A customer tells you they want to modernize IT. Which characteristic indicates a potential HPE Intelligent Edge customer?

Question

Options

• AThe customer wants to modernize mobile endpoints.
• BThe customer wants to modernize applications.
• CThe customer wants to modernize the data center.
• DThe customer wants to modernize IT operations.

• A
  82% (18)
• B
  5% (1)
• C
  5% (1)
• D
  9% (2)

Explanation

Option A is correct because HPE Intelligent Edge - powered by Aruba - is specifically designed to connect, secure, and optimize mobile endpoints (laptops, phones, IoT devices) at the network edge through wireless LAN, SD-WAN, and edge networking solutions. Modernizing how mobile devices connect and are managed is the core use case.

• B (applications) points to application modernization platforms like HPE GreenLake or container/cloud solutions - not Intelligent Edge.
• C (data center) maps to HPE's compute portfolio (ProLiant, Synergy, Alletra) or GreenLake infrastructure, which lives in the core, not the edge.
• D (IT operations) aligns more with HPE's management and services layer (Pointnext, GreenLake Central) rather than edge networking specifically.

Memory tip: Think "Edge = where endpoints meet the network." If the customer's pain point involves how mobile users and devices connect, that's the Intelligent Edge. Data center = HPE Compute. Apps = modernization/cloud. Operations = GreenLake/services.
