IBM and NVIDIA Expand Collaboration to Accelerate AI at Scale
IBM has announced new collaborations with NVIDIA, including planned new integrations based on the NVIDIA AI Data Platform reference design to help enterprises more effectively put their data to work to help build, scale and manage generative AI workloads and agentic AI applications. As part of today's news, IBM is planning to launch a content-aware storage capability for its hybrid cloud infrastructure offering, IBM Fusion; intends to expand its watsonx integrations; and is introducing new IBM Consulting capabilities with NVIDIA to help drive AI innovation across the enterprise. A 2024 IBM report found that more than three in four executives surveyed (77 percent) say generative AI is market-ready, up from just 36 percent in 2023. With this push to put AI into production comes an increased need for compute and data-intensive technologies. The collaboration between IBM and NVIDIA will enable IBM to provide hybrid AI solutions that take advantage of open technologies and platforms while also supporting data management, performance, security, and governance. Leveraging the NVIDIA AI Data Platform reference architecture, these new solutions are the latest in the IBM and NVIDIA collaboration to build enterprise infrastructure for AI: Augmenting Unstructured Data Processing for AI Performance : With IBM's new content-aware storage (CAS) capability, enterprises will be able to extract the meaning hidden in their rapidly growing volumes of unstructured data for inferencing, without compromising trust and safety, to responsibly scale and enhance AI applications like retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) and AI reasoning. IBM Storage Scale will respond to queries using the extracted and augmented data, speeding up the communications between GPUs and storage using NVIDIA BlueField-3 DPUs and NVIDIA Spectrum-X networking. The multimodal document data extraction workflow will also leverage NVIDIA NeMo Retriever microservices, built with NVIDIA NIM. CAS will be embedded in the next update of IBM Fusion planned for the second quarter of this year. : With IBM's new content-aware storage (CAS) capability, enterprises will be able to extract the meaning hidden in their rapidly growing volumes of unstructured data for inferencing, without compromising trust and safety, to responsibly scale and enhance AI applications like retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) and AI reasoning.

Enabling More Accessible AI : IBM plans to integrate its watsonx offerings with NVIDIA NIM as part of a larger effort to provide access to leading AI models across multiple cloud environments. This will allow organizations to leverage IBM's enterprise-grade AI platform and developer studio, to develop and deploy AI models into their applications of choice while utilizing externally hosted models. IBM's also allows enterprises to implement robust monitoring and governance of NVIDIA NIM microservices across any hosting environment. This type of interoperability is increasingly essential as organizations adopt agentic AI and other advanced applications that require AI model integration. : IBM plans to integrate its watsonx offerings with NVIDIA NIM as part of a larger effort to provide access to leading AI models across multiple cloud environments.

This includes technologies like NVIDIA AI Foundry, NVIDIA NeMo, NVIDIA AI Enterprise, NVIDIA Blueprints, and NVIDIA Clara to accelerate high-compute, complex tasks, while managing AI governance, data security and compliance requirements. 'IBM is focused on helping enterprises build and deploy effective AI models and scale with speed,' said Hillery Hunter , CTO and General Manager of Innovation, IBM Infrastructure. 'Together, IBM and NVIDIA are collaborating to create and offer the solutions, services and technology to unlock, accelerate, and protect data – ultimately helping clients overcome AI's hidden costs and technical hurdles to monetize AI and drive real business outcomes.' 'AI agents need to rapidly access, fetch and process data at scale, and today, these steps occur in separate silos,' said Rob Davis , vice president, Storage Networking Technology, NVIDIA. 'The integration of IBM's content-aware storage with NVIDIA AI orchestrates data and compute across an optimized network fabric to overcome silos with an intelligent, scalable system that drives near real-time inference for responsive AI reasoning.' 0 0
