Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) has launched a UK-specific instance of HPE Aruba Networking Central, giving local businesses access to advanced network management capabilities. Designed to address strong customer demand for greater sovereignty, the UK instance means that in addition to user and application data, the telemetry data underpinning operations and optimisation of networks can be stored in the UK as well.
The solution provides a single, unified platform with a wide set of advanced network management capabilities for wired and wireless networks, with the option to host telemetry data on-premises or in a public or private cloud.
The UK has a strong push for data sovereignty, with businesses wanting to keep their data in the UK and local to their businesses, to meet regulatory and privacy requirements. The UK instance of HPE Aruba Networking Central provides them with critical flexibility and the option to host telemetry data on UK soil as well, said Mark Weeks, director, HPE Networking, UK & Ireland.
