Red Hat, Inc. announced a collaboration with Lenovo to deliver Red Hat
Enterprise Linux AI (RHEL AI) on Lenovo ThinkSystem SR675 V3 servers.
With this collaboration, RHEL AI is validated to support SR675 V3
servers and will be factory pre-loaded for customers to more easily
develop, test and run artificial intelligence (AI) and generative AI
(gen AI) models on a trusted foundation model platform, built on an
AI-optimized operating system.
While gen AI poses a significant opportunity for organizations to speed
up innovation, AI workloads require a combination of high performance
servers and flexible software that can support these intensive compute
and processing demands while also streamlining AI model training and
fine tuning. By enabling Lenovo ThinkSystem SR675 V3 servers with the
power of RHEL AI, Red Hat and Lenovo deliver optimized performance for
AI computing using built-in GPU processing power, helping customers more
quickly and seamlessly put AI initiatives into production.
RHEL AI is a foundation model platform that brings together the Granite family of open source-licensed large language models (LLMs) from IBM Research with InstructLab
model alignment tools for a community-driven approach to model
development. The solution is packaged as an optimized, bootable Red Hat
Enterprise Linux image for portability across hybrid cloud environments
and is included as part of Red Hat OpenShift AI,
Red Hat's hybrid cloud machine learning operations (MLOps) platform,
for running models and InstructLab at scale across distributed cluster
environments.
Lenovo Consulting Service offers comprehensive support to optimize and
implement Red Hat solutions. These services provide expertise in
deployment, integration, and management, helping businesses enhance
their IT infrastructure's performance and scalability while reducing
complexity and costs. Lenovo's team of experts is here to help across
the end-to-end technology lifecycle. For more information on Lenovo's

RHEL AI is now supported and available on Lenovo ThinkSystem SR675 v3
servers. Customers can test drive the solution firsthand in Lenovo's AI Center of Excellence, where outcomes are tailored to meet the unique needs of customer organizations.
"For enterprises to take full advantage of AI's rapid
evolutionary pace, they need greater levels of agility and efficiency to
both identify and implement AI strategies successfully. Through our
collaboration with Lenovo, Red Hat is making it easier for customers to
seize the AI opportunity by combining the power of RHEL AI with Lenovo's
industry leading servers, helping customers build, deploy and run AI
workloads from the datacenter, to the cloud and out to the edge." -- Joe Fernandes, vice president and general manager, AI Business Unit, Red Hat
"Our collaboration with Red Hat is a powerful force driving
innovation in AI. By combining Lenovo's industry-leading hardware with
Red Hat's cutting-edge software, we are delivering comprehensive
solutions that empower businesses to harness the full potential of these
transformative technologies. Leveraging Red Hat Enterprise Linux AI on
Lenovo enterprise AI ThinkSystem servers, organizations can streamline
their AI workflows achieving faster time-to-value." --
