Dell Technologies has announced a series of updates to its Dell AI Factory in collaboration with NVIDIA, which include new AI solutions designed to accelerate agentic AI adoption and simplify deployment.

The company also revealed that it has embraced the latest NVIDIA innovations, which includes NVIDIA Blackwell Ultra, across what it claims is the industry's first end-to-end enterprise AI solution.

"We are celebrating the one-year anniversary of the Dell AI Factory with NVIDIA by doubling down on our mission to simplify AI for the enterprise," said Michael Dell, Chief Executive Officer, Dell Technologies. "With seamless NVIDIA hardware and software from desktop to data centre, only Dell delivers the consistency and reliability organisations need to support AI initiatives. We are breaking down barriers to AI adoption, speeding up deployments, and helping enterprises integrate AI into their operations."

Foundational to these capabilities, Dell PowerScale storage has been improved to achieve faster data ingestion and quicker data retrieval, supporting AI deployments more efficiently.

Jensen Huang, Founder and Chief Executive Officer, NVIDIA, commented, "Every industry is racing to build AI factories to produce intelligence. NVIDIA and Dell are partnering to deliver the industry's broadest, end-to-end AI infrastructure, giving enterprises everything they need to develop, deploy and scale AI. From deskside workstations to data centre-scale AI factories, this platform will power the next wave of AI-driven breakthroughs."
