Recently, NVIDIA joined hands with VMware to deliver a powerful AI-Ready Enterprise Platform. Today, the chip manufacturing giant announced NVIDIA AI Enterprise, which is a comprehensive software suite of enterprise-grade AI tools and frameworks. More specifically, the NVIDIA AI Enterprise software suite is an end-to-end cloud-native suite of AI tools and frameworks, optimised and exclusively certified by NVIDIA to run on VMware vSphere.

NVIDIA AI Enterprise is a comprehensive suite of enterprise-grade AI tools and frameworks that optimize business processes and boost efficiency for a broad range of key industries, including manufacturing, logistics, financial services, retail and healthcare. With NVIDIA AI Enterprise, scientists and AI researchers have easy access to NVIDIA’s leading AI tools to power AI development across projects ranging from advanced diagnostics, smart factories, fraud detection and more.

According to sources, th platform will give enterprises the software required to develop a broad range of AI solutions, such as advanced diagnostics in healthcare, smart factories for manufacturing, and fraud detection in financial services.

Justin Boitano, vice president and general manager of Enterprise and Edge Computing at NVIDIA stated, “Until now, the world has run AI on bare-metal servers. NVIDIA AI Enterprise enables customers to reduce AI model development time from 80 weeks to just eight weeks, and allows them to deploy and manage advanced AI applications on VMware vSphere with the same scale-out, record-breaking NVIDIA accelerated computing performance that’s possible on bare metal.”

With the NVIDIA AI Enterprise software suite, IT professionals that use vSphere for compute virtualisation can now support AI with the same tools they use to manage large-scale data centres and hybrid cloud environments. The NVIDIA software suite provides scale-out, multi-node, AI application performance on vSphere that is indistinguishable from bare-metal servers.

Lee Caswell, vice president of marketing for the Cloud Platform Business Unit at VMware said, “Every enterprise is exploring how to modernise their infrastructure to meet the demands of AI applications.” Caswell added, “With NVIDIA AI Enterprise and vSphere 7 Update 2, VMware customers are now able to fast-track AI in their virtualised data centres and easily deploy certified, AI-ready infrastructure for their modern apps.”
