HPE adds new capabilities to GreenLake and Morpheus to streamline virtualization, data security, and AI processing in hybrid cloud environments. The company is also expanding its partnership with Nvidia.
During Discover Barcelona 2025, HPE introduces new features within GreenLake and Morpheus Software. The focus is on providing businesses with more freedom of choice in their virtualization strategy.
Virtualization Strategy
The HVM hypervisor and Morpheus VM Essentials receive multi-hypervisor support and software-defined networking for microsegmentation. Combined with Apstra, this delivers consistent network configuration between virtual and physical environments.
With this, HPE offers a complete virtualization stack, including disaster recovery, container support, bare metal options, and network virtualization. The company aims to provide an alternative to existing virtualization platforms without locking organizations into a single vendor.
HPE Morpheus
HPE Morpheus now supports Kubernetes clusters on top of its own hypervisor. This allows organizations to manage container workloads alongside traditional VM environments. For data protection, HPE integrates Zerto for continuous protection of virtual machines, while Morpheus collaborates with Veeam for hypervisor backups.
HPE StoreOnce platforms now offer faster backup and recovery capabilities for AI-driven data streams, with built-in security layers such as immutability and logical air-gapping. This aims to reduce data loss risks in hybrid environments.

Nvidia also present
HPE expands its partnership with Nvidia through the new Alletra Storage MP X10000 nodes. These create AI-ready data through metadata enrichment, vectorization, and optimization for AI pipelines. The design follows the Nvidia AI Data Platform reference architecture and the H200-series Blackwell GPUs.
Additionally, HPE Private Cloud AI receives the latest RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell GPUs. These systems are positioned as part of a ‘turnkey AI factory’ for businesses, including STIG-hardened software and support for secure environments.
Making Costs More Transparent
Within GreenLake, HPE introduces new services such as CloudPhysics Plus, Cloud Commit, and a renewed Marketplace. The new features aim to make costs more transparent and simplify migration planning. HPE Financial Services also offers programs to finance CloudOps software and Alletra storage with cost reductions of up to 10 percent.
