en.Wedoany.com Reported - Veeam Software announced an expanded partnership with Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) to help organizations modernize and scale their private cloud environments. The collaboration covers AI-ready infrastructure, verified designs, and repeatable, ready-to-use solutions for partners, aiming to accelerate deployment and reduce operational complexity.
This alliance is built on the Data Resilience by Design approach, embedding resilience as the foundation for secure, governable, and recoverable data. Based on this, the two companies have introduced new capabilities designed to simplify architecture, promote private cloud adoption, provide more secure data flows for AI, and accelerate business outcomes. John Jester, Chief Revenue Officer at Veeam, stated that the private cloud is evolving rapidly, with customers seeking greater agility, stronger control and governance, and the ability to run AI near their data—a transformation that requires data trust built on resilience.
At the core of this announcement is the introduction of a new verified design for HPE Private Cloud AI, aimed at facilitating the deployment of secure, AI-ready private environments. Developed in collaboration with NVIDIA, the platform includes a complete AI work environment, integrating a unified data lakehouse, ready-to-use models, and support for agentic AI use cases to meet growing data sovereignty requirements and the evolution of AI ethics into operational requirements. The new design includes Veeam Data Platform and Veeam Kasten integrated into the Veeam DataAI Command Platform to ensure continuity for virtualized workloads and Kubernetes environments, as well as enhanced control during AI data preparation through secure data ingestion capabilities, complementing HPE AI Essentials. Patrick Osborne, Senior Vice President at HPE, noted that this partnership enables AI to be deployed closer to data, using verified infrastructure with greater confidence in its management and protection. These verified models are designed to reduce complexity, accelerate the transition of AI pilot projects to production environments, while maintaining the level of control required for enterprise private clouds.
The partnership also introduces repeatable, partner-oriented solutions aligned with HPE's unified private cloud strategy. The two companies have provided sizing tools and intelligent templates to simplify infrastructure deployment based on HPE Private Cloud PC3000 and Morpheus VM Essentials, aiming to help partners standardize designs, optimize projects, and accelerate delivery to end customers. Additionally, Veeam offers a practical migration guide for moving virtual machines from VMware vSphere environments to HPE Morpheus, maintaining data resilience and recovery capabilities during the migration process.
Another key pillar of the alliance is strengthening trust in AI, especially as organizations move from experimentation to production environments. Veeam has launched the DataAI Command Platform, defined as the industry's first unified data and AI trust infrastructure. The platform integrates security, governance, compliance, privacy, and resilience capabilities through the DataAI Command Graph—an intelligent layer connecting multi-cloud, SaaS, and on-premises environments. Meanwhile, HPE Services will serve as the first pilot partner for Veeam's new Data and AI Trust Maturity Model, a framework that enables organizations to assess their readiness across four key pillars: Understanding, Security, Resilience, and Potential, aiming to provide an objective reference for measuring progress and prioritizing investments in data and AI trust.
