Simplify's Take

What believers are saying

  • Growth is strong: revenue hit a record $12.2 billion, up 34%, in the quarter reported September 2026.
  • Time off to recharge: HPE gives four Wellness Fridays off a year plus 60 hours of paid volunteer time.
  • Scale gives range: HPE runs server, storage, networking and supercomputer businesses under one employer.

What critics are saying

  • Cuts continue after Juniper: an October 2025 WARN notice listed 52 HPE layoffs in San Jose, California.
  • Integration pressure: HPE still targets $600 million in yearly Juniper cost savings by fiscal 2028, as of October 2026.
  • Supply limits sales: in September 2026, CEO Antonio Neri said memory supply stays very constrained until 2028.

What makes Hewlett Packard Enterprise unique

  • Networking is now core: Juniper helped make networking a $2.9 billion business in the quarter reported September 2026.
  • AI networking is surging: Networks for AI orders hit a record $700 million in the quarter reported September 2026.
  • Hybrid cloud model: GreenLake bills customers monthly for on-premises servers and storage they use.

HPE to run AI on the Moon this year with Spaceborne Computer 4 aboard Astrolab's FLIP rover

Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) will run AI on the Moon before the end of the year. Its fourth-generation Spaceborne Computer (SBC4) will fly aboard Astrolab's Flex Lunar Innovation Platform (FLIP) rover, part of NASA's Commercial Lunar Payload Services programme. A SpaceX Falcon Heavy rocket will launch the rover, and Astrobotic's Griffin-1 lander will carry it to the Moon's south pole near Mons Mouton. SBC4 will run tuned large language model tests, machine learning on camera and LiDAR data, and supercomputing benchmarks, which could make it the first Top500 submission from a celestial body. The 1TB system uses mostly off-the-shelf parts, including Kioxia SSDs in a software RAID 1 mirror. Processing data locally saves scarce bandwidth back to Earth.

HPE shares fall 7.4% as Barclays downgrades and cuts target to $77

Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) shares fell about 7.4% to $63.695 at 11:48 ET on October 14, after Barclays downgraded the stock to Equal Weight. The bank cut its price target to $77 from $83 but left its financial forecasts unchanged. The move questions how much investors should pay for HPE's growth story, not its earnings outlook. The share price sits 124.2% above GuruFocus's GF Value estimate of $28.41. Data-center networking revenue rose 112.2% year over year to $382 million, about 3.1% of quarterly revenue of $12.2 billion. The wider Networking segment brought in $2.9 billion at a 22% operating margin, against 17% for Cloud & AI. The next earnings report must show stronger evidence that the premium is justified.

#softwaredefined | TidalScale | 31 comments

TidalScale began with a vision to establish a new category of computing offering unprecedented scalability, flexibility, and ease of deployment for large memory systems.  This was accomplished by stitching together industry standard computers connected with Ethernet to create a virtual server of essentially any size.  We called this innovation Software-Defined Servers.  Along the way there were many additional innovations including the recently announced TidalGuard™ technology which allowed for the hot-swapping of computers, enabling nodes to be replaced at the first sign of impending failure – all while keeping the application up and performant.  This was just one of the 30 issued patents on our technology. A new chapter is unfolding for Software-Defined Servers as TidalScale’s technology and many key team members will now be a part of Hewlett Packard Enterprise. With HPE’s long history of innovation, current market-leading positions, and emphasis on culture and innovation, we couldn’t think of a better company to continue to forge the future for the technology and end-user value proposition. In addition to the dedication of our employees and support from investors, we want to thank our partners and customers for choosing our technology for their workloads.  And looking forward, we are excited to see how HPE takes Software-Defined Servers to the next level!  #softwaredefined # | 31 comments on LinkedIn

HPE launches Gen13 servers with AMD EPYC CPUs for enterprise AI and agentic workloads

HPE unveiled four new ProLiant Gen13 Servers powered by 6th Generation AMD EPYC processors, designed to accelerate enterprise AI workloads whilst strengthening security and simplifying operations. The lineup includes the HPE ProLiant DL585a Gen13, supporting up to eight GPUs for AI inference and agentic AI workloads, and the compact DL525 Gen13 with up to 256 cores for high-throughput applications like fraud detection. Two OCP-compliant systems, the ProLiant XD245 and XD285, maximise compute density for data-intensive AI and HPC workloads through efficient shared power and cooling. The servers feature HPE iLO 8 with industry-first automatic self-encrypting drive capabilities and post-quantum cryptography readiness. HPE Compute Ops Management delivers 50% reduction in server management time. The DL525 launches later in 2026, with the DL585a following in early 2027.
