X10000, which accelerates data movement with built-in intelligence.
Meanwhile, the HPE Alletra Storage MP B10000 brings together unified block and file storage, cloud-based storage on Microsoft Azure, and advanced ransomware protection.
On top of that, HPE GreenLake for File Storage is now officially validated for enterprise AI Factories through the new NVIDIA-Certified Storage Program.
This intelligent, unified data layer ensures AI models get a steady flow of optimized, high-quality data—whether across HPE GreenLake or multivendor, multicloud environments—so businesses can drive AI-powered decisions with speed and accuracy.
“The VodafoneZiggo vision is to transform into an autonomous network driven by data and AI, with a Network Data Hub (NDH) for Assurance Data,” said Jannie Minnema, Head of Operational Support Systems Assurance and Tools at VodafoneZiggo.
“The HPE Data Fabric is the foundation of our NDH, enabling our journey towards secure and seamless connectivity. HPE Data Fabric supports us to deliver data-as-a-service with data unification, governance, intelligence, orchestration, and transformation.” Minnema, said
As businesses grapple with the growing challenges of AI and data management, the partnership between HPE and NVIDIA marks a major leap forward.
By combining their expertise, they’re making it easier for enterprises to tap into AI’s full potential—turning complex data into valuable insights and game-changing innovation.
