As AI moves from experimentation to execution, enterprise leaders are placing greater focus on the infrastructure required to support it at scale. In a recent CRN article on NVIDIA’s two-track data center strategy, NVIDIA President and CEO Jensen Huang said many enterprise companies will need to build AI factories.
He also noted that, in many industrial settings, compute needs to be located where data is created and used. “Many industrial companies, there’s no choice but to put the computer where the context is, where the action is,” Huang said. “You can’t put that in the cloud. It has to respond reliably, quickly every single time.”
The article also includes perspective from GDT Chair and CEO Shawn O’Grady, who described how that shift is taking shape in enterprise infrastructure. “NVIDIA has become the dominant new architecture inside of corporate enterprise infrastructure, but it’s being delivered by the kinds of companies channel partners have all worked with for a long time,” O’Grady said in the article.
As organizations evaluate what it takes to support AI at scale, GDT works with partners such as NVIDIA, Cisco, and NetApp to help customers align accelerated compute, secure networking, intelligent data infrastructure, and lifecycle services in support of AI factory initiatives.
