Dell Technologies and NVD Introduce Project Helix for Secure, On-Premise AI

• Project Helix makes it easy for enterprises to build and deploy trusted generator AI

• Dell and NVIDIA infrastructure and software include built-in data security for on-premise AI applications

Dell Technologies World–Dell Technologies (NYSE: DELL) and NVIDIA (NASDAQ: NVDA) announced a joint initiative to make it easier for businesses to quickly and securely build and deploy better customer service, market intelligence, enterprise search and on-premises generative AI models. A range of other skills.

Project Helix offers a series of full-stack solutions based on Dell and NVIDIA infrastructure and software with technical expertise and pre-built tools. It includes a complete blueprint to help enterprises leverage their proprietary data and easily deploy generative AI responsibly and accurately.

“Project Helix provides enterprises with purpose-built AI models that can be used quickly and securely from vast amounts of data to provide untapped value today,” said Jeff Clark, vice chairman and chief operating officer, Dell Technologies. “With a highly scalable and efficient infrastructure, enterprises can create new generative AI solutions that will transform their industries.”

“We’re at a historic moment in time where incredible advances in generative AI are meeting enterprise demand,” said Jensen Huang, founder and CEO of NVD. “At Dell Technologies, we’ve designed a highly efficient and agile infrastructure that enables enterprises to transform their business by securely using their own data to build and run creative AI applications.”

Project Helix simplifies enterprise developer AI deployments with a combination of tested optimized hardware and software, all available from Dell. This provides the power to transform enterprise data into intelligent, high-value results while protecting data privacy. These solutions help companies rapidly deploy custom AI applications that drive trusted decisions from their own data to grow and scale their businesses.

Design for generative AI on campus

Project Helix supports the complete generative AI life cycle – from infrastructure provisioning, modeling, training, optimization, application development and deployment, conclusion deployment, and streamlining results. Proven designs help enterprises quickly build generative AI infrastructure on-premises.

Dell PowerEdge servers as PowerEdge XE9680 and PowerEdge R760xaThey are optimized to provide performance for generative AI training and AI inference. A combination of Dell servers NVIDIA® H100 Tensor Core GPUs And NVIDIA Network Create the infrastructure backbone for these workloads. Customers can use this infrastructure to build and expand unstructured data storage, incl Dell PowerScale And Dell ECS Enterprise Object Storage.

With all Dell certified designs, customers can take advantage of the enterprise features of Dell server and storage software through Dell CloudIQ software. Project Helix also includes NVIDIA AI Enterprise Software to provide tools to customers as they move through the AI ​​lifecycle. NVIDIA AI Enterprise offers more than 100 frameworks, pre-trained models, and NVIDIA NeMo™ large language modeling framework and Nemo Guardrails Software to build up-to-date, safe and secure generator AI chatbots.

Project Helix includes security and privacy built into core components such as secure entity authentication. Keeping data on-premises reduces natural risk and helps companies meet regulatory requirements.

“Companies are eager to explore the opportunities that generative AI tools can bring to their organizations, but many are unsure of how to get started,” said Bob O’Donnell, president and chief analyst at Technologist Research. “By integrating a complete hardware and software solution from trusted products, Dell Technologies and NVIDIA are giving enterprises a head start in building and refining AI-powered models to leverage their own company’s unique assets and create powerful, customized tools.

Availability

Dell certified designs based on the Project Helix initiative will be available through traditional channels and APEX flexible consumption options from July 2023.
