Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) has introduced the HPE Diversity Startup Program, a groundbreaking initiative aimed at providing inclusive opportunities for women-owned and minority-owned startups to access the HPE GreenLake edge-to-cloud platform.
Developed in partnership with Alpha3 Cloud, a trusted HPE Partner Ready service provider specializing in hybrid cloud solutions, Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS), and Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS), the HPE Diversity Startup Program offers complimentary cloud service vouchers to qualifying startups owned by women and minorities. These startups can leverage HPE GreenLake services to deliver cost-effective and efficient digital solutions to their customers.
Through this program, Alpha3 Cloud can now optimize and transform their customers’ businesses by utilizing HPE GreenLake, while simultaneously enhancing their own business capabilities. Alexia Clements, Vice President Worldwide GTM, HPE GreenLake Cloud Services, emphasized that the HPE Diversity Startup Program empowers cloud service providers to quickly scale and ramp up their cloud platforms to better cater to customer requirements.
With data centers located in the San Francisco Bay Area and Northern Virginia, Alpha3 Cloud offers cloud services built on HPE GreenLake, adopting a flexible month-to-month subscription model that eliminates vendor lock-in. Their cloud services have been tailored to provide seamless provisioning that grows in tandem with the businesses they serve, with pricing options starting as low as $13 per month.
To deliver their IaaS and PaaS solutions, Alpha3 Cloud relies on the high-performance HPE Apollo 2000 Gen10 Plus System for compute, along with the reliable HPE Apollo 4200 Gen10 Server for storage. These solutions enable Alpha3 Cloud to create high-density environments that support affordable cloud services and provide modularity to seamlessly expand capacity as needed.
Ron Sacks, CEO of Alpha3 Cloud, expressed his enthusiasm for the collaboration with HPE GreenLake, stating that it enables them to support the emerging business community with precisely tailored provisioning, efficient cost management, and the flexibility to integrate their own value-added services as required.
