Dell and NVIDIA Expand Agentic AI Infrastructure Front

According to AI TIMES, Dell Technologies and NVIDIA expanded their infrastructure portfolio on October 21, from desk-side systems to data centers, so companies can develop and operate AI agents in their own environments. Dell said the number of NVIDIA-based AI Factory customers has grown to more than 6,500, and that its own infrastructure can deliver up to 90% better cost efficiency than public cloud. The focus of this expansion is to establish an integrated framework that goes beyond experimental builds and extends to real-world business deployment. By offering development environments, servers, security, operations management, and partner software as a single package, the companies aim to help enterprises scale AI while maintaining existing policies. In particular, the key approach is to move configurations validated at the desk side across the organization and, in data centers, allocate resources according to workload characteristics such as inference and orchestration. By extending the scope to telecom edge sites and modular data centers, the companies made clear their intention to sell AI infrastructure as an operable end-to-end system, rather than as individual equipment.
