From Modern Data Centers to Space-based Computing, KIOXIA and HPE Advance High-Performance Storage Solutions for Next-Generation Workloads
Next week at HPE Discover 2026, KIOXIA America, Inc. will demonstrate how its industry-leading flash storage solutions are helping modernize IT infrastructures across cloud, AI, and hybrid environments – from edge deployments to the data center and outer space through the HPE Spaceborne Computer program.
A recognized innovator in flash storage and SSD technologies, KIOXIA continues to drive advancements in enterprise infrastructure through industry technologies including PCIe® 5.0, Enterprise and Datacenter Standard Form Factor (EDSFF), and 24G SAS (SAS-4). These innovations deliver higher performance, increased storage density, and improved power efficiency over previous generations – helping customers accelerate workloads and support initiatives to reduce storage footprint and reduce power per GB.
As a longtime HPE collaborator, KIOXIA supports HPE’s mission of data-first modernization from the edge to the cloud and AI. KIOXIA’s SSD solutions help to optimize a broad range of HPE platforms spanning enterprise servers, storage, mobile computing, and modern data center environments.
At this year’s event, KIOXIA will also highlight its contributions to HPE’s Spaceborne Computer missions, including projects aboard the International Space Station (ISS) and future lunar exploration efforts. KIOXIA SSDs provide the high-performance storage capabilities required to support advanced scientific research and edge computing in extreme environments.
“Enterprises are dealing with an unprecedented mix of data-intensive workloads that demand both scale and consistency,” said Neville Ichhaporia, senior vice president and general manager of the KIOXIA SSD Business Unit. “At HPE Discover Las Vegas 2026, we’re highlighting how KIOXIA and HPE are helping customers keep pace with those demands through storage technologies designed to deliver strong performance and efficiency across environments as diverse as modern data centers and computing in outer space.”
KIOXIA will demonstrate its latest technologies in booth #1011 at the Venetian® Conference and Expo Center in Las Vegas from June 15-18.
