The Dell PowerEdge XE9680 with AMD Instinct MI300X accelerators and Dell Validated Design for Generative AI with AMD will be available in the first half of 2024.
Dell and AMD are coming together to expand the Dell Generative AI (GenAI) Solutions portfolio. This new technology highlights a pivotal role played by open ecosystems and silicon diversity in empowering customers with simple, trusted and tailored solutions to bring AI to their data.
GenAI is the decade’s most promising accelerator for innovation with 78% of IT decision makers reporting they’re largely excited for the potential GenAI can have on their organizations. Harnessing this technology is critical to ensure organizations can compete in this new digital era. Together with AMD, Dell can offer customers more choice to power their AI and GenAI workloads than before.
“Technology is at an inflection point as powerful IT systems are making it possible for AI to transform how enterprises and industries operate. Today’s computing makes this possible in ways the world’s not seen before. Through our longstanding AMD relationship, we are empowering customers with greater flexibility in trusted and tailored solutions to power their AI and generative AI workloads,” Arthur Lewis, president, Infrastructure Solutions Group, Dell Technologies.
