Clients gain accelerated deep learning training and inference in areas of automation, IoT

TEMPE, Ariz., Nov. 02, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Insight Enterprises (NASDAQ: NSIT) today announced the addition of NVIDIA’s high-performance artificial intelligence (AI) computing solutions to its Cloud and Data Center Transformation and Digital Innovation portfolios.

From concept to application development, Insight works closely with organizations to assess needs, design IT road maps and deliver AI solutions generating real business outcomes. Insight will capitalize on NVIDIA® Tesla® graphics processing unit (GPU) innovations, which accelerate data access required by enterprises implementing deep learning and Internet of Things solutions in areas like automation in manufacturing, preventative healthcare and self-driving cars.

“ Digital transformation is top of mind in enterprises today. However, assessing and choosing best-fit platforms to support data workloads in cloud, hybrid, and on-premises environments is difficult given AI’s scale and accelerated data access requirements,” said Shawn O’Grady, senior vice president and general manager, Cloud and Data Center Transformation, Insight. “We help clients quickly transform while optimizing AI operations so they have access to intelligent data needed to make critical business decisions and enhance their customer experiences.”

Insight also helps organizations modernize IT infrastructures with NVIDIA and other Insight Intelligent Technology Solutions™, providing day-to-day IT operations support and management. This results in a potent combination for enterprises who are preparing to harness the power of AI, particularly companies enabling deep learning for practical applications.

“In a short amount of time, AI has gone from a hypothetical conversation to being present in almost all of our solutions,” said Stan Lequin, vice president and general manager, Digital Innovation, Insight. “It may be visible to the end user, such as in driverless vehicles, or it may be embedded into the logic of the solution. Either way, it is here to stay, and our work with NVIDIA shows our joint commitment and continued focus to bring the best possible AI solutions to our clients.”

“GPU innovations are helping organizations modernize IT infrastructures and accelerate workloads from the cloud to the data center,” said Craig Weinstein, vice president, Americas Partner Organization, NVIDIA. “NVIDIA partners like Insight, who prioritize AI in their go-to-market strategy, can help enterprises derive understanding from their massive amount of customer data to make critical business decisions.”

Insight services are delivered by more than 200 dedicated data scientists, data infrastructure consultants, architects, and big data and AI specialists focused on strategy and software development. Additionally 700 application-development architects and consultants assess and modernize infrastructures to support AI requirements.

Insight holds NVIDIA certifications in deep learning, high-performance computing, and virtual desktop infrastructures.
