HPE and Nvidia have joined forces to develop a portfolio of AI products, which the two companies say will enable enterprises to accelerate the adoption of generative AI.

Unveiled at the HPE Discover event in Las Vegas this week, the initial offering from the forthcoming portfolio is what the companies describe as a “first-of-its-kind turnkey, private-cloud AI solution,” dubbed the HPE Private Cloud AI.

According to a joint statement, the HPE Private Cloud AI integrates Nvidia’s AI computing, networking, and software offerings with HPE’s AI storage, compute, and GreenLake hybrid cloud solution. It provides support for inference, fine-tuning, and RAG AI workloads that utilize proprietary data, while allowing organizations to exercise the necessary control over data privacy, security, transparency, and governance requirements.

The cloud offering is powered by OpsRamp – HPE’s “network observability and AI infrastructure observability to operations copilot” – which is now underpinned by Nvidia’s accelerated computing platform.

HPE Private Cloud AI is available in four right-sized configurations to support a broad range of AI workloads and use cases and is expected to be made generally available this fall.

“Generative AI holds immense potential for enterprise transformation, but the complexities of fragmented AI technology contain too many risks and barriers that hamper large-scale enterprise adoption and can jeopardize a company’s most valuable asset, its proprietary data,” said HPE president and CEO Antonio Neri during his keynote speech.

Nvidia’s co-founder and CEO Jensen Huang, who joined Neri on stage at the event, added: “Never before have Nvidia and HPE integrated our technologies so deeply to equip enterprise clients and AI professionals with the most advanced computing infrastructure and services to expand the frontier of AI.”

HPE also announced it has added support for Nvidia’s latest GPUs and CPUs. Both the HPE Cray XD670 and the HPE ProLiant DL384 Gen12 server will soon support eight Nvidia H200 NVL Tensor Core GPUs, with the Gen12 server also to start offering support for the GH200 NVL2.

The company added its hardware will also be able to support the Nvidia GB200 NVL72/NVL2 and the incoming Blackwell, Rubin, and Vera architectures when they are made available.

The news came just hours after Nvidia became the world's most valuable company, with its market cap rising to $3.34 trillion at the end of trading on Tuesday.
