HPE introduces cloud-based AI platform InfoSight

HPE InfoSightHewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) has announced an artificial intelligence (AI) recommendation engine designed to simplify and reduce the guesswork in managing infrastructure and improve application reliability. HPE InfoSight is a predictive analytics platform that brings software-defined intelligence to the data centre with the ability to predict and prevent infrastructure problems before they happen.  Leveraging advanced machine learning, the new capabilities for HPE InfoSight pave the path toward an autonomous data centre, the firm said. HPE also announced the first release of HPE InfoSight for HPE 3PAR, setting in motion the promise to extend machine learning across the HPE storage and server portfolio.

“HPE InfoSight marks the first time a major storage vendor has been able to predict issues and proactively resolve them before a customer is even aware of the problem,” said Bill Philbin, senior vice president, HPE GM Storage. “As applications increasingly drive today’s businesses, we need to help customers move toward a self-managing IT model. The platform enables IT to spend more time on projects that add value to the business rather than on troubleshooting issues.”

The platform lays the groundwork for an autonomous data centre with the new AI recommendation engine. Building on its predictive capabilities, it now preemptively advises IT how to avoid issues, improve performance, and optimise available resources.

This first release of HPE InfoSight for 3PAR makes available cross-stack analytics. For 3PAR customers running the latest release of the 3PAR operating system, the platform will also provide IT the ability to resolve performance problems and pinpoint the root cause of issues between the storage and host virtual machines (VMs). It also provides visibility to locate “noisy neighbor” VMs.

It will also have global visibility. Through a new cloud portal that combines the platform and HPE StoreFront Remote, all current 3PAR customers with systems that are remotely connected will see detailed performance trending, capacity predictions, health checks and best practice information across all of their 3PAR arrays.

The first release will also be equipped with a foundation to enable predictive support. Analytics and automation infrastructure are now in place that in the future will be used to detect anomalies, predict complex problems, and route cases directly to Level 3 support.

HPE InfoSight with the new AI recommendation engine will be available January 2018 to all HPE Nimble Storage customers with an active support contract at no additional charge. HPE InfoSight for 3PAR will also be available January 2018 to all 3PAR customers with an active support contract at no additional charge.
