Reducing barriers to entry to foundation model training
In the past couple of years, the world has seen the unprecedented growth and development of machine learning and AI applications, along with a huge spike in demand for new systems. This rising demand for AI services has, according to today’s guest, stifled competition to supply AI to those with a lot of resources, and caused uneven access for the rest of us. In this episode we are looking at reducing those barriers to entry, and helping more people get access to foundation model training, at less cost financially - and to the planet – with Fellow and VP at HPE, Paolo Faraboschi. This is Technology Now, a weekly show from Hewlett Packard Enterprise. Every week we look at a story that's been making headlines, take a look at the technology behind it, and explain why it matters to organizations and what we can learn from it.

How do we balance security fears and innovation?
In this episode we are looking at the dilemma being faced by organisations across the world when it comes to moving forward with innovations in technology, whilst also being wary of cyber security issues. In fact, according to research by HPE Aruba Networking, just under two thirds of IT leaders believe their companies are missing out for that very reason. Here to discuss an approach to balancing security and innovation is HPE Chief Security Officer, Bobby Ford. This is Technology Now, a weekly show from Hewlett Packard Enterprise. Every week we look at a story that's been making headlines, take a look at the technology behind it, and explain why it matters to organizations and what we can learn from it.

Geo-distributed workloads - chasing the sun to reduce our data center energy use
In this episode, we are looking at improving the energy efficiency and sustainability of our computer workloads by shifting them around the world in real-time - something called ‘geo-distribution’. The idea involves looking at real time global energy production- ideally from renewable sources - and a load of other factors including weather, water tables and more. By comparing these factors as well as compute availability and the lag between data source and data center, you can find the most sustainable locations to perform a task. Ideally, shifting the workloads so quickly that the user doesn’t even know it’s happening. To tell us more we’re joined this week by Cullen Bash, Vice President, Research & Development at HPE, who leads the Systems Architecture Lab at Hewlett Packard Labs. This is Technology Now, a weekly show from Hewlett Packard Enterprise. Every week we look at a story that's been making headlines, take a look at the technology behind it, and explain why it matters to organizations and what we can learn from it.

AI and ML Networking: bridging the gap between performance and economy
In this episode, we’re exploring the backbone of AI – network fabrics. The network fabric is the backbone of the data centre - keeping everything together between the storage, compute, and users. It’s much more than patch cables, it’s a finely balanced, interconnected process ecosystem. With the advent of AI, the demands on those network fabrics are changing, putting pressure on our compute resources, as well as on our energy usage. So what can be done, and can AI help optimize itself? To find out more, we’re joined by Puneet Sharma, director of Hewlett Packard Labs' Networking and Distributed Systems Lab. This is Technology Now, a weekly show from Hewlett Packard Enterprise. Every week we look at a story that's been making headlines, take a look at the technology behind it, and explain why it matters to organizations and what we can learn from it.

Edge computing and AI
In this episode we are looking at an emerging field which is bringing together two transformative fields in tech - edge, and AI. Traditionally, the intense compute requirements of AI have made it difficult to implement on edge devices - cell phones, laptops, or micro-electronics. However, that is slowly changing, and the global edge AI market is set to expand at a compound annual growth rate of 21.0% from 2023 to 2030. So, to find out more about edge AI, and the challenges or opportunities they can bring to our organisations, we’re joined today by Peter Moser, Senior Distinguished Technologist at Hewlett Packard Enterprise. This is Technology Now, a weekly show from Hewlett Packard Enterprise. Every week we look at a story that's been making headlines, take a look at the technology behind it, and explain why it matters to organizations and what we can learn from it.

Tackling burnout in cybersecurity
In this episode we are looking at a growing issue in the tech field: Burnout among cyber security professionals. A report shared by the Information Systems Audit and Control Association shows that 51% of people working in cyber security may leave their job in the next year because of stress. But it's not just the stress of protecting organisations that is having an effect on people’s mental health in the sector. It’s an area that led today's guest, cyber security expert Peter Coroneos, to set up Cybermindz.org - a not-for-profit to help address and prevent burnout in the cybersecurity industry. This is Technology Now, a weekly show from Hewlett Packard Enterprise.

Aurora - The world's second exascale computer officially recognized
In this episode we are looking at computers going fast. ‘Exascale’ means a computer is running a billion, billion operations every second. At the 2024 ISC high-performance conference in Hamburg, Germany, the world’s second exascale machine was officially recognised: The Aurora supercomputer at Argonne National Laboratory officially broke the exascale barrier at 1.012 exaflops. So why does exascale matter, and why is it so difficult to achieve? Joining us to discuss is Susan Coghlan, Project Director of the Aurora exascale computer at the Argonne Leadership Computing Facility at Argonne National Laboratory in Lemont, Illinois.

Zero Trust Network Access and Virtual Private Networks: The VPN vs ZTNA showdown
In this episode we are looking at why people are moving away from Virtual Private Networks, or VPNs, and are navigating towards Zero Trust Network Access, or ZTNAs. VPNs have largely been unchallenged as the go-to cyber security option for organisations since they first came about in the mid-1990s. However, they do have security flaws which have been exploited by hackers and cyber criminals, leading many to ask whether there’s a more secure solution. Joining us to discuss why ZTNA is becoming a more popular security option for organisations is Jaye Tillson, HPE’s Director of Strategy in Cyber Security. This is Technology Now, a weekly show from Hewlett Packard Enterprise.

Synthetic data and the next generation of AI creativity
Today we’re discussing synthetic data - that is, data trained by AI and computer simulations, rather than gathered from the real world. Now, generating theoretical data is nothing new - we’ve been taking small samples of things and extrapolating from it for decades. However, with the advent of AI we don’t necessarily just need to extrapolate. We can generate completely new, close-to-real data using AI. But why? And why does it matter? To explain we’re joined by Chief Technology Officer for AI at Hewlett Packard Enterprise, Matt Armstrong-Barnes This is Technology Now, a weekly show from Hewlett Packard Enterprise.

How can we avoid the human being a security weakpoint?
For the last decade, messaging around cyber security has often followed a similar pattern: Make people fear the consequences of being hacked. We are only human, after all. We’re flawed, and we’re fallible. So are we the weakest link in the cyber security chain? Or is there a better way to look at it? To answer that, we’re joined this week by HPE Cyber Security Awareness Training Program Manager, Joanne O’Connor. This is Technology Now, a weekly show from Hewlett Packard Enterprise.

How a supercomputer on the International Space Station is revolutionising science on the edge
In the next couple of episodes we’re going to be looking at HPE Spaceborne Computer 2 - a supercomputer on the International Space Station (ISS) that’s revolutionising computing at the edge, and science in space. This week, we’ll be looking at the science behind the computer. Next week, we’ll be looking at the way it’s changing the way research is conducted in orbit and beyond. So how is ddge computing changing how scientists and astronauts benefit from space exploration? To explain, we’re joined by the Principal Investigator for HPE Spaceborne Computer-2, Mark Fernandez. This is Technology Now, a weekly show from Hewlett Packard Enterprise. Every week we look at a story that's been making headlines, take a look at the technology behind it, and explain why it matters to organizations and what we can learn from it.
