AI ambition, tight budgets, and sustainability collide—so start with modern, AI-ready infrastructure. MI&S argues hybrid cloud on updated silicon beats retrofitting legacy stacks. Dell XC Plus (PowerEdge) + Nutanix Cloud Platform (NCI/AHV, Central, Cloud Manager, Security Central) provides a single plane for compute/storage/networking and fast path to gen-AI via GPT-in-a-Box on Intel Xeon. Portfolio spans ROBO to GPU/accel nodes (XC660xs, XC660, XC4000, XC760, XC760xa). 5th-gen Xeon boosts perf/efficiency and adds AMX/AVX-512 for AI. Guidance: think big/plan small; design bottom-up; pick where GPUs vs CPUs fit; define a data strategy; close skills gaps with partners; enforce process/governance. Result: faster “time to value/first token” with lower risk and power.
