Designing HPE Server Solutions course - Dates and application
Applying for closed-group training
Application
Step up your server-design expertise and build modern, secure, high-performance HPE solutions! This course gives you the practical skills to plan, size, and design end-to-end HPE ProLiant, Apollo, Synergy and hybrid-infrastructure platforms. You work with security features, iLO management, on-prem and cloud tooling, HPC and Big Data concepts, lifecycle management and proposal development so you can deliver solid, future-ready server architectures.
This course is designed for professionals who design, position, or deliver HPE compute solutions in customer environments. It is ideal for consultants looking to strengthen solution architecture skills, pre-sales and sales engineers who build technical proposals, systems engineers responsible for deploying or managing HPE infrastructures, and solutions architects who design secure, scalable server platforms for modern workloads.
