Comcast Business has launched the Comcast Business Innovation Lab, a dedicated environment where the company, its customers, and leading technology partners co-develop, test, and scale enterprise solutions. The Lab debuts with three inaugural programs developed in collaboration with Dell Technologies, Digital Realty, and Expedient.
Modern enterprises operate across continents, devices, and platforms while running real-time applications, AI-intensive workloads, and managing persistent security threats. The Innovation Lab was created to address these realities by enabling collaborative development in live environments.
"Enterprise network design has become one of the most consequential technology decisions a company makes," said Bob Victor, Chief Product Officer, Comcast Business. "AI is compressing timelines, multiplying complexity, and raising the stakes for every infrastructure decision. The Comcast Business Innovation Lab is one way we stay ahead of that – in live environments, alongside real partners and customers, with real accountability for results."
The Lab launches with three targeted programs aligned to critical layers of enterprise architecture:
Dell Technologies – Managed Edge Compute for AI and Real-Time Operations Working with Dell Technologies, the program extends managed compute to the far edge using Dell PowerEdge servers and Dell NativeEdge platform. It enables enterprises to run AI and real-time applications locally for improved responsiveness, resiliency, and cost management while reducing dependence on centralized cloud resources.
Digital Realty – Seamless Hybrid and Multi-Cloud Connectivity In collaboration with Digital Realty, the Lab introduces Data Center Fabric Services via ServiceFabric®. This open “fabric of fabrics” enables secure connections to any provider without complex buildouts, simplifying procurement and providing a unified experience for hybrid and multi-cloud environments.
Expedient – Managed Infrastructure Services for AI and Mission-Critical Workloads Through Expedient, the program delivers integrated managed infrastructure including Secure AI CTRL services for AI operations, private cloud environments, and managed disaster recovery for mission-critical applications.
These programs advance Comcast Business’s position as a unified orchestrator of connectivity, compute, and infrastructure services for enterprises.
