AI doesn’t fail at the compute layer. It fails at the data layer — when enterprise data is scattered across regions, locked behind sovereignty constraints, or too distributed to activate at speed. While infrastructure vendors race to offer AI solutions, most stop at the hardware. They hand you the factory floor but leave the supply chain unsolved. Equinix and Dell go further. Dell AI Factory builds the engine. Dell AI Data Platform prepares and governs the data. And Equinix provides the neutral, globally distributed framework where all of it connects — private infrastructure, multiple clouds, and a partner ecosystem of 10,000+ enterprises, all on equal terms. From edge to execution, this is what distributed AI actually looks like in production.

Speaking Session
Architecting the AI Data Hub: Accelerating the Dell AI Factory with NVIDIA and AI Data Platform with Equinix
May 20 | 12:20 PM | Premium Expo Center | SID: PREM2717-1
As enterprises move from GenAI experimentation to production, the challenge of “data gravity” often stalls progress. High-performance AI requires more than just compute; it demands a data architecture that balances sovereignty with cloud-adjacent agility. In this session, we explore how Equinix enables and accelerates the Dell AI Data Platform by establishing an Authoritative Core.

Breakout Session
Designing cloud-connected architectures: Discover validated architectures for your multi-cloud journey
May 20 | 1:30 – 2:30 PM PT | Modern Data Center | SID: 7016P-1
Modern businesses run across datacenter, edge, and multiple clouds. Building multi-cloud solutions that work well is hard – getting workload and data placement right is critical but complicated. Dell’s validated multi-cloud architectures smoothen this journey by reducing risk and complexity. In this session, we highlight the Dell Cloud-Connected Storage with Equinix offering, showing how it delivers a low-latency, cloud-adjacent platform that enables performance, sovereignty, and true multi-cloud freedom.
