Description: Antonio Neri explains edge computing and how HPE is trying to get ahead of it.

[MUSIC PLAYING] SUSIE GHARIB: You heard the debate though, there are some tech experts who are saying that the big opportunities and the real future is the cloud. And that companies like Amazon, Google, and Microsoft are on the right track by putting their stake in the cloud. What do you say to that? ANTONIO NERI: You know when you talk to customers, they tell you, "I'm not going to put everything on the cloud. I'm going to put stuff in my data center or somebody else data center close to me and some stuff in the public cloud." But in the end, we're going to live in this hybrid world. And therefore, infrastructure enabled by the software experience that provides that cloud agility is going to be necessary as we go forward. And that's an opportunity for us. SUSIE GHARIB: You also say that the next new big thing is edge computing. I mean, tell us in an easy-to-understand way what this is and why it's so important. ANTONIO NERI: We live in a world that everything is connected. Right? So think about your personal lives, whether it's your mobile phone or now at your home, thermostats, refrigerators, anything is connected to the network. And therefore, that connectivity has to have security built into it. More and more intelligence is built into those devices, which means data gets processed exactly at the point where they are operating. In fact, we say, 75% of the data is generated where we live and work. And so the question is how we move the cloud experience closer where the data is generated, so we can extract value real time. And that's why it starts with connectivity, security, and then moving that cloud in the form of edge computing to the data. And that's the opportunity for us. SUSIE GHARIB: But that new edge computing, that's years away. I mean, how long is it going to be before it can have a significant impact at HPE? ANTONIO NERI: We believe it's going to move much faster than ever seen before. We believe that verticals like manufacturing, health care are adopting this new age computing technologies way faster because the amount of data that's being created needs to be processed where the action is. And with the implementation of 5G with the new type of connectivities, we actually open new use cases. So we believe it's going to move much faster than we think and for us it's a big opportunity to get ahead of it.

HPE CEO Says Edge Computing is Next Big Thing

Antonio Neri explains edge computing and how HPE is trying to get ahead of it. 

No way you heard the debate, though There are some tech experts who are saying that the big opportunities and the real future is the cloud and that companies like Amazon, Google and Microsoft are on the right track by putting their stake in the cloud. What do you say to that? You know, when you talk to customers, they tell you I'm not gonna put everything in the cloud. I'm gonna put stuff in my data center or somebody else data center close to me, some stuff in before the cloud. But in the end, you know, we're gonna live in this hybrid ward in there for infrastructure enabled by the software experience that provides that cloud agility is gonna be necessary as we go forward. And that's an opportunity for us. You also say that, uh, the next new big thing is EJ computing. Tell us in an easy to understand way what this is and why it's so important. We live in a world that everything is connected, right? So think about your personal lives. You know, whether it's your mobile phone or now at the home, you know, thermostats, refrigerators, anything is connected to the network and before that connecting, they have to have security building. Tow it mortem or intelligence is built in disposables of devices, which means data gets processed exactly the point where they're operating. In fact, we say 75% of the data is generated where we live and work. And so the question is how we moved the cloud expedience closer where the data is generated so we can extract value real time. And that's why starts with connectivity security and then moving that cloud in the former rage computing to the data. And that's the opportunity for us. But that a new edge computing that's years away. I mean, how long is it gonna be before it can have a significant impact at HP we believe is gonna move much faster than ever seen before? We believe that particles like manufacturer health care I'll adopt in this new age. Computer technologies were faster because the amount of data that we created it needs to be processed where the action is, and with the implementation of five G with a new type of connectivity is we actually open New Year's cases, so we believe is gonna move much faster than we think, and for us, is a big opportunity to get ahead of it.
