Lenovo expands their Hybrid AI Advantage portfolio with new inference servers, which are specialized software that uses machine learning or AI to process real-world data and generate predictions.
Lenovo aims for these solutions will power real-world AI use cases such as storefront customer transactions to healthcare applications, including rapid diagnostics and treatment planning in critical care environments.
AI Inferencing marks a significant pivotal shift from training Large Language Models (LLMs) to leveraging fully trained models to analyze unseen data to make instant decisions in real-world settings. Moving from training to action turns the significant capital committed to AI into tangible business return, and invaluable competitive gain. Lenovo’s new AI Inferencing suite maximizes return, unifying and connecting an organization’s data across the cloud, data center, and edge to power AI workloads wherever they deliver the greatest output. Futurum estimates the global AI inference infrastructure market growing from $5.0 billion in 2024 to $48.8 billion by 2030, representing a six-year CAGR of 46.3%.
“Enterprises today need AI that can turn massive amounts of data into insight the moment it’s created,” said Ashley Gorakhpurwalla, executive vice president, Lenovo, president of Lenovo Infrastructure Solutions Group. “With Lenovo’s new inferencing-optimized infrastructure, we are giving customers that real-time advantage—transforming massive amount of data into instant, actionable intelligence that fuels stronger decisions, greater security, and faster innovation.”
Lenovo’s new AI inferencing servers provide a range of offerings for business workloads of all sizes. Featuring state of the art GPU, memory, and networking capabilities, Lenovo’s inferencing-optimized portfolio include:
Lenovo ThinkSystem SR675i: Powerhouse performance, AI inferencing server built to run full LLMs anywhere with massive scalability, for the largest workloads and accelerated simulation in manufacturing, critical healthcare and financial services environments.
