At the HPE ProLiant Deep Dive Event during Tech Field Day, Gina Rosenthal and other participants explored HPE’s latest ProLiant server innovations and the surprising acceleration of quantum computing regulations from 2030 to 2027. This shift puts pressure on vendors to act fast, especially in federal sectors, but HPE appears ahead of the curve. Attendees highlighted the relevance of compact servers for small businesses and the importance of automation and infrastructure management, including tools like HPE GreenLake. The session also sparked a broader conversation on AI, with a push to focus on practical machine learning needs—not just GPU-heavy solutions—and the importance of supporting on-prem development for organizations of all sizes.
