Company to Unveil Two Game-Changing IT Resilience Solutions at Cisco Live
Has anyone been watching the stock market this month, particularly from an Artificial Intelligence (AI) perspective? If you have, you’ve probably seen a lot of stories around NVIDIA, which recently delivered a blockbuster earnings report and saw its stock surge for an entire month. Market analysts can’t stop talking about how the AI market is going to affect the entire global economy in unchangeable ways – Bank of America recently shared a staggering PwC prediction that AI will contribute more than $15 trillion to the global economy by 2030.
But with all the money pouring into the AI market these days, there’s a critical piece of the puzzle that’s overlooked – the protection of these costly AI investments from unauthorized access and cyberthreats.
Enter ZPE Systems, a leader in network infrastructure and management solutions that was recently acquired by Legrand. The company announced the launch of two cutting-edge products at Cisco Live in Las Vegas. The Nodegrid Serial Console Core Edition and the Nodegrid Gate SR platform, boasting an embedded NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano™ module, promise to redefine IT resilience in an era plagued by escalating cyber risks.
The Nodegrid Serial Console Core Edition is a sleek, third-generation console server that mitigates the vulnerabilities left by legacy console servers, which many companies around the world still employ today. By leveraging drop-in Isolated Management Infrastructure (IMI), ZPE’s solution ensures that management traffic is fully segregated from production networks. Creating a separate management network in this way establishes a fortress of security against unauthorized access and cyber intrusions.
“The first step in cybersecurity resiliency is proper IT hygiene, starting with the right architecture to remove anxiety from automated patching and recovery,” notes Koroush Saraf, VP of Products and Marketing at ZPE Systems. “The Core Edition simplifies IMI, providing secure, isolated management access from any branch office or remote location via any LAN or WAN link type, including cellular connections. This gives customers a safe environment for patching or configuration rollback even during an outage or cyberattack.”
But here’s the best part of the announcement: IMI, once the exclusive domain of hyperscalers and big tech brands, is now within reach of organizations of all sizes thanks to ZPE Systems. Arnaldo Zimmermann, the dynamic Cofounder of ZPE and VP/GM at Legrand, emphasized: “With the NSCP Core Edition, our goal is to make big tech’s resilience practices accessible and affordable for all organizations. Now, anyone can drop in our Gen 3 console server, create their IMI, and close those vulnerabilities created by their outdated devices.”
But ZPE Systems didn’t stop there. Enter the Nodegrid Gate SR, a game-changer in its own right. Equipped with an embedded NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano™ module, this platform serves as an out-of-band device for initial bring-up, patching, and upgrading when running NVIDIA workloads. The Nodegrid Gate SR offers a dual-CPU platform that uses the same IMI concept for provisioning AI workloads via out-of-band path and allows customers to deploy, manage, and upgrade remotely via ZPE Cloud.
Together, the Nodegrid Serial Console Core Edition and the Nodegrid Gate SR can help IT teams secure their organization’s costly investments in AI infrastructure and workloads. From an infrastructure control perspective, then, ZPE is on a mission to help the world’s organizations unleash the power of AI in a safe and reliable way – a way that will pay off big for its customers as the rest of the year unfolds.
