With the goal of streamlining AI initiatives, businesses can now enhance productivity, security, and agility while adeptly managing the heightened demands on data centres brought about by AI developments.

Our new services streamline AI adoption through an as-a-service model and advanced infrastructure, simplifying AI strategies and advancing sustainability across enterprises."
Kumar Mitra, Managing Director for ANZ at Lenovo ISG, highlighted the importance of AI to Australian businesses: "According to our recent study, 83% of ANZ CIOs view AI as a competitive edge, and 38% see it as a game changer for their organizations. Australian businesses are embracing AI enthusiastically but face challenges around flexibility, affordability, and simplicity. Lenovo's new suite of services, including GPU-as-a-Service (GPUaaS), addresses these concerns by expanding AI applications and simplifying their deployment. Through our significant investments in AI, we're empowering businesses to stay ahead and thrive in today's dynamic landscape."
The Lenovo TruScale GPU-as-a-Service (GPUaaS) is designed to provide scalable GPU resources through a pay-as-you-go model. This service integrates with Lenovo TruScale for HPC solutions, allowing organisations immediate access to essential AI and high-performance computing (HPC) technology. The GPUaaS utilises NVIDIA GPU resources managed through Lenovo's Intelligent Computer Orchestration (LiCO) technology, facilitating efficient workload management and cost control.
For system management, Lenovo has introduced Lenovo XClarity One, a unified platform that combines AI and systems management to enhance operations. The platform features AI-powered predictive failure analytics and a new AIOps Systems Management engine, providing proactive insights into potential system issues. This approach aims to enhance reliability, security, and scalability while reducing the burden on IT teams.
