Powered by Knowledge – Reflections from HPE Tech Jam 2026

The nLogic team participated at HPE Tech Jam 2026 in the beginning of February with engineers both from Norway, Sweden and Denmark.

With Juniper Networks now officially part of HPE following the acquisition, this year’s event marked a significant milestone — and nLogic’s first-ever appearance at Tech Jam. Here’s a look at our highlights from the ground in Austria.

The Scale: HPE Tech Jam Was Massive

The event space was truly staggering. To give you an idea of the sheer volume of content, there were easily 6–8 different sessions happening every hour for 5 consecutive days.

With so many parallel tracks, it was important for us to focus on the sessions most relevant for our customers across the Nordics: networking and infrastructure.

The event has also been a good way to enforce our competencies expanding our technical certifications or recertify existing knowledge.

Focus: Juniper and the HPE Integration

While Tech Jam covers the entire HPE ecosystem, our mission was clear: Juniper products and services — now an integrated part of the HPE portfolio. The acquisition is already creating new opportunities, particularly within:

• Full stack possibilities: Bringing both compute, storage and networking into combined solutions where Junipers datacenter, WAN edge and security portfolio plays a central part.

• AI-Native Networking: With NVIDIA as a main sponsor, the AI sessions were top-tier. Seeing the synergy between NVIDIA’s hardware and HPE’s infrastructure combined with Juniper’s AI-driven networking approach gave a clear signal of where the data center is heading.

• Automation: Many sessions focused on reducing operational complexity through self-healing networks and automated workflows. The combination of HPE’s infrastructure capabilities and Juniper’s Mist AI platform shows strong potential for simplifying operations while improving performance and reliability.

For us at nLogic, this is where it becomes practical. Our Juniper-certified experts work hands-on with these solutions — from architecture and design to deployment and optimization. Bringing these insights back home means we can better support our customers as the HPE and Juniper portfolios come together.

Beyond the Tech

A conference is only as good as the people you meet. Between the deep technical sessions, we enjoyed:

• Fantastic Austrian hospitality complimented by HPE representatives from the nordic countries.
• Catching up with long-time partners.
• Building new relationships we look forward to developing further.

HPE Tech Jam 2026 clearly showed that the HPE and Juniper story is more than a headline. With Juniper now part of HPE, the combined portfolio creates new possibilities for customers — and we’re ready to help turn that into real solutions.
