In addition to "edge computing"Bright Cluster Manager 8.2 will Bring lots of quality of life improvements with respect to deploying large scale influencing architectures. Less time "gluing" technologies together, and more time for working on extracting insights from the data.

NVIDIA and Dell EMC have partnered together to build the Ready Solution for Deep Learning. Powered by NVIDIA Tesla V100-SXM2 Tensor Core GPUs. With 640 tensor cores, the Tesla V1
00 was the first to break the 100 tereFLOPS barrier for deep learning performance.

Most orgs begin with one or a couple of nodes - later on, they will scale out. Bright Cluster Manager will make managing and monitoring scale easy

#Wikibon Key for deciding where to place it is where the data is. Moving AI compute to where the data is is must more cost effective and latency effective.

there is a massive need to reduce time-to-value right now - a majority of organizations are taking over a year to see value in their AI/ML initiatives. Solutions that can reduce that time and validate it with public case studies will quickly be put on the short list.

There are lots of ways to improve time-to-value in the #AI workflow. Our work in the @DellEMC #HPC and #AI Innovation Lab on distributed #deeplearning can help with one part of the process: https://community.em...

Amazon has a similar lab environment for partners and customers who want to leverage their AI technologies. For new partners how is the Dell EMC experience differentiated?

Sorry hit send too soon, we can work with partners on the use case, choosing the correct framework and libraries. Plus, we can help you understand how to get that AI workload into production at scale.

Thanks, I would like to evangelize this offering to our partners, many of whom are keen to mine data, but don’t know how to get started. The idea of an AI bundled solution eliminates a major hurdle, however, a cost analysis of this versus AWS or Azure would help. Got one?

Mike Leone
infrastructure cost and lack of trained staff serve as the big roadblocks right now

Dave Vellante
.@plburris The new innovation cocktail = Data + #AI + Cloud scale so constraints are primarily data quality & accessibility (i.e. no stovepipes), AI skills & resources (talent)...access to cloud scale is pretty much table stakes by now but the other two are significant barriers

David Floyer
AI is a new technology, and needs to be tested first in relatively bounded applications

Varun Chhabra
@dfloyer agreed. Organizations are at various stages of the AI adoption journey, but almost all start with some sort of sandboxed environment at first.

Philip Hummel
@dfloyer Starting with a really well defined use case, usually a piece of software is so important.

It's actually a set of technologies with long vintage. What's new about AI is the extent to which it's been deployed into operational business applications and infrastructure, and the extent to which it's the core focus of developers for all types of disruptive apps

@dvellante Access to automation throughout the AI pipeline is as critical as cloud-scale. It's all about speeding up the DevOps cycle for these AI-driven apps, bringing greater consistency, industrializing the process 24x7 in enterprise development/IT shops.
