Hewlett Packard Enterprise is restructuring to accelerate its hybrid cloud sales offensive.
The former maker of expensive printer ink wants to create a new hybrid cloud organisation that includes a storage business unit, and this will require a shake-up, including executive departures and reassignments.
The new hybrid cloud business unit will be led by HPE CTO Fidelma Russo, who will be responsible for a business that includes HPE Storage, HPE GreenLake Cloud Services Solutions and the current Office of the CTO, all under the umbrella of the HPE GreenLake platform.
After the restructuring, HPE executive vice president and general manager of the storage business unit, Tom Black, will report to Russo.
HPE general manager of HPE GreenLake and cloud solutions group Vishal Lall will leave the company, and senior vice president and General Manager of HPE Services Pradeep Kumar will retire.
The company said these changes will take effect at the start of our 2024 fiscal year on 1 November 2023. The changes will unify HPE’s portfolio and enhance the delivery of a true cloud experience for customers and partners.
“They will enable tighter integrations that benefit our customers and partners and spark innovation. And, they position us to continue to win in the market,” the statement said.
