Lenovo has partnered with Databricks to accelerate AI adoption among its customers. As a Databricks Consulting & Systems Integration (C&SI) Select Tier Partner, Lenovo will assist businesses in leveraging advanced data management capabilities, streamlining data access from multiple sources, and overcoming obstacles to successful AI implementation.
“We’ve spoken to many customers at various stages of their AI journeys and, while most want to reap the benefits and feel the urgency to do so, their organizations aren’t ready. Our latest study showed that 90% of the CIOs we surveyed see AI as either a must do or game changer, yet over half feel their organizations lack the technical skills to scale AI quickly. By adding Databricks to Lenovo's ecosystem of leading software vendors, we can further enable our AI for all vision and bring the technology to a broader set of customers," commented Linda Yao, Chief Operating Officer and Head of Strategy, Lenovo Solutions & Services Group.
The collaboration integrates Databricks into Lenovo's ecosystem of leading software vendors, supporting Lenovo's AI for all vision and extending AI technology to a wider range of customers. This will be executed through the Lenovo AI Center of Excellence (AI CoE), which aims to help organizations deploy AI solutions swiftly, cost-effectively, and at scale.
Leveraging the Databricks Data Intelligence Platform, Lenovo will enable businesses to consolidate their data sources, enhance their use of generative AI, improve data analytics, and foster innovation. The AI CoE will provide services to define outcomes and facilitate rapid innovation with the Databricks Platform tailored to each organization's specific needs.
"Our partnership with Lenovo showcases our unwavering commitment to democratize data and AI for all organizations. We are proud to see our relationship with Lenovo transform from customer to key partner. Together, we are driving unprecedented innovation, accelerating growth, and delivering exceptional value to our customers on the Databricks Data Intelligence Platform," said Greg Taylor, VP of Partners, Databricks.
Initially launching in the Greater China and Asia Pacific Region and then expanding globally, Lenovo will provide end-to-end solutions and services for data management, including cloud, data and AI strategy, data platform modernization, data migration, pre-built code for quick implementation, optimization, governance, audit management, and AI and ML use cases.
