Share
Hewlett Packard Enterprise (NYSE: HPE) has announced two new additions to its HPE Nonstop Compute lineup. These solutions are designed to deliver more power, flexibility, and reliability for enterprise-critical workloads.
The newly revealed HPE Nonstop Compute NS5 X5 and NS9 X5 are optimized for high availability. They are tailored for operations like payment processing, fraud detection, and smart manufacturing execution systems (MES). Both solutions are now available.
According to HPE, these systems bring hardware and networking upgrades to help companies accelerate operations and modernize workloads. They are part of HPE's trusted portfolio designed to support mission-critical environments.
Casey Taylor, General Manager, HPE Nonstop, reported that one automotive customer has used HPE's fault-tolerant systems for over 35 years without unplanned downtime. Taylor said the new launch reinforces HPE's commitment to fault-tolerant, high-performance architectures.
The new systems offer:
Enhanced processing power with Intel Xeon processors
Up to 8 TB of memory, doubling previous capacity
2.5x more networking bandwidth in the NS9 X5
The entry-level NS5 X5 includes Intel Xeon Bronze 3400 series processors. The flagship NS9 X5 comes with Intel Xeon Gold 6400 series processors.
These updates allow financial services firms to process more transactions per second. Manufacturers can also integrate multi-plant operations for faster MES insights.
HPE stated that the NS9 X5 supports clustering with the past two generations of Nonstop solutions. This enables seamless multi-generation compute environments, allowing enterprises to scale without downtime.
The launch coincides with a new OS update. It includes support for multi-factor authentication (MFA) and compliance with GDPR, PCI-DSS, HIPAA, and SOC 2.
HPE emphasized that Nonstop Compute supports industries that demand continuous uptime. For example, a car rental company uses the platform to manage 80,000 daily reservations. Six of the top 10 global retail banks rely on HPE Nonstop for high-volume payments, ATM functionality, and core banking.
The new offerings are backed by expert HPE Nonstop engineers. Businesses can access these solutions as standalone deployments or via HPE GreenLake, starting June 2.

This new platform introduces a bold architectural approach to simplify data and storage management. The company revealed that as AI accelerates data growth and business needs evolve, traditional storage methods are no longer efficient. These outdated models often result in silos, fragmentation, and data sprawl. Pure Storage stated that the EDC enables organizations to shift from managing storage infrastructure to managing data. This shift helps reduce risks, cut costs, and improve operational efficiency. According to the company, the EDC provides unified control over data across on-premises, public cloud, and hybrid environments. It allows IT teams to manage data as a single virtualized cloud with intelligent automation and governance. The EDC is delivered through the Pure Storage platform. This platform lets organizations unify data across their environments and manage it through a centralized control plane. The result is simplified, service-based data delivery. Charles Giancarlo, Chairman and CEO of Pure Storage, commented on the launch. He said, 'It's time to stop managing storage and start managing data.' He emphasized that only Pure Storage offers a solution that enables global data estate management at this scale. At the core of the platform is Pure Fusion™, which unifies storage as a pool of adaptable resources. Arrays are self-discoverable and manageable from any system. This eliminates the need for in-depth configuration. New features were also announced: Workload Automation: Pure Fusion now includes presets and remote provisioning for fleetwide file, block, and object. This improves resiliency and reduces compliance risk. Pure Fusion now includes presets and remote provisioning for fleetwide file, block, and object.
