ePlus Launches Comprehensive Managed Service for Private AI Infrastructure

ePlus Debuts Private AI Infrastructure Managed Service

In an exciting development for enterprises leveraging artificial intelligence, ePlus Inc., listed on the NASDAQ under the ticker PLUS, has officially launched its Private AI Infrastructure Managed Service. This innovative offering is a pre-validated, production-ready foundation for organizations aiming to efficiently deploy AI capabilities at scale.

The Private AI Infrastructure Managed Service is not just another service; it signifies a comprehensive solution that takes organizations through the entire journey of AI implementation—from initial assessment to global-scale deployment. Designed to integrate seamlessly with Digital Realty's PlatformDIGITAL® and Lenovo's Hybrid AI Advantage platforms, this service stands out by providing high-performance NVIDIA accelerated computing clusters. These clusters are hosted in secure colocation facilities, ensuring enterprises have the requisite resources to develop and scale their AI workloads effectively.

One of the key benefits of this ePlus solution is that it is managed end-to-end by certified engineers from the company itself. This encompasses comprehensive design, deployment, 24/7 monitoring, lifecycle management, patching, and optimization. Moreover, clients enjoy full ownership of their AI infrastructure assets, granting them greater control over their operations, enhanced security posture, and the potential to derive long-term value from their AI investments.

The partnership with NVIDIA is particularly noteworthy. ePlus has achieved top-tier integrations, such as NVIDIA DGX SuperPOD specialization and being recognized as a DGX-Ready Managed Services Provider. This collaboration allows ePlus to deliver a complete stack solution that leverages renowned NVIDIA platforms, including NVIDIA DGX BasePOD and SuperPOD, alongside NVIDIA AI Enterprise software. These integrations are pivotal for expediting AI development and deployment, ensuring organizations can harness the full power of artificial intelligence.

Justin Mescher, ePlus's Vice President of AI, Cloud, and Data Center Solutions, emphasized the demand for high-performance, scalable GPU infrastructure. He mentioned that as businesses shift towards generative AI solutions, they require a dependable service without the complexities of constructing and managing the infrastructure independently. The new Managed Service caters to this need, providing not just convenience but also a predictable cost model, accelerated value realization, superior performance, reliable support, and continuous optimization.

Rick Moore, the head of platform innovation at Digital Realty, noted the challenges organizations face when assembling the necessary components for a successful AI deployment. He stated that the combined effort with Digital Realty's PlatformDIGITAL® allows ePlus to present a tailored AI experience that emphasizes cost efficiency and scalability.

Lenovo's involvement further enriches the offering. Flynn Maloy, Lenovo's Chief Marketing Officer, highlighted how Lenovo's AI-optimized platforms are redefining the landscape for AI deployment. By merging Lenovo's dedicated infrastructure capabilities with Digital Realty's global data center presence and ePlus's expertise, the collaboration aims to democratize AI access and expedite its benefits across various industries.

For businesses interested in harnessing the potential of AI without the inherent complexities, ePlus’s Private AI Infrastructure Managed Service offers a groundbreaking solution that simplifies the process, making AI more accessible and valuable.
