HPE ProLiant Gen12 – Performance, security and efficiency for modern data centres.

 

HPE ProLiant Computer.

The HPE ProLiant Gen12 Server redefines what’s possible in compute performance, memory bandwidth and built-in security. Engineered for AI, virtualisation, data-heavy workloads and edge deployments, Gen12 servers deliver clear advantages over the previous generation—including faster performance, expanded storage and I/O capabilities, and enhanced hardware-level security features.

Cloud

An intuitive cloud experience.

Take control of your entire compute environment—from edge to cloud—with a streamlined, cloud-native approach. Empower your teams to move from reactive to proactive by providing global visibility and clarity through a single, intuitive interface.

Security
Security that’s built in from the ground up.

Protect your systems, applications and data with a resilient security architecture that spans from edge to cloud. HPE’s trusted Zero Trust model helps reduce hardware vulnerabilities and guard against threats from unauthorised software.

Performance
Performance that powers your workloads.

Accelerate operations across your data centre and edge environments with the performance you need to boost efficiency and drive innovation. Achieve cost-effective computing power—wherever your data lives.

Yesterday’s compute power won’t drive tomorrow’s innovation.
When IT infrastructure becomes a balancing act.

Today’s IT environments are more complex than ever.
Businesses are under pressure to deploy emerging technologies like AI, virtualisation and edge computing quickly and efficiently—yet rising costs, security risks and a lack of visibility are slowing progress.
Striking the right balance between performance, energy efficiency and cybersecurity is a constant challenge that drains resources and stifles innovation.
The result? Inefficient operations, growing risks and mounting pressure to do more with less.

The biggest challenges at a glance.

 

1. Complex workload enablement.

Modern digital use cases demand flexible, right-sized server resources, but limited capacity and fragmented infrastructure make rapid deployment difficult.

2. Inefficient operations and rising costs.

Manual processes, lack of automation and over-provisioning drive up energy consumption, costs and downtime.

3. Lack of visibility and control.

Without real-time insights into utilisation, costs and energy consumption, opportunities go unnoticed and decisions are delayed.

4. Growing cybersecurity risks.

Digital and physical threats are increasingly targeting server environments—especially at the edge. Emerging technologies like quantum computing are raising the stakes, making Zero Trust strategies and modern encryption essential.

5. Edge and virtualisation challenges.

Distributed sites must be operated securely and efficiently—despite rising virtualisation costs and constrained IT budgets.

40%

of all servers are over five years old, yet they deliver only

7%

of total compute output—while consuming

66%

of all data centre energy.

Outdated infrastructure drains energy, budget and innovation.

Upgrade to the latest generation of HPE ProLiant Compute and consolidate up to 7:1 while saving up to 65% in energy compared to Gen10.5. Optimise workloads from VDI to AI and benefit from built-in, future-ready security.

Modernise now to future-proof your business—while cutting energy use and costs.
