Hewlett Packard Enterprise said it has acquired Morpheus Data, which makes a hybrid cloud management platform. HPE said Morpheus Data will be used to expand its hybrid cloud features in HPE GreenLake.
In a release, HPE said Morpheus Data will give GreenLake the ability to provision multi-cloud and multi-vendor apps, orchestrate and automate workloads and optimize cloud costs. HPE said the purchase goes along with its acquisition of OpsRamp in 2023.
Constellation Research analyst Andy Thurai said:
"This acquisition will drive HPE's cloud full-stack automation capabilities. Especially it can add multi-cloud automation, automation, FinOps and orchestration on top of the observability capabilities that is being infused with OpsRamp. This is especially important in the hybrid environments where the landscape is still very fragmented."
Brian Wheeler, CEO of Morpheus Data, in a blog post said:
"By joining forces with HPE, we will be able to leverage their extensive resources, industry expertise, and global reach to enhance our ability to deliver even more innovative solutions and better serve our customers."
Morpheus Data will be integrated into HPE GreenLake, HPE's private cloud portfolio and sold as standalone software.
Terms of the deal, which is expected to close in HPE's fiscal fourth quarter, weren't disclosed.
