Hewlett Packard Enterprise (NYSE: HPE) announced a series of networking product introductions and platform integrations at its HPE Discover Las Vegas 2026 conference, extending its self-driving network strategy across data centers, enterprise edge, and AI infrastructure.

Among the hardware additions, HPE introduced the HPE Juniper Networking QFX5140 Switch, designed for inference clusters and edge AI use cases, and the HPE Juniper Networking QFX5252 Switch tray for AMD Helios, a scale-up module for AMD's AI rack-scale platform. Both switches are being added to HPE's networks-for-AI portfolio.

On the software side, HPE announced integration of its Networking CX switching portfolio with the HPE Mist platform, adding capabilities including zero-touch provisioning, wired assurance, and AI-driven actions. HPE also made its Marvis AI-powered self-driving capabilities available within HPE Aruba Central, extending autonomous operations across its networking portfolio.

HPE said HPE Mist Networking Data Center Assurance is now integrated with both HPE Compute Ops Management and the GreenLake platform, enabling cross-domain visibility across compute and hybrid-cloud environments.

The company also announced a unified SASE platform built on HPE Networking EdgeConnect, combining SD-WAN and Security Service Edge in a single management console with zero trust capabilities.

HPE Financial Services is launching a Network Migration Program offering hardware financing, 0% software financing, and an IT Asset Program to help organizations transition to AI-ready networking infrastructure.

"The success of agentic AI in the enterprise depends on a modern networking foundation built for autonomous workflows, where network performance, reliability, and intelligence determine the effectiveness of the entire AI architecture," said Rami Rahim, executive vice president and general manager of Networking at HPE.
