Before the current AI boom, enterprises were already moving toward a hybrid cloud-edge computing architecture for some scenarios. So how will the introduction of AI services and capabilities affect this evolution? How will you architect your network and compute resources to provide scalability, performance, and optimization for AI-driven workloads? And what do we know about where it's best to run the different types of AI platforms, language models, assistants/copilots, and other applications? In this session, a leading technology analyst will help you understand why some AI may move toward the edge, and what you must do to support these new demands.
