The promise and complexity of artificial intelligence

The fast-paced present has turned Artificial Intelligence (AI) into an important tool for business. How to get started with AI and where is the best place to invest?

According to the results of numerous studies, the following challenges have been posed in the implementation of AI:

• Security and reliability – the majority of respondents need and plan measures to enhance data protection and ensure Disaster Recovery.
• Use of AI outside the data center core, in the Edge (on the periphery) – more than 80% of respondents plan to increase investments in the AI development strategy for its use directly in their departments, and not just in the Data Center.
• IT Infrastructure upgrade – the existing IT infrastructure was not built for AI, meaning it is time for a significant upgrade.

Nutanix has created its artificial intelligence solution – Nutanix GPT-in-a-Box. The solution provides a unified platform for secure, end-to-end experience with programs, data, and AI models that can be deployed and used from the core to the edge. It provides the following benefits:

• Enterprise data services and security. Nutanix offers integrated enterprise data services and protection services for data and AI models to ensure your data is always under your control and your business is always online.
• Simplification of operation. Artificial intelligence is a team effort that blurs the boundaries and reduces the distance between data analysts, development specialists and the infrastructure operations team. Nutanix provides a cloud-native operating model that makes it easy, fast, and secure to access applications, workloads, and data.
• Rational transformation of artificial intelligence. AI should be as adaptive and accessible as possible. With Nutanix, you can purchase, create, or modify artificial intelligence models and data from any source and apply it wherever your business or military needs it.
• Lowest Total Cost of Ownership (TCO). AI should not burden an organization’s budget. Nutanix reduces total cost of ownership through automation, dynamic resource provisioning, and consolidation for optimal infrastructure utilization.
