ABSTRACT

Datacentrix and HPE Aruba Networking simplify IT operations with AIOps-driven cloud management and new network-as-a-service capabilities available on HPE GreenLake:

1. The HPE Aruba Networking Central cloud network management platform has been re-designed to simplify operations, reduce manual tasks and improve productivity by leveraging artificial intelligence for IT operations (AIOps).

2. HPE Aruba Networking’s Agile NaaS framework is designed to make on-demand networking easier for end-user customers to consume. New service pack capabilities added to HPE GreenLake give customers the flexibility to bundle the services they specifically need with a monthly NaaS subscription.

The new features of the next generation of HPE Aruba Networking Central include operator-centric design, ‘point-in-time’ view of the network; multi-layer views to transform visualisation of complex networks; intelligent assurance indicators for device health and client experience; AI-powered full-stack insights for enhanced root cause analysis (RCA), impact assessment, and precise recommendations; and device-agnostic workflows with 100% API support to automate network configurations at scale.

The discussion will look at running edge-to-cloud infrastructure as an end-to-end service:

–  Combatting IT skills shortages, data complexity and fragmented network operations requirements;

–  Automation of network management operations;

–  Network as a Service; and

–  AIOps for the delivery of network as a service
