Validated AI Performance With Dell And AMD
As AI reshapes the tech landscape, AI-powered data centers are becoming a cornerstone of modern IT infrastructure. Dell’s new AMD AI validated designs, featuring AMD EPYC processors with advanced inference capabilities, help businesses accelerate their AI journey and drive innovation.
David Melendrez, account manager for AMD EPYC Processors at AMD, highlights AMD's unique offerings.
“When you look at what AMD now has, we're really the only silicon provider that offers both a CPU for AI as well as a GPU for AI. So now you have this spectrum of capability,” Melendrez said.
Generative AI solutions with AMD help customers in three keyways: streaming AI workflows, reducing risk in buying decisions, and simplifying configuration—so teams can stay focused on outcomes. Dell's validation process plays a critical role in this.
Allen Clingerman, chief technology strategist for PowerEdge+High Performance Architecture at Dell Technologies, explains the importance of Dell's validation process.
“When we think about this end-to-end of those three things, our validation process really includes very comprehensive testing, far beyond what you think about from an infrastructure perspective to optimize model configurations and help our mutual customers save time from having to experiment on some of those,” Clingerman said. “We've done all the testing, so our customers don't have to experiment, helping them achieve a faster time to value.”
With so much emerging technology, the real challenge is choosing the solution that best aligns with business goals—and today, there's no shortage of options.
“If it was inference and CPU capability, we've got you covered. If it's large language models and you need a great headnode, well that I think, is where customers are really going to be in a nirvana, utopia, heaven, having that choice and being able to know that what I'm getting has a validated design and I'm getting the best performance capable,” Melendrez added.
With validated designs, powerful hardware, and a robust software stack like Dell Omni—built in collaboration with AMD—businesses gain the confidence and flexibility to move faster on their AI journey, with trusted performance from edge to core.
