HPE has bolstered its cloud consulting capabilities with the acquisition of London-based RedPixie, now part of technology services organisation HPE Pointnext.

In a blog post Ana Pinczuk, SVP and GM, HPE Pointnext, said: "To further strengthen our hybrid IT consulting capabilities and build on our recent acquisition of Cloud Technology Partners, we acquired RedPixie, a UK-based provider of cloud consulting, application development and migration services for enterprises looking to move workloads to public cloud.

"Since its start in 2010, RedPixie's team of business consultants, cloud architects and data scientists have been focused on understanding client challenges and designing solutions that drive digital transformation. They have helped their customers migrate legacy systems to the cloud, speed up the adoption of data analytics, and drive cost-cutting while accelerating time to market and increasing agility.

"Today, RedPixie has significant customer traction, with particular strength among leading financial services, insurance and healthcare companies, including KPMG, Hiscox, and Care UK."
