As we are closing in for Gitex 2023, we have a conversation with Jacob Chacko – Regional Director – Middle East, Saudi & South Africa, HPE Aruba Networking, about their preparedness. Excerpt
How are you present in GITEX 2023?
HPE is committed to making its participation at GITEX 2023 a success, as we believe it is a valuable platform to connect with customers and partners and to demonstrate our latest products, solutions and services. HPE is getting ready to showcase its wide range of AI powered solutions, including machine learning (ML), high-performance computing (HPC), and unified analytics. Given that this year’s GITEX theme is all about AI, and considering AI’s practical applications spanning various industries, it provides HPE with an opportunity to delve more deeply into the realm of AI-powered technology.
Visitors will also learn about the latest developments from HPE GreenLake, HPE’s portfolio of hybrid cloud and as-a-service solutions platform. Additionally, they can find out more about possible IT strategies and solutions to address environmental challenges.
For HPE Aruba Networking in particular the focus for GITEX 2023 remains on highlighting business outcomes at the ‘Edge’. The company has an ongoing track record of delivering superior customer experiences for some of the region’s most advanced hospitality providers, busiest airports, OT-heavy manufacturers, student focused universities, digital stores, compliance driven banks and smart cities. All of this is backed by an AI-native cloud-driven orchestration and management system.
From a networking standpoint, HPE Aruba Networking will highlight enhanced network transformation, encompassing robust connectivity layers for WLAN and 5G, programmable data centers, and Security-as-a-Service alongside Secure Access Service Edge (SASE). Visitors will have a chance to test the latest Secure Service Edge (SSE), Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) capabilities and unified SASE offerings for the future enterprise.
