The journey from AI experimentation to full-scale production is a significant hurdle for many enterprises. Dell Technologies and NVIDIA are addressing this challenge head-on with a suite of major advancements to the Dell AI Factory with NVIDIA, designed to provide the integrated infrastructure and automation needed to deploy AI applications efficiently and at scale.
Dell Technologies has announced significant advancements to the Dell AI Factory with NVIDIA.
New integrations between Dell ObjectScale/PowerScale and NVIDIA Dynamo accelerate AI inference speeds by 19x.
The Dell Automation Platform is expanded to automate the deployment of full-stack AI workloads.
New server and networking solutions, like the PowerEdge XE8712, offer industry-leading GPU density.
Dell Professional Services now provide turnkey AI use case pilots to validate business value.
These updates aim to reduce complexity and accelerate time-to-value for enterprise AI projects.
A key focus of the new announcements is on simplifying and accelerating the AI deployment process. The Dell Automation Platform is now expanded to the Dell AI Factory, delivering automated deployment of validated, optimized solutions to eliminate guesswork and produce repeatable outcomes. Furthermore, Dell's storage engines, ObjectScale and PowerScale, are now integrated with the NVIDIA NIXL library. This integration enables scalable KV Cache storage, achieving a 1-second Time to First Token and performing 19X faster than standard vLLM while reducing infrastructure costs and overcoming GPU memory bottlenecks.
To power the most demanding AI and high-performance computing (HPC) workloads, Dell is introducing powerful new infrastructure. The Dell PowerEdge XE8712 server, available next month, sets a new standard by delivering the industry’s highest GPU density in a standard rack with up to 144 NVIDIA Blackwell GPUs. This enables next-generation AI and HPC at rack scale. On the networking front, the Enterprise SONiC Distribution by Dell Technologies now supports NVIDIA Spectrum-X platforms, bringing hyperscale networking capabilities to a unified, multi-vendor environment for powerful performance and streamlined management.
Beyond hardware and software, Dell is emphasizing services to help enterprises navigate their AI journey. Dell Professional Services now provide turnkey interactive AI use case pilots using real customer data. These expert-led pilots allow organizations to validate business value and define clear success metrics before making scaled investments, delivering tangible ROI and reducing the risks associated with new technology adoption. Jeff Clarke, vice chairman and chief operating officer of Dell Technologies, stated, “The Dell AI Factory with NVIDIA solves the problem every enterprise is facing: how to move from AI pilots to production without rebuilding their infrastructure."
The continued evolution of the Dell AI Factory with NVIDIA represents a critical step towards mature, production-ready enterprise AI. By combining advanced, integrated infrastructure with intelligent automation and expert guidance, the partnership provides a comprehensive framework for organizations to accelerate outcomes, reduce complexity, and future-proof their data centers for the next generation of workloads.
