WTF?

HP flashing that ink subscription money around.

HPE does not get any ink money, that went with HP Inc. HPE only operates in enterprise spaces (servers and network hardware).

Good to know. Fuck both companies.

How does Juniper spruce up AI offerings?

solidgrue@lemmy.world on 10 Jan 2024 13:58 collapse

Their Mist platform is one of the better management panes of glass out there. The analytics engine for wireless diagnostics is quite comprehensive. Better than the Aruba offering, at least.

I’m wondering how many months/years it will take HP to destroy the Juniper brand…

Frog-Brawler@kbin.social on 10 Jan 2024 12:52 next collapse

2 years is my guess.

Broadcom: Pfft amateurs

SheeEttin@programming.dev on 10 Jan 2024 19:11 collapse

Broadcom is so good at it, they wrecked VMware years before even completing the acquisition.

stevehobbes@lemy.lol on 10 Jan 2024 12:56 next collapse

Juniper did a pretty good job of that themselves over the last few years.

JJROKCZ@lemmy.world on 10 Jan 2024 14:46 next collapse

It’s not like juniper was faultless before this acquisition… but HPE will ruin in as soon as they get an understanding of what they’ve bought and the best way to cut opex costs while adding/increasing revenue in order to kill any good will with customers

Aruba faired ok, no? as did Nimble. Granted i’ve not had any HPE contact for a few years now.

kn33@lemmy.world on 10 Jan 2024 17:15 next collapse

Aruba and Nimble are solid products today, yeah

aniki@lemm.ee on 10 Jan 2024 21:56 collapse

Are they though? I don’t hear anyone talk about Aruba anymore. I’ve never even heard of Nimble.

We are an HP/E shop.
Servers are not too outlandish in prices but I can’t compare it to anything outside of HP/E.

I like that their service is pretty smooth.
Pretty okayish to get to the firmware stuff for both Aruba and HPE products.

c0mbatbag3l@lemmy.world on 10 Jan 2024 18:11 next collapse

I don’t know how Juniper compares to Aruba but it’s been pretty good for me so far.

Dkarma@lemmy.world on 10 Jan 2024 23:24 collapse

It’s not HP

Toes@ani.social on 10 Jan 2024 18:35 next collapse

That should trigger some sort of monopoly protection. There already is a limited choice of vendors.

Appoxo@lemmy.dbzer0.com on 10 Jan 2024 18:57 next collapse

I can see that…
