As an HPE Partner based in the United States, THNKBIG brings deep GreenLake and Ezmeral expertise to enterprises across Texas, California, and nationwide. We have deployed over 50 Kubernetes environments on HPE infrastructure — from GreenLake consumption-based platforms for Houston energy companies to Ezmeral Container Platform deployments for San Francisco data science teams to bare-metal ProLiant clusters serving Dallas financial services firms. Our US-based engineers understand HPE unique approach to hybrid cloud: bringing cloud economics and operations to your data center while keeping data and workloads under your control.
What differentiates our HPE practice is our expertise across HPE complete container portfolio. GreenLake for Kubernetes delivers fully managed, consumption-based container platforms — we configure these for enterprises that want cloud-like operations without cloud-like data egress bills. Ezmeral Container Platform provides the enterprise features — data fabric, ML pipelines, and multi-tenancy — that data-intensive organizations require. We help you navigate HPE options and architect the right solution for your workloads, compliance requirements, and operational model.
For organizations in Austin, San Antonio, Los Angeles, and Ft Lauderdale evaluating infrastructure strategies, HPE offers compelling hybrid cloud capabilities. GreenLake Central provides unified management across on-premises and public cloud, while Aruba integration extends HPE reach to the network edge. We architect solutions that leverage HPE consumption-based pricing for predictable costs, integrate with existing enterprise systems, and scale from initial deployment to enterprise-wide platform. Whether you are modernizing legacy infrastructure or building greenfield platforms, our HPE expertise ensures your investment delivers maximum business value.
Our HPE Container Platform Expertise
Our engineering team holds HPE certifications and maintains active partnerships with HPE technical teams for GreenLake, Ezmeral, and infrastructure products. We have deployed Kubernetes on ProLiant servers across multiple generations, configured GreenLake consumption models for enterprises seeking OPEX-based infrastructure, and implemented Ezmeral data fabric for organizations with demanding ML/AI requirements. Our experience spans the full HPE compute portfolio from entry-level ProLiant to high-performance Superdome Flex.
We specialize in Ezmeral Container Platform for data-intensive workloads. Unlike pure-play Kubernetes distributions, Ezmeral includes a unified data fabric that spans Kubernetes clusters and legacy systems — critical for organizations that cannot refactor everything into cloud-native architectures overnight. Our implementations connect Ezmeral to enterprise data sources, configure ML pipelines for data science teams, and implement the multi-tenancy controls that enterprise security requires. We have built Ezmeral platforms for machine learning, real-time analytics, and data lake modernization across multiple industries.
For edge computing, we deploy HPE Edgeline servers with lightweight Kubernetes for distributed workloads. This includes integration with Aruba networking for edge-to-cloud connectivity, configuration of HPE edge management tools, and implementation of GitOps workflows that manage hundreds of edge locations from a central platform. Our implementations enable real-time processing for IoT, retail analytics, and industrial automation while maintaining the security and governance that enterprise IT requires.

Frequently asked questions
HPE and On-Premises Kubernetes Infrastructure with THNKBIG
Hewlett Packard Enterprise provides the compute, storage, and networking infrastructure that powers many of the world's most demanding enterprise Kubernetes deployments. THNKBIG partners with HPE to design and implement on-premises Kubernetes platforms on HPE hardware — including ProLiant servers, Alletra storage, and Aruba networking — for organizations that require data sovereignty, air-gapped operations, or performance characteristics that cloud platforms cannot match. Our HPE practice combines deep Kubernetes expertise with infrastructure knowledge that enables us to configure bare-metal Kubernetes deployments optimized for the specific performance characteristics and reliability requirements of enterprise workloads.
HPE's GreenLake platform bridges the gap between traditional on-premises infrastructure and cloud operating models, providing a consumption-based infrastructure service that can be deployed in your data center. THNKBIG helps organizations leverage HPE GreenLake for Kubernetes, implementing managed Kubernetes clusters that provide cloud-like operational simplicity while maintaining the data sovereignty and compliance control of on-premises infrastructure. For industries like healthcare, financial services, and government that have data residency requirements or air-gap security requirements, HPE GreenLake with THNKBIG's Kubernetes expertise provides the right balance of cloud-native capability and operational control.
High-performance workloads — including AI training, video processing, and scientific computing — often require bare-metal performance that virtualized cloud infrastructure cannot provide. THNKBIG has implemented Kubernetes on HPE hardware specifically optimized for GPU workloads, using NVIDIA GPU Operator on ProLiant DL380 and DL560 servers equipped with A100 and H100 GPUs. These implementations deliver the raw compute performance required for large model training while providing the orchestration and scheduling capabilities of Kubernetes. For organizations building private AI infrastructure on HPE hardware, THNKBIG's combined hardware and Kubernetes expertise delivers platforms that meet both performance and operational requirements.
