At HPE's annual Discover conference, the emphasis was on the introduction of agentic AI technologies, particularly within Aruba Networking. These innovations include a multi-agent orchestrator (MAO) that efficiently manages task-specific agents and enhances networking capabilities through a conversational copilot. Aruba's SVP highlighted the potential for these AI agents to perform tasks autonomously, improving user experiences and alleviating some burdens from network administrators. A practical application discussed involved adjusting Wi-Fi connections based on device performance, demonstrating how autonomous AI could streamline network management.
Not all the autonomous agentic AI that HPE announced at its annual Discover conference this week is live and ready for customers, but don't tell that to the Aruba networking group - whose enthusiasm outpaces its parent company's, at least in terms of talking points.
The new tech places task-specific agents under the authority of a multi-agent orchestrator (MAO) that can aggregate data supplied to it by its sub agents.
As one example of what Aruba's new AI features can do, Mottram used the example of the 802.11r specification, which aims to improve the speed at which devices connect to Wi-Fi access points.
An intelligent platform that's looking at user experience across the network.
