Lenovo has released a new suite of services and solutions designed to fast-track AI transformation by making private AI accessible to every business. Paving the way to ‘Smarter AI for All’, the new services bring on-demand AI to the customer, helping any business use its on-prem proprietary data to build, scale and evolve generative AI. With the new solutions, businesses can build, scale and evolve private AI faster with GPU resources on demand, AI-driven systems management and advanced liquid cooling services.
Generative AI is increasingly a top investment priority for enterprises. The latest, fully integrated services and solutions empower teams with the procurement, deployment and management of the IT technology they need to innovate across any industry, leveraging AI to automate tasks, enhance customer service, and provide insights for streamlining business operations. In partnering with Lenovo, businesses can quickly apply AI to their IT infrastructure to boost productivity, security and agility while efficiently managing the increased data centre performance that AI demands.
“Adopting an as-a-service approach and applying the right AI-powered infrastructure reduces the complexities of implementing a comprehensive AI strategy while supporting sustainability outcomes across the entire organization, from data centres to edge devices,” said Vlad Rozanovich, senior vice president, Lenovo Infrastructure Solutions Group. “With Lenovo’s new AI services and solutions, we bring the AI to you. Businesses experience cost efficiency and flexibility in their AI integration, with the simplicity of a scalable, pay-as-you-go solution that ignites innovation and helps ensure they stay ahead of the competition.”
Greg Smith, executive director and general manager, EMEA Solutions and Services Group, Lenovo, commented, “AI investment is increasingly a major priority for business leaders, but the upfront investment and expertise needed can make it inaccessible. With our new suite of AI-powered services we are breaking down barriers to AI adoption by delivering flexible, scalable solutions that meet the unique demands of enterprises. By offering on-demand, scalable, AI resources and simplifying infrastructure management, Lenovo is a trusted partner helping organisations harness AI to drive innovation, optimise operations, and support their sustainability goals.”
AI and machine learning workloads require GPUs to speed up data processing for model development and inferencing but can be costly and difficult for organisations to procure. Lenovo is taking as-a-service to a smarter level with Lenovo TruScale GPUaaS, delivering fast GPU power on demand through the simplicity of a scalable, pay-as-you go model. Delivered as an enhancement to Lenovo TruScale for HPC solutions, the service gives organisations immediate, scalable access to critical AI and HPC technology while eliminating the traditional barriers of cost and complexity.
Lenovo TruScale GPUaaS offers metered NVIDIA GPU resources and orchestration through its Intelligent Computer Orchestration (LiCO) technology, which provides workload management and scheduling. This enables consumption and costs to be managed for each specific workload, allowing multiple separate organizations to effectively share the GPU resources. Lenovo TruScale GPUaaS will be available for a wide range of NVIDIA Tensor Core GPU options, including NVIDIA H100 and NVIDIA L40S.
Lenovo TruScale GPUaaS can meet each business where their needs are, whether on-prem or in a colocation. This accelerates the availability of NVIDIA GPUs to enable rapid real-world innovation, making AI use cases in the enterprise more accessible for everyone.
