Put your data first & enhance your business with ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE

1


AI is used to describe technologies where computers and algorithms make decisions or perform tasks that typically require human intelligence.

Examples include visual perception, speech recognition and predicting customer behavior.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is dramatically altering every industry.And we’re just beginning to tap the potential of these capabilities.

AI initiatives maximize the value of your data and help deliver innovative new products and services to market.

In addition to identifying new revenue streams, AI positively impacts:


There is a perfect storm driving AI demand.

Data growth Compute power

AI innovationScalable, high

performance storage

According to IDC, the global datasphere will reach 163ZB by 2025.2 There is

increased data available to fuel AI — with more generated every second. Most of

this is data is unstructured.

The massively parallel architecture of GPUs and CPUs deliver the computational capacity

required by modern AI for revolutionary breakthroughs in performance.

AI toolkits and skillsets are becoming ubiquitous enabling more organizations to train machines to

use data to sense, learn, reason, make predictions and evolve.

The newest Network Attached Storage technologies store larger datasets and remove I/O bottlenecks, providing data scientists with quick access to data on a higher performing,

larger scale.

ESG surveyed 750 strategic IT Decision Makers about the relationship between their infrastructure modernization efforts and AI initiatives. ESG segmented the respondents into three categories based on their success driving revenue through AI initiatives.

The most successful group of respondents have been categorized as Data Capital Leaders – the 39% of respondents that reported AI initiatives are responsible for more than 10% of total revenue.3

Data Capital Leaders are gaining a competitive advantage by successfully extracting insights from their data through AI and using those insights to enhance customer experience, efficiency, automation, predictive risk management, etc.

A complete, robust AI Infrastructure built on Dell EMC PowerScale is the perfect solution to power and feed your most demanding data hungry algorithms. But what should you do as your data ages and increasing amounts of active data enter your AI pipeline and workflows? An ideal solution would be to tier that data to less costly object storage for backup and archival. This way the data you own stays persistent without filling up your NAS platforms needed to accommodate the newer incoming data pipeline.

This is where Dell EMC ECS comes in. It offers enterprise grade object storage aimed at streamlining your storage infrastructure to gain new insights and power next generation solutions, with the ability to consolidate archives and free up your primary storage. By moving inactive, older data to a low-cost storage tier you can reduce primary storage capacity requirements significantly. And when ECS is added to your AI infrastructure along with Isilon you can auto-tier the cold data from primary to object storage.

Did you know Dell EMC PowerMax has built-in AI and ML capabilities?Modern applications have requirements that conventional All-Flash storage arrays struggle to deliver. The greater the consolidation of workloads on a single array, the higher likelihood of fault domain risks – so platform resiliency is critical.

ML enables PowerMax to maintain service quality throughout a shifting workload mix, and it will optimize data placement between NVMe Flash and Storage Class Memory (SCM) drives.

Built in AI capabilities will automatically recognize I/O profiles and move data in real time to the appropriate media types –enabling it to seamlessly support traditional and modern applications in a single array.
