Take Control of Your Network—On Your Terms

Three different types of switches are sitting next to each other on a white background.

Now with New Deployment Options for HPE Aruba Networking Central


Today’s networks need to do more than connect devices. They need to protect data, support real-time apps, and adapt quickly to the demands of your business. That’s why we’ve expanded HPE Aruba Networking Central—our AI-powered network management platform—with more ways to deploy, so you can run your network your way, without compromise.


HPE has upgraded the "engine" behind AI Search using proprietary trained LLMs, purpose-built for networking. These models better understand the intent behind your questions, even if you use technical jargon. This provides:


  • More accurate responses
  • Real-time suggestions and autocomplete
  • Search-driven navigation that guides you directly to what you need in the interface
A computer screen shows a map of the world and a search bar.

Organisations today face new demands around data sovereignty, compliance, and network intelligence—especially in sectors like government, healthcare, and global enterprise. HPE’s latest expansion of Aruba Networking Central ensures you stay compliant, secure, and in control—without compromising agility or performance.


One Powerful Platform. Four Ways to Deploy.


We know every organisation has different needs—whether it’s strict data regulations, operational control, or simply a need to scale fast. Now you can choose the deployment that works best for you:


1. Cloud-Delivered SaaS


Fast, flexible, and always up to date. Get instant access to HPE’s global cloud footprint with built-in automation, updates, and AIOps.


Great for: Businesses that want to simplify management and scale without infrastructure overhead.


2. Virtual Private Cloud (VPC)


Enjoy the agility of cloud with the added control of a dedicated environment. Perfect for organisations with data sovereignty, regulatory, or privacy requirements.


Great for: Industries like finance, healthcare, and education—where control and compliance matter.


3. On-Premises


Run HPE Aruba Networking Central in a fully air-gapped, offline environment—ideal for sensitive workloads or strict government standards. Now includes FIPS 140-2 certified hardware for enhanced security.


Great for: Government and defense, or any organisation that needs total isolation and control.


4. Network as a Service (NaaS)


Let us handle everything—from setup to ongoing operations—so you can focus on outcomes, not infrastructure.


Great for: Organisations looking for predictable costs, fewer operational burdens, and full-stack service.


HPE is the only network provider to offer this level of deployment flexibility—cloud-native AI operations wherever and however you need them.

Built-In AI That Helps You Work Smarter


HPE's platform does more than manage your network—it helps you improve it.


  • AI-powered network assistants constantly scan for performance issues, configuration errors, and potential security gaps.


  • These always-on tools don’t just detect problems—they recommend ways to fix them fast.


  • The platform leverages insights from a massive data lake of over 2 billion devices to help you make smarter decisions with less guesswork.


Deep Visibility, Down to the Details


See exactly what’s happening—across your network, across vendors, and across critical apps.


  • Native Microsoft Teams integration improves voice and video call quality by identifying and fixing issues in real time.


  • A new OpsRamp-powered subscription adds visibility into third-party devices like Cisco, Arista, and Juniper.


  • Full-stack observability means you can troubleshoot, analyse, and optimise from end to end.


With one of the industry’s largest data lakes and AI at its core, HPE Aruba Networking Central acts as your network’s smartest source of truth.

Digital content creation is happening faster than ever, that includes having so much image content or digital creations and staying organised is so important to not be overwhelmed and yet product high quality work. Whether you're a photographer, designer, illustrator, or video editor, managing thousands of files efficiently can be a daunting task. Adobe Bridge —a powerful, often underrated digital asset management tool that simplifies your workflow, enhances productivity, and integrates seamlessly with other Adobe Creative Cloud applications is essential to all users in the digital age (in my opinion). Adobe Bridge acts as a central hub for organising , previewing , and batch-processing media files . But beyond just being a file browser, it offers tagging , metadata editing , batch renaming , and automation features that significantly improve file management. If you've been juggling files manually, it’s time to discover why Adobe Bridge should be an essential part of your creative workflow.

A Virtual Private Network (VPN) is a technology that enhances online privacy and security by encrypting internet traffic and routing it through a secure server. This process masks the user's IP address, making it appear as though they are accessing the internet from a different location. VPNs are commonly used for: Privacy Protection: Encrypting online activity to prevent tracking by third parties, including Internet Service Providers (ISPs) and hackers. For example, a journalist working in a country with internet censorship uses a VPN to browse securely and protect their sources. Bypassing Geo-Restrictions: Accessing content that may be blocked or restricted based on the user's location. For example, an Australian user wants to watch U.S. Netflix content and uses a VPN to appear as if they are in the U.S. Securing Public Wi-Fi: Protecting data from potential cyber threats when using unsecured public networks. For example, a remote worker connects to a coffee shop Wi-Fi and uses a VPN to protect sensitive company data from potential cyber threats. Business Use: Enabling employees to securely access corporate networks from remote locations. For example, financial institution mandates VPN usage to protect sensitive client data from unauthorised access.
