Modernizing the Data Center to Capitalize on AI with Cisco at Cisco Live! | Beyond the Booth

Event Overview

Generative AI may sit atop the executive agenda, but few organizations are fully prepared to harness the full potential of AI and AI-powered technologies. While at Cisco Live, we caught up with Cisco's David Jensen and WWT's Justin van Schaik to talk about the need to modernize and scale enterprise data centers for the surging growth in AI. We also talk with David and Justin about managing AI environments and workloads and how Cisco Nexus HyperFabric AI clusters make it easy for enterprise customers to build infrastructure to run generative AI models.

Cisco AI Toolkit Demonstration

In this technology demonstration, we will showcase the deployment of an AI workload using Cisco Intersight automation on a single UCS X-Series blade, leveraging a neighboring X440p (X-Fabric) with an NVIDIA A40 GPU. This demo will highlight the powerful capabilities of both Cisco Intersight and the Cisco AI Toolkit, which includes tools for AI model deployment, system monitoring, and resource management. By utilizing Miniconda for environment management, CUDA for GPU acceleration, and various large language models like Vicuna and Meta OPT, we will feed data into a retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) model.
