The Scripting Toolkit (STK) for Windows and Linux provide flexible scripting to automate steps in HPE ProLiant server configurations to scale high volumes of server deployments rapidly and cut deployment time substantially. The STK includes a modular set of utilities and documentation that describe how to apply the scripting tools for an automated deployment process.

It delivers hands-off, unattended installation for high volume HPE ProLiant server deployments and is integrated with other management tools such as Integrated Lights Out (iLO), BIOS and is based on Intelligent Provisioning. Its "Rack and Go" approach frees up scarce IT resources, delivers consistent server configurations across multiple servers, and integrates into popular methods for operating system deployment. Past versions were based on SmartStart, and were known as the SmartStart Scripting Toolkit.

HPE Aruba Networking Fabric Composer is an intelligent, API-driven, software-defined orchestration solution that simplifies and accelerates network provisioning, security management and day-to-day operations across rack-scale compute and storage infrastructure.

Rapidly changing markets demand quick insights to drive innovation. AI is key, but its potential is hindered by data scattered across multiple data formats and systems. HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric Software addresses this challenge by unifying diverse data into a secure data lakehouse. The HPE solution federates access, management, and governance across data formats and locations, decreasing data silos and accelerating AI initiatives. By processing data where it resides, we reduce latency and complexity, empowering organizations to extract maximum value from their data.

HPE Intelligent Management Center (IMC) Software, with the optional HPE IMC Virtual Application Networking Fabric Manager Software, includes added functionality called HPE FlexFabric Network Analytics. When HPE FlexFabric Network Analytics is combined with the HPE FlexFabric 5940 or 5950 Switch it delivers real time visibility of microburst network congestion which negatively impacts overall network operations and performance.
Microbursts last only for sub seconds making its detection difficult by today’s network monitoring tools such as SNMP. HPE FlexFabric Network Analytics enables the network operator to pinpoint these microburst congestion points and their sources. This gives the network operator granular visibility into these spontaneous congestion points. With this information operators will be able to analyze in more detail their network configuration and make the necessary adjustments as needed for optimal network performance.
