Keith White has been named as the head of HPE GreenLake – the newly-created edge-to-cloud platform-as-a-service business unit.
With more than 20 years’ experience at Microsoft, White played a key role in developing Microsoft’s end-to-end, go-to-market and cloud business strategy.
HPE said his most recent role as head of Intelligence Cloud, Worldwide Commercial Business, included playing a key role in driving significant Azure growth over seven consecutive years, HPE said.
White brings extensive experience in worldwide field sales and marketing, partner ecosystem development and business strategy leadership to his role, HPE said,
“As we transform to become the premier edge-to-cloud platform-as-a-service company, Keith’s role is fundamental to ensuring HPE continues to deliver a seamless cloud experience for our customers’ and partners’ workloads, at the edge, across all their clouds, and in the data centre,” Davis commented.
In two years, the platform has grown to more than 740 customers worldwide, including 160 new businesses, HPE said, while the channel has generated over 200 per cent growth in 2019.
“The cloud is not a destination. It’s an experience and operating model. And with leaders like Keith White – and solutions like HPE GreenLake Central – we will be bringing the benefits of hybrid IT to more and more customers, worldwide.”
