Nutanix Enterprise AI can manage your hybrid accelerator environment from a single, consistent control plane. Nutanix CoreStart brings down the barriers to in-house AI inferencing at speed, so you can build AI applications without exposing your private data. It's a quick-start AI solution designed for enterprises that want to move fast. Deploy secure, scalable, AI-ready infrastructure simply, without the dependency on GPU infrastructure and cloud data resources. The secret? CoreStart unlocks the power of Intel AMX, an instruction set for accelerating AI, already integrated into all Intel Xeon processors at Gen 4 or above. So start accelerating, supercharge existing infrastructure to power AI for LLMs, as well as classic machine and deep learning applications. Keep it simple, everything you need is included. Deploy on-premises, in data centers, or at the edge, with an average deployment time of around 30 days. Do it your way, choose from multiple models, or use your own. CoreStart includes access to hundreds of AI models, all performance validated through Intel, plus integration with Hugging Face. Instantly validate your end-to-end AI infrastructure with a chat-with-docs sample AI app. This sample app helps deliver a fast, frictionless validation experience, enabling teams to move to production with confidence. Then, use included developer tools to empower teams to build and deploy custom AI applications. Deploy seamlessly, professional deployment is included and delivered by Nutanix partners in your region to ensure a fast and reliable installation. Faster performance, reliability without unnecessary cost. Use your existing CPU infrastructure for cost-effective AI and reserve GPUs for very large models. Be future-ready, CoreStart provides a jumpstart to your AI ambitions that scales. As your AI demands grow, add new nodes or GPUs, but maintain a consistent control plane. Nutanix CoreStart, everything you need to power your AI success in a single, simple package. Run on the CPU when you can, and GPU when you must. Nutanix.com forward slash AI.

TL;DR

  • Nutanix CoreStart enables AI inference on Intel Xeon CPUs with AMX acceleration, eliminating the need for expensive GPU infrastructure for small to medium workloads.
  • The solution includes hundreds of pre-validated AI models, Hugging Face integration, a sample chat-with-docs app, and developer tools for building custom AI applications.
  • Professional deployment by regional partners takes approximately 30 days, with options for on-premises, data center, or edge installation while maintaining data privacy.

Summary

This product demonstration introduces Nutanix CoreStart, a turnkey AI infrastructure solution designed to enable enterprises to deploy generative AI inference workloads without GPU dependency. Built on Intel Xeon processors with Advanced Matrix Extensions (AMX), CoreStart positions itself as a cost-effective alternative to GPU-based infrastructure for small to medium AI workloads. The solution includes pre-validated AI models from Intel and Hugging Face integration, a sample chat-with-docs application for validation, developer tools for custom AI application development, and professional deployment services delivered by regional Nutanix partners. The platform emphasizes rapid deployment (approximately 30 days), on-premises or edge installation options, and the ability to scale by adding nodes or GPUs while maintaining a consistent control plane through Nutanix Enterprise AI. The core value proposition centers on leveraging existing CPU infrastructure for AI workloads while keeping sensitive data private and avoiding cloud dependencies.

FAQ

What types of AI workloads is Nutanix CoreStart designed for?

CoreStart is designed for small to medium generative AI inference workloads, LLMs, and classic machine and deep learning applications. It's optimized for scenarios where GPU infrastructure isn't necessary, allowing organizations to reserve GPUs for very large models while running most workloads on CPU infrastructure.

How does CoreStart maintain data privacy compared to cloud-based AI solutions?

CoreStart enables on-premises deployment in data centers or at the edge, allowing organizations to build AI applications without exposing private data to cloud resources. This eliminates cloud dependency and keeps sensitive data within the organization's controlled infrastructure.
