Hewlett Packard Enterprise has announced that its HPE Private Cloud AI solution is now available for order and has introduced new solution accelerators designed to automate and optimize artificial intelligence (AI) applications. Co-developed with NVIDIA, HPE Private Cloud AI offers a turnkey, cloud-based platform that enables businesses of all sizes to easily build and deploy generative AI (GenAI) applications. This solution is part of the NVIDIA AI Computing by HPE portfolio. The newly launched solution accelerators allow enterprises to deploy virtual assistants with a single click and operationalize them within seconds, greatly simplifying the AI deployment process.

“Businesses are deploying GenAI in an environment where they are simultaneously under pressure to begin quickly and show real value,” said Fidelma Russo, Executive Vice President and General Manager of Hybrid Cloud, and CTO at HPE. “However, implementing AI applications requires organizations to string together various models, datasets, tools, and other resources. Solution accelerators are a key differentiator within HPE Private Cloud AI, simplifying a project that could take months to deploy and consolidating that timeline down to a single moment for the enterprise.”

The first available solution accelerator is a GenAI virtual assistant that helps developers quickly build interactive chatbots capable of answering questions in natural language, using an organization’s private data and open-source large language models (LLMs). These AI applications can be customized for a range of use cases, such as tech support, sales quote generation, marketing content creation, and more. Future updates will expand the capabilities of the virtual assistant to include voice, image processing, and multi-agent support for more advanced content generation and multitasking.

Upcoming solution accelerators will cater to specific AI applications across vertical industries such as financial services, healthcare, retail, energy, and the public sector. Some of these will be based on NVIDIA NIM Agent Blueprints, which are reference AI use cases that enterprises can refine continually with data and feedback.

“Enterprises are looking for accelerated, customized AI tools to meet the needs of their company-specific use cases,” said Justin Boitano, Vice President of Enterprise AI Software Products at NVIDIA. “NVIDIA NIM Agent Blueprints allow AI applications developed with HPE Private Cloud AI to be refined using human feedback, improving models in a continuous learning cycle.”

The solution accelerators are customizable, modular, low-code or no-code applications leveraging NVIDIA NIM microservices. They are designed to shorten the time-to-value for businesses by simplifying AI deployment, which traditionally involves navigating complex processes such as integrating multiple microservices, data sources, AI models, and other IT resources. These accelerators run on HPE Private Cloud AI managed through HPE GreenLake, ensuring comprehensive security with enterprise guardrails and data isolation.

To further enhance customer experience and accelerate time-to-value for AI use cases, HPE has launched the Unleash AI partner program. Part of the HPE Partner Ready Technology Partner Program, Unleash AI aims to build a robust ecosystem of software providers, system integrators, and service providers for comprehensive AI solutions. Partner solutions, including those based on NVIDIA NIM Agent Blueprints, will be pre-validated to run seamlessly on HPE Private Cloud AI, leveraging HPE’s extensive market reach.
