HPE Sets Gen12 Proliant Servers Loose On AI And The Edge
The Next Platform, Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Hewlett Packard Enterprise last summer introduced the first of its Gen12 ProLiant systems, packed with Nvidia's latest GPU accelerators and aimed squarely at the rapidly expanding AI space that in less than two years went from prompt-and-respond chatbots to AI agents that can reason, plan, and collaborate on their own.
Now come the rest of the Gen12 server family, powered by Intel's 'Granite Rapids' Xeon 6 processors and built to address a broader range of uses cases enterprises are dealing with. AI is certainly one of them, but organizations also are seeing more data storage and processing pushing out to the edge, which is becoming a central focus of enterprise compute and a challenge in areas from visibility to security to efficiency.
