Cohesity, HPE Expand Strategic Alliance to Deliver Industry‑Leading Cyber Resilience, Hybrid Cloud Solutions
Helping Customers Improve Cyber Resilience, Simplify Hybrid Cloud Operations, and Recover Faster From Disruption
Cohesity, the leader in AI‑powered data security, has announced a significant expansion to its seven‑year strategic collaboration with HPE to further help customers improve cyber resilience, simplify hybrid cloud operations, and recover faster from disruption. The enhanced alliance introduces new resell agreements, deepens technical integrations, and strengthens joint go‑to‑market execution.
Together, HPE and Cohesity are aligning infrastructure, data protection, and recovery into a more comprehensive portfolio, enabling organisations to operate with greater confidence across on‑premises, cloud, and edge environments.
HPE and Cohesity Joint Offerings and Technology Integration
- Cohesity to resell HPE Zerto Software Cohesity will begin reselling HPE Zerto, offering customers continuous data protection (CDP) and near‑instant recovery for virtualised and cloud workloads. By combining Zerto’s ultra‑low RPO and RTO recovery with Cohesity’s AI‑powered data security and cyber recovery platform, customers can protect applications continuously and recover rapidly from ransomware and operational outages.
- HPE to resell Cohesity DataProtect and Cohesity NetBackup: HPE will continue to resell Cohesity DataProtect as a modern data protection platform with purpose‑built HPE storage and compute servers. In addition, HPE will begin reselling Cohesity NetBackup, optimised for deployment with modern, disaggregated backup and storage architectures, including HPE Alletra Storage MP X10000 and HPE StoreOnce systems.
- Deepened integration with HPE Morpheus VM Essentials Software for virtualisation and unified cloud management: Cohesity will deepen integration and enhance support for HPE Morpheus VM Essentials and HPE Morpheus Enterprise Software, ensuring enterprises are ready to deploy Cohesity solutions with HPE’s virtualisation and unified cloud management offerings. Availability is planned for mid‑2026.
Strengthening a Proven Strategic Alliance
“This collaboration puts HPE and Cohesity in pole position to bring even more powerful and integrated cyber‑resilient solutions to our customers,” said Sanjay Poonen, CEO and President, Cohesity. “Enterprises everywhere want to confidently and quickly protect and recover their most critical data, and that’s precisely what we’re going to enable by pairing HPE’s trusted hybrid cloud infrastructure with Cohesity’s AI‑powered data security platform.”
“Together, Cohesity and HPE are helping organisations modernise data protection while improving resilience and operational efficiency across hybrid and multicloud environments,” said Fidelma Russo, Executive Vice President and General Manager, Hybrid Cloud, and CTO, HPE. “This collaboration supports a simplified hybrid cloud operating model that secures and manages data wherever it lives, with greater performance and flexibility.”
“Across ASEAN, organisations are prioritising cyber resilience as a business imperative, not just a technical one. Customers need solutions that help them protect critical data, recover with confidence, and maintain continuity in increasingly complex hybrid environments,” said Lim Hsin Yin, Vice President of Sales, ASEAN Region, Cohesity. “Our expanded collaboration with HPE brings together Cohesity’s AI‑powered data security and cyber resilience capabilities with HPE’s hybrid cloud expertise, helping customers simplify operations, strengthen protection, and respond faster when it matters most.”
To underscore the momentum of the relationship, HPE recently secured one of the most significant federal hybrid cloud modernisation initiatives in the United States with the Defence Information Systems Agency (DISA). DISA selected HPE to deploy a secure, sovereign cloud architecture leveraging HPE GreenLake with integrated data protection capabilities. The solution unifies fragmented legacy environments into a modern, cyber‑resilient hybrid cloud supporting multiple security domains. Cohesity provides data protection and cyber resilience capabilities across the platform.
This programme represents a long‑term, large‑scale agreement awarded to HPE, with Cohesity delivering data protection capabilities through a flexible, consumption‑based model aligned with HPE GreenLake. The selection establishes Cohesity as a key provider of data protection capabilities for the programme.
