Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) is tying artificial intelligence (AI) into a handful of new products and services, with a specific focus on enhancing deep learning. The new offerings include hardware, software, reference designs, and physical research locations. On the hardware and software front, HPE launched an integrated product that ties its Apollo 6500 hardware box with software from technology partner Bright Computing. The combination is designed to allow for deep learning application development using pre-configured software frameworks, libraries, automated software updates, and cluster management. The AI Research unit at Hewlett Packard Labs also unveiled a set of tools to help customers in selecting hardware and software environments for different deep learning tasks.
