Enable Enterprise AI Factories With Secure, High-Performance Networking [S81673]

AI continues to reshape enterprise applications, boosting productivity, streamlining operations, and delivering better outcomes. To realize these gains, enterprises need infrastructure that can keep pace with modern AI. Traditional infrastructure has hit its limits, diverting compute and power from AI workloads and creating performance bottlenecks and security gaps at AI scale. Learn how Red Hat OpenShift, NVIDIA BlueField DPUs, and high-performance Ethernet fabrics provide optimal infrastructure for enterprise AI. DPU-based isolation separates infrastructure services from user workloads, reducing the attack surface and enforcing policy boundaries. We'll also cover how OpenShift automates provisioning, updates, monitoring, and troubleshooting for BlueField-enabled nodes to simplify adoption at enterprise scale.

Red Hat & NVIDIA: Driving Mainstream Enterprise AI Solutions to Unlock Wide-Scale Adoption of AI (Presented by Red Hat) [EX82275]

(Theater Talk )

Delivering a mainstream enterprise AI solution requires an ecosystem that not only works, but is engineered as a cohesive set of components that fit seamlessly to drive success. To truly provide a seamless enterprise solution, you start in the open, where the components can be visualized, vetted, and cleanly integrated. Red Hat and NVIDIA have taken those steps to begin Day 0 support for Red Hat Enterprise Linux and Red Hat OpenShift on NVIDIA systems, starting with Vera Rubin. In this talk, we will look at the work being done behind the scenes to deliver what is a fundamental change in how open moves faster to deliver an enterprise experience.

Director, Product Management, RHEL

Customers know that they've got to embark on this journey to apply AI to transform their business... And so, we built the LaunchPad program to give them instant access to AI servers with Red Hat OpenShift, with the MLOps tooling.
