Dell Technologies boosts AI adoption with new Dell EMC AI Experience Zones
Dell Technologies announced in partnership with Intel, the launch of Dell EMC AI Experience Zones in Bangalore, Seoul, Singapore, Sydney, and Tokyo. A space dedicated to knowledge sharing, the zones offer visitors an immersive AI experience, serving as a catalyst for AI understanding and adoption amongst organisations in the Asia Pacific & Japan (APJ) region.
According to Dell Technologies’ Digital Transformation Index, AI is amongst the top spending priorities for business leaders in the APJ region; one in two leaders plans to invest in AI in the next one to three years as part of their digital strategy. However, 95 percent of companies are still experiencing transformation roadblocks, one of which is lack of in-house skill sets and expertise.
Built within existing Dell EMC Customer Solution Centres, the new Dell EMC AI Experience Zones are open to customers and partners looking to gain a comprehensive understanding of AI technologies and advancements, as well as practical, hands-on AI solutions design and deployment experience. The AI Experience Zones will showcase how the Dell EMC High-Performance Computing (HPC) and AI ecosystem can be used to address business challenges and opportunities today across a wide range of industries.
The AI Experience Zones technology demonstrations, leveraging the Dell EMC HPC portfolio, will illustrate how sample data sets are processed and inferred upon and how industry-leading Dell EMC solution stacks powered by Intel Xeon Scalable processors come together to provide powerful AI-led experiences.
Aimed at providing access to Dell EMC’s AI expertise and technology across the region, the AI Experience Zones place a strong emphasis on simplifying AI deployments for customers. Through masterclass training, AI expert engagements, and collaboration opportunities available on-site, customers are guided through the necessary steps to kick-start AI initiatives including design, installation, maintenance and, most importantly, delivering tangible business outcomes for their organisations.
Chris Kelly, vice president, Infrastructure Solutions Group, Dell EMC, APJ, says, “The timely adoption of AI will create new opportunities that will deliver concrete business advantages across all industries and business functions. Companies looking to thrive in a data drive era need to understand that investments in AI are no longer optional – they are business critical. Whilst complex in nature, it is imperative that companies quickly start moving from theoretical AI strategies to practical deployments to stay ahead of the curve.”
All five AI Experience Zones will provide product demonstrations, training, and pilots for both Dell EMC customers and its ecosystem of partners across the region.
The AI Experience Zones will include the latest generation Dell EMC PowerEdge servers paired with several advanced, open source AI software developed by Intel such as OpenVINO toolkit as well as Dell EMC networking and storage technologies, providing AI solutions that simplify system design, speeding the path to AI with the confidence of scalable designs, proven in our labs and through customer deployments to meet workload requirements and customer outcomes.
