HPE News from NVIDIA GTC DC 2025

At AI Field Day 7, HPE presented its latest AI developments announced during NVIDIA’s GTC DC 2025, with a strong focus on its collaborative initiatives to simplify and operationalize AI workloads. Robin Braun and Luke Norris highlighted the challenges organizations face in deploying AI applications, particularly the difficulty of moving from pilot projects to full-scale production. HPE emphasized its partnership model, notably with Kamiwaza, to address this issue by integrating lifecycle management and streamlined AI operations, making it simpler for enterprises and government entities to maintain and update AI deployments.

A major highlight of the presentation was HPE’s AI stack tailored for various deployment scales, including private cloud environments and air-gapped setups suitable for sensitive sectors like public safety. Braun detailed advancements in scaling AI, such as leveraging RTX 6000 Pro GPUs and introducing pre-integrated, lifecycle-managed AI stacks that can function in isolated networks. These stacks are also being tied into HPE’s digital concierge services and AMP offerings, designed to help customers deploy and support AI solutions faster and more reliably, while also ensuring security and compliance across different use cases.

The Town of Vail served as a flagship example demonstrating HPE’s platform capabilities in real-world conditions. By utilizing existing infrastructure such as town-wide cameras and applying Kamiwaza’s AI backend, HPE enabled adaptive workflows, specifically for fire detection and urban sustainability efforts. This approach provided not only cost and operational efficiencies but also embodied Vail’s commitment to renewable energy and environmental goals. The collaboration between HPE, Kamiwaza, and integration partner SHI showcases how AI can drive meaningful public benefits, such as early fire warning systems and safer deployment environments, all while scaling to future smart city applications.
