Dell Tech­no­lo­gies Validated Design for AI, geza­men­lijk ontwik­keld met VMware en NVIDIA, levert de volgende generatie AI-geba­seerde appli­ca­ties zoals model­le­ring en stelt IT-profes­si­o­nals in staat op een consis­tente manier AI toe te passen in gevir­tu­a­li­seerde omgevingen.

Uitgebreide aankondiging

In het onder­staande Engels­talig pers­be­richt ontdekt u meer over de nieuwste ontwikkelingen:

“Orga­ni­za­tions are incre­a­singly relying on multiple clouds and other emerging tech­no­lo­gies to remain compe­ti­tive in today’s demanding business climate, with more than 90% of enter­prises expected to rely on a mix of private clouds, various public clouds and existing infra­struc­ture within the next year,” said Jeff Boudreau, president and general manager of Dell Tech­no­lo­gies Infra­struc­ture Solutions Group. “Today’s announ­ce­ment rein­forces the value Dell and VMware offer together and further demon­strates our commit­ment to deli­ve­ring tech­no­lo­gies that simplify how orga­ni­za­tions can use tech­no­logy to capi­ta­lize on a data-driven, always-on economy regard­less of where appli­ca­tions and data reside.”

APEX Cloud Services with VMware Cloud helps customers simplify their multi-cloud journey 

Dell Tech­no­lo­gies APEX Cloud Services with VMware Cloud provides secure and consis­tent opera­tions across multi-cloud envi­ron­ments. The new Infra­struc­ture-as-a-Service offering gives orga­ni­za­tions the ability to move workloads across multiple cloud envi­ron­ments and scale resources quickly with predic­table pricing and transpa­rent costs. To help orga­ni­za­tions safeguard their data and avoid potential threats to their business, the dell-managed offering assists orga­ni­za­tions to meet local regu­la­tory requi­re­ments and helps protect them from malicious attacks with built-in cyber resi­li­ency. Built on infra­struc­ture that delivers 99.9999% availability1 and offers a time-to-value for the initial deploy­ment in as few as 14 days.

Using the APEX Console, orga­ni­za­tions can subscribe to, monitor and optimize the service. For many common workloads, Dell has precon­fi­gured cloud instances, making it easier for customers to get started. Orga­ni­za­tions can deploy APEX Cloud Services with VMware Cloud in their data­center, at an edge location or co-location facility with partners such as Equinix.

“APEX Cloud Services with VMware Cloud is a compel­ling offering that will make it easier for orga­ni­za­tions to quickly deploy appli­ca­tion ready infra­struc­ture,” said Steven Kouvo, Core Tech­no­logy Service Group for Boston Scientific.

The offering can be used with VMware Tanzu, allowing customers to build, test and run cloud-native appli­ca­tions alongside tradi­ti­onal appli­ca­tions. Customers can migrate workloads across multiple clouds with VMware HCX, included in the service, which elimi­nates the need to re-architect appli­ca­tions for different cloud environments.

“As customers digitize their busi­nesses with both enter­prise and modern apps, they expect their infra­struc­ture to deliver cloud-like simpli­city regard­less of where it runs,” said Mark Lohmeyer, senior vice president and general manager, Cloud Infra­struc­ture Business Group, VMware. “Dell Tech­no­lo­gies APEX Cloud Services with VMware Cloud helps customers achieve cloud simpli­city and enter­prise-class security and opera­tions. The service brings the power of co-engi­nee­ring between Dell Tech­no­lo­gies and VMware to help customers adopt more agile and flexible cloud infra­struc­ture to drive better business outcomes.”

ObjectScale software speeds innovation and drives down costs

Dell EMC ObjectS­cale software allows orga­ni­za­tions to run next-gene­ra­tion, Amazon S3-compa­tible object storage alongside virtual machines, helping lower devel­op­ment costs and drive appli­ca­tion inno­va­tion. Dell Tech­no­lo­gies and VMware bring Kuber­netes-native, software-defined object storage to VMware vSphere with Tanzu and the vSAN Data Persis­tence Platform. By providing devel­o­pers with self-service storage in a private cloud operating model, ObjectS­cale helps IT manage and scale with ease using familiar VMware tools.

ObjectS­cale also extends the reach of Dell EMC VxRail to power modern workloads such as AI, analytics and cloud-native appli­ca­tions that require S3. oupled with VxRail, the ObjectS­cale software allows IT staff to apply their existing skills with VMware tools to support the cloud-native storage modern appli­ca­tions require. Customers gain the benefit of a jointly engi­neered solution set between VMware, VxRail and ObjectS­cale to speed digital transformation.

“As an ObjectS­cale Early Access program parti­ci­pant, we are confident our customers will value the ability to deploy rich, S3-compa­tible, software-defined object storage wherever they need it, directly from the VMware vCenter interface,” said Carl D’Halluin, chief tech­no­logy officer at Datadobi. “Our solutions Dobi­Mi­grate and Dobi­Pro­tect enhance ObjectS­cale with powerful migration and protec­tion capa­bi­li­ties to simplify, automate, and protect customer’s most important asset – their data.”

Validated Design for AI applies artificial intelligence to virtualized environments 

Dell Tech­no­lo­gies Validated Design for AI delivers the next gene­ra­tion of AI-powered appli­ca­tions like modeling and allows IT profes­si­o­nals to apply a consis­tent approach to AI in virtu­a­lized envi­ron­ments. Using the NVIDIA AI Enter­prise software suite running on NVIDIA-Certified Systems, this industry-first offering between Dell, VMware and NVIDIA delivers a AI-ready enter­prise platform. Dell Tech­no­lo­gies Validated Design for AI allows orga­ni­za­tions to quickly and easily apply AI to data — speeding confi­gu­ra­tion and inte­gra­tion by up to 20%2. The validated design is available on Dell EMC VxRail, PowerS­cale and PowerSwitch.

“Making AI acces­sible to enter­prises requires an optimized, full-stack solution that inte­grates seam­lessly with the infra­struc­ture and ecosys­tems IT teams use every day,” said Manuvir Das, head of Enter­prise Computing at NVIDIA. “Dell Tech­no­lo­gies Validated Design for AI brings together the leading tech­no­lo­gies of NVIDIA, VMware and Dell. It enables enter­prises to run demanding AI workloads across hybrid clouds, using familiar VMware mana­ge­ment and auto­ma­tion tools.”

The latest offerings build on Dell’s announ­ce­ment of Dell EMC Smart­Fa­bric Storage Software.Speeding the tran­si­tion to next gene­ra­tion IT Infra­struc­ture, Smart­Fa­bric Storage Software will allow orga­ni­za­tions tran­si­tion to high-perfor­mance, low latency and cost-effective IP-based storage area networks.
