Accelerate your Business with ThinkAgile HX AI-Ready Solutions

The demand and growth of AI applications and workloads across the world have been remarkable. Within the realm of AI, generative AI takes center stage, designed to generate fresh data, multimedia, images, code, and various other content without the need for explicit human intervention.

These techniques harness deep learning algorithms, learning from extensive datasets to recognize patterns and produce new content reminiscent of the original data.

This becomes crucial as organizations endeavor to harness the extensive data they accumulate each day, making AI applications an imperative component for the construction of a proficient data-driven enterprise.

In addition to numerous other applications, use cases include:

• Video and multimedia content generation
• Customer service chatbots
• Translation services
• Software programming and testing
• Computer vision and verification systems
• Optimization of medical device designs

Lenovo and Nutanix have nurtured a strong partnership since 2015, resulting in 9 generations of ThinkAgile HX solutions. Lenovo is first to market by consistently introducing most of the latest CPU generations from Intel® and AMD®, offering 18 GPU-enabled ThinkAgile HX models.

Lenovo’s ThinkAgile HX Series appliances represent a top tier hyperconverged system, featuring Nutanix’s cutting-edge software pre-installed on Lenovo server platforms. The HX Series seamlessly combines computing, virtualization, and storage into a robust, software defined solution, capable of handling diverse workloads, whether at scale or in the cloud.

Tailored for all virtual or container applications, these appliances offer exceptional reliability, robust security, scalable performance, simplified management, and rapid time-to-value.

Simultaneously, they drive down total cost of ownership (TCO), freeing up your IT team to focus on innovation and delivering business value.

Lenovo and Nutanix work together to build innovative solutions for AI use cases with efforts to create more solutions to operate advanced scenarios. The ThinkAgile HX solutions powered by NVIDIA GPUs are validated to accelerate the time to value and meet customer requirements across all business verticals.

In hyperconverged environments the integration of AI marks a significant leap in enterprise computing capabilities. From content generation and natural language interaction to content style imitation and even predictive analytics, enterprises can leverage artificial intelligence for a wide range of applications.

Inferencing in AI is the process of making predictions and decisions and generating output based on a trained model, applied to large data sets including new ones. For example, if models are trained to identify plants in images, AI inferencing will help in automatically identifying plants in new images that’s it’s never seen before.

AI Inferencing on ThinkAgile HX integrates advanced AI into core business processes.

NVIDIA AI Enterprise is a high-performance, secure, cloud-native AI software platform built with enterprise-grade security, stability, manageability, and support for creating and deploying AI models.
