How can companies evolve with new technology? | #HPEDiscover

Companies are under pressure to innovate. With the explosion of cloud, DevOps, Software as a Service and other new technologies, businesses are jittery about being bested by more tech-savvy competitors. They want knowledgeable experts to take them through the evolution, and that is where HPE comes in, according to Seamus Dunne, VP of Cloud and Data Center Support Services at Hewlett Packard Enterprise Co. (HPE).

Dunne told John Furrier and Dave Vellante, cohosts of theCUBE, from the SiliconANGLE Media team, during HPE Discover 2015 in London that HPE has become more focused on becoming a “customer success organization.”

Dunne said the trick to transitioning to new infrastructure is to make the most of what you have already and to deploy new technology intelligently and step by step. “We help you get more out of that infrastructure that you have today, and we help you evolve to the next,” he stated.

Does composable mean faster?

Dunne said that HPE’s composable infrastructure manifests the agility and flexibility that customers universally are seeking. The sheer options that HPE’s partnering with vendors opens up to customers is, according to Dunne, the number one thing evolving companies need.

“Our ability to partner and work with other organizations — that’s part of our DNA,” he said. The question continues to be, “How can I do it faster?” he said, and the answer, according to him, is it has to be automated, which means infrastructure as code. Composability means you can abstract away complexity and deploy applications faster, he added.
