HPE Announces New Nonstop Compute Systems
'Our customers rely on HPE Nonstop solutions to power mission-critical workloads,' said Casey Taylor, general manager, HPE Nonstop at HPE. 'In fact, one of our auto manufacturing customers has been using HPE's fault-tolerant systems for more than 35 years without any unplanned downtime. With the launch of HPE Nonstop Compute NS5 X5 and NS9 X5, we are reinforcing our commitment to deliver an architecture designed for fault-tolerance and high performance so that our customers can scale their businesses and innovate with confidence.'
Industry-leading uptime, more power and double the memory
HPE Nonstop Compute solutions deliver more processing power with significant enhancements in memory, system-interconnect bandwidth and networking performance. The two new solutions include compute, software, storage, networking and services that are built on HPE's fault-tolerant architecture. This architecture includes a full-system cluster, operating system services and database. According to IDC, HPE Nonstop solutions are categorized as AL4 with uptimes that are 99.999% or 99.9999%.
The new solutions feature Intel Xeon processors for up to 15% more performance capacity. The entry-class HPE Nonstop Compute NS5 X5 is available with Intel Xeon Bronze 3400 series processors.
The flagship HPE Nonstop Compute NS9 X5 is available with Intel Xeon Gold 6400 series processors.
HPE doubles the memory capacity for both HPE Nonstop Compute NS5 X5 and NS9 X5 by offering up to 8 TB, enabling customers to boost productivity. The HPE Nonstop Compute NS9 X5 offers 2.5X more networking bandwidth. These updates, along with improved fiber channel connectivity, enable financial services companies to process more transactions per second. In the manufacturing space, the solution enables multi-plant integrations, resulting in faster insights that better inform smart MES applications.
The NS9 X5 can be clustered with the past two generations of HPE Nonstop Compute solutions, enabling customers to seamlessly add new servers to multi-generation compute configurations. This capability allows enterprises to migrate confidently without experiencing downtime and scale operations as needed.
This update coincides with an operating system update that introduces enhancements and adds support for multi-factor authentication (MFA) that helps organizations comply with General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS), Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and the SOC 2 auditing procedure.

Confluent Announces New Cloud Capabilities For Data Streaming
Confluent has announced new Confluent Cloud capabilities that make it easier to process and secure data for faster insights and decision-making. Snapshot queries, new in Confluent Cloud for Apache Flink, bring together real-time and historic data processing to make artificial intelligence (AI) agents and analytics smarter. Confluent Cloud network (CCN) routing simplifies private networking for Apache Flink, and IP Filtering adds access controls for publicly accessible Flink pipelines, securing data for agentic AI and analytics. 'Agentic AI is moving from hype to enterprise adoption as organizations look to gain a competitive edge and win in today's market,' said Shaun Clowes, Chief Product Officer at Confluent. 'But without high-quality data, even the most advanced systems can't deliver real value. The new Confluent Cloud for Apache Flink features make it possible to blend real-time and batch data so that enterprises can trust their agentic AI to drive real change.' Bridging the Real-Time and Batch Divide 'The rise of agentic AI orchestration is expected to accelerate, and companies need to start preparing now,' said Stewart Bond, Vice President of Data Intelligence and Integration Software at IDC. 'To unlock agentic AI's full potential, companies should seek solutions that unify disparate data types, including structured, unstructured, real-time, and historical information, in a single environment. This allows AI to derive richer insights and drive more impactful outcomes.' Agentic AI is driving widespread change in business operations by increasing efficiency and powering faster decision-making by analyzing data to uncover valuable trends and insights. However, for AI agents to make the right decisions, they need historical context about what happened in the past and insight into what's happening right now. For example, for fraud detection, banks need real-time data to react in the moment and historical data to see if a transaction fits a customer's usual patterns. Hospitals need real-time vitals alongside patient medical history to make safe, informed treatment decisions. But to leverage both past and present data, teams often have to use separate tools and develop manual workarounds, resulting in time-consuming work and broken workflows. Additionally, it's important to secure the data that's used for analytics and agentic AI; this ensures trustworthy results and prevents sensitive data from being accessed. Snapshot Queries Unify Processing on One Platform In Confluent Cloud, snapshot queries let teams unify historical and streaming data with a single product and language, enabling consistent, intelligent experiences for both analytics and agentic AI. With seamless Tableflow integration, teams can easily gain context from past data. Snapshot queries allow teams to explore, test, and analyze data without spinning up new workloads. This makes it easier to supply agents with context from historic and real-time data or conduct an audit to understand key trends and patterns. Snapshot queries are now available in early access. CCN Routing Simplifies Private Networking for Flink Private networking is important for organizations that require an additional layer of security. Confluent offers a streamlined private networking solution by reusing existing CCNs that teams have already created for Apache Kafka clusters. Teams can use CCN to securely connect their data to any Flink workload, such as streaming pipelines, AI agents, or analytics. CCN routing is now generally available on Amazon Web Services (AWS) in all regions where Flink is supported. IP Filtering Protects Flink Workloads in Hybrid Environments Many organizations that operate in hybrid environments need more control over which data can be publicly accessed. IP Filtering for Flink helps teams restrict internet traffic to allowed IPs and improves visibility into unauthorized access attempts by making it easier to track the attempts. IP Filtering is generally available for all Confluent Cloud users. Now organizations can more easily turn the promise of agentic AI into a competitive advantage. To learn more about the other new Confluent Cloud features, including the Snowflake source connector, cross-cloud Cluster Linking, and new Schema Registry private networking features, check out the launch blog. 0 0
