Lenovo and NVIDIA have unveiled an ambitious expansion of their partnership, setting a new paradigm in generative AI, as announced in a monumental reveal at Lenovo Tech World in Austin, Texas. The collaboration is a shared vision that aims to democratize the transformative capabilities of generative AI across the broad spectrum of enterprises. Brian and Jordan are in attendance to report on the impact of this relationship.

Lenovo’s state-of-the-art offerings are central to this partnership — the ThinkSystem SR675 V3 server and the ThinkStation PX workstation. These powerhouses and NVIDIA’s leading technologies, such as the NVIDIA L40S GPUs, NVIDIA BlueField-3 DPUs, and NVIDIA Spectrum-X networking, are optimized to spearhead the infrastructure behind production AI. The ThinkStation PX enhances AI capability and data center performance at the desktop level.

Lenovo, AMD, and NVIDIA acknowledged and addressed the growing need for private foundational models for enterprises, with emphasis on industries like banking and healthcare. Yuanqing Yang, Chairman and CEO of Lenovo, along with Jensen Huang, Founder and CEO of NVIDIA, talked at the event about the power of the newly announced ThinkSystem built on the NVIDIA modular platform and its significance in getting enterprises the power they need to build multiple AI Models.

Blending Hardware And Software

The system’s design philosophy revolves around seamlessly blending powerful hardware capabilities with agile software functionalities. This creates a robust foundation for enterprises to effectively navigate the complexities of AI implementation and optimization.

Lenovo’s NVIDIA-powered systems are optimized to run NVIDIA AI Enterprise software. This ensures secure, supported, and stable production AI environments. Organizations can utilize the NVIDIA NeMo framework to customize enterprise-grade large language models, thus enabling the creation of generative AI applications optimized for production on Lenovo’s hybrid AI solutions.

In an era where data is ubiquitously generated across many touchpoints ranging from the far edge to the cloud, this partnership is positioned to redefine how enterprises harness the power of their data. With the strategic integration of Lenovo systems and NVIDIA AI Foundations cloud service, businesses can cultivate a hybrid cloud ecosystem. This approach provides a path for enterprises to architect, build, and run bespoke AI models with new agility and precision, thus accelerating the realization of tangible AI-driven outcomes.

A cornerstone of this partnership is the establishment of the Lenovo AI Professional Services Practice. This initiative aspires to facilitate a frictionless journey for enterprises venturing into AI-driven business processes. This service manifests a complete suite of offerings, blending strategic insights with practical solutions, allowing businesses to more easily traverse the trajectory from conceptualization to actualization of their AI objectives.

Lenovo AI Professional Services Practice

To further expedite AI adoption, Lenovo is launching the AI Professional Services Practice and the Lenovo TruScale aaS offering. These empower businesses to easily deploy AI from the data center to the edge and embark on their AI-driven transformations with the flexibility of a pay-as-you-go model.

Lenovo and NVIDIA have plans to develop next-generation systems based on the versatile NVIDIA MGX modular reference design. These systems aim to offer robust and secure solutions for demanding generative AI workloads, facilitating immersive simulations and cognitive decision-making at scale through NVIDIA Omniverse.

This collaboration heralds a new chapter of inclusivity by paving the way for the massive community of VMware customers to seamlessly embrace the wonders of generative AI, underpinned by the sturdy alliance of Lenovo’s solutions with the recently unveiled VMware Private AI Foundation.

In summary, the expanded partnership between Lenovo and NVIDIA brings generative AI within reach for enterprises, offering a comprehensive suite of solutions and services to navigate the AI landscape and implement AI-driven transformations quickly and efficiently.
