## What it is

HPE carries a broad server range, and the ProLiant family has been among the most widely
deployed servers anywhere for over thirty years. Configurable for virtualization, AI
workloads, databases, file servers, data management systems or backup storage.

## Lifecycle management

Through HPE Compute Ops Manager the servers are managed centrally from the GreenLake
portal, and firmware and driver updates are planned there rather than host by host.

## What is current

The newest member is the Gen 12 generation, built around Intel's Xeon generation 6. Current
AMD Zen 5 CPUs still fit the Gen 11 architecture and remain available there, which can
decide a purchase.
