The Advanced HPE Edge-to-Cloud Solutions course is five days in duration and teaches you how to plan and design advanced HPE Edge-to-Cloud and HPE GreenLake solutions based on HPE technologies and industry-standard workloads related to optimizing for performance and/or availability. Hands-on activities will guide you through complex design exercises using skills such as information gathering and analyzing customer business and technical requirements. You will learn to recommend and position HPE GreenLake, compute, storage, network solutions, tools, and appropriate services for customer use cases and workloads.

Skills Gained

After you successfully complete this course, expect to be able to:

  • Describe, differentiate, and apply IT industry trends, standard architectures, technologies, and cloud delivery models.
  • Gather and analyze customer business and technical requirements.
  • Recommend and position HPE offerings (solutions, products, and services) for customer use cases.
  • Explain HPE value differentiation/distinction in the marketplace and positioning and upsell/cross-sell opportunities.
  • Architect and design an HPE solution based on customer needs.

Who Can Benefit

The ideal candidate has a minimum of five to seven years of hands on experience or equivalent designing complex solutions for Enterprise customers. They can scope and architect solutions for the full edge-to-cloud service experience including all of the following HPE technologies: Cloud Services, Compute, Storage, Networking, and Services.
