Bitcoin ticks up above $60k, but heads for quarterly loss as ETF outflows persist
Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) announced a set of new products and capabilities for its AI Factory with NVIDIA at the HPE Discover Las Vegas 2026 conference, targeting enterprise deployments of agentic AI with a focus on security, governance, and scale.
HPE Private Cloud AI, a turnkey AI solution co-engineered with NVIDIA, will add support for the NVIDIA Agent Toolkit, which includes NVIDIA Nemotron open models, NVIDIA NemoClaw, and the NVIDIA OpenShell secure runtime. The toolkit is designed to allow enterprises to monitor agent behavior, enforce policies, and manage deployment risk. HPE Private Cloud AI will also incorporate the HPE ProLiant Compute DL394 Gen12 server powered by the NVIDIA Vera CPU, intended for agentic AI workloads and high-performance data processing.
On the storage side, HPE says its Alletra Storage MP X10000 can reduce token response times by up to 20 times, based on benchmark testing using an HPE ProLiant Compute DL380a Gen12 server with eight NVIDIA H200 NVL GPUs running the NVIDIA Nemotron 70B model. Separately, HPE cited internal data showing up to 20% improvement in token throughput on its Private Cloud AI system.
HPE is also integrating NVIDIA Confidential Computing into the HPE AI Factory through HPE Services, providing cryptographic attestation and encryption during model execution for on-premises and sovereign deployments. The HPE AI Factory at-scale will additionally support NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Server Edition GPUs, NVIDIA Spectrum-X Ethernet, NVIDIA BlueField-3 DPUs, and NVIDIA ConnectX-8 SuperNICs, which are available now.
New HPE Private Cloud AI features are scheduled for July 2026. HPE Data Fabric Software availability is planned for October 2026. Additional capabilities, including agentic observability, HPE Alletra Storage MP X10000, and NVIDIA Agent Toolkit support, are targeted for Q4 2026. NVIDIA Confidential Computing for the HPE AI Factory is also expected in Q4 2026. HPE Private Cloud AI with the HPE ProLiant Compute DL394 Gen12 is slated for 2026.
