Company Overview and AI Challenges we address with Nutanix

GenAI’s rapid advancement and impact present a significant challenge for enterprises seeking to leverage its potential. Nutanix helps businesses transition from GenAI possibilities to production with its Nutanix Enterprise AI (NAI) solution, a full-stack AI infrastructure designed specifically for IT needs. The NAI offering provides a standardized inferencing solution centered around a model repository, allowing for creating secure endpoints with APIs for GenAI applications, spanning from edge to public clouds.

Mike Barmonde, the Sr. Product Marketing Manager for Nutanix AI products, presented an overview of Nutanix and its approach to addressing AI challenges. The presentation focused on how Nutanix simplifies AI inferencing for IT, highlighting that many organizations struggle to scale their AI initiatives. Nutanix Enterprise AI provides a four-step process to deploy AI infrastructure, including Kubernetes selection, hardware choice (with options for public cloud or air-gapped environments), LLM deployment from various sources, and the creation of secure endpoints, all managed from a central location.

The presentation emphasized the comprehensive nature of Nutanix’s AI infrastructure approach, extending from LLMs down to the underlying hardware. Nutanix’s goal is to streamline the entire process, enabling seamless Day 2 operations. This allows IT professionals to centralize their AI infrastructure and provide a better experience for their developers and application owners.
