  • HPE is shaping the future of enterprise data with a unified data platform built on high-performance, scalable storage, integrated cyber resilience, and enterprise-class data protection

HOUSTON, August 21, 2026--HPE (NYSE: HPE) today announced it was named a Leader for the 2026 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ and recognized in the Critical Capabilities for Enterprise Storage Platforms (ESP).

"We believe this recognition by Gartner reflects both the consistency of our execution and the strength of our vision for enterprise data. As AI reshapes the enterprise, customers need more than a place to store data," said Jim O'Dorisio, SVP & GM for storage, HPE. "With our intelligent data fabric, disaggregated HPE Alletra Storage MP architecture, and agentic AI-driven cloud operations, HPE is transforming how enterprises manage, govern, protect, and activate data across hybrid environments, creating the intelligent foundation customers need to accelerate AI and time to value."

HPE delivers innovation across storage and data protection portfolio

Consistent with this strategy, HPE is shaping the future of enterprise data with a unified data platform built on high-performance, scalable storage, AI-driven cloud management, integrated cyber resilience, enterprise-class data protection, and industry-leading availability and data services backed by outcome-focused service-level agreements, all delivered through GreenLake. Built on a disaggregated architecture, HPE Alletra Storage MP delivers block, file, and object storage in a unified platform that scales efficiently as capacity and performance needs grow. Recent innovations include:

  • Intelligent, AI-ready storage for unstructured data and AI: HPE Alletra Storage MP X10000 combines object storage with native file services, doubled performance and scale, in-line metadata enrichment and RDMA acceleration for AI inference workloads, making the X10000 an intelligent platform for AI pipelines, analytics, active data lakes, and data protection. Also, earlier this year, the X10000 became the first object storage platform to achieve NVIDIA-Certified Storage validation. HPE Data Fabric Software extends this with a unified data layer for edge-to-cloud data access, governance, and orchestration.

  • Superior flexibility and economics with unified block and file storage: HPE Alletra Storage MP B10000 is the industry's first disaggregated, scale-out unified block and file storage platform on a single operating system and architecture. It now scales non-disruptively from two to six controller nodes, with the flexibility to add one node at a time, delivering up to 50 percent higher performance with built-in dual-node fault tolerance. Unlike architectures that require disruptive upgrades to grow, customers expand performance and capacity independently, without downtime or data loss.
