Dell Technologies announced an expanded agentic-AI infrastructure offering with NVIDIA partner technology on October 21, 2026. The company said more than 6,500 enterprises had adopted Dell AI Factory deployments since early 2024, according to the company's investor announcement.
The expanded platform spans deskside systems, data-center infrastructure, software, security, and deployment services. Dell positioned the offering as a layered security architecture combining hardware-rooted infrastructure, the NVIDIA OpenShell Reference Architecture for runtime governance, and Red Hat AI Factory software for orchestration.
The Dell AI Factory with NVIDIA integrates three core layers: Dell's hardware and infrastructure foundation, NVIDIA's accelerated computing and AI software platforms, and Red Hat's AI Factory software for layered security and orchestration. The announcement did not specify pricing, contract terms, or the timeline for new deskside or data-center systems planned for 2027.
Dell's official statement described the architecture as built to support enterprise deployment and production use of agentic AI, though the 6,500 adoption figure itself does not independently verify the maturity stage or production scale of those deployments.
The adoption figure of more than 6,500 enterprises is attributed to Dell, based on announced deployments since the platform's early 2024 launch. The available official materials do not indicate that NVIDIA made a separate independent claim about this adoption rate, nor do they provide a list of named enterprises or documented production case studies.
The expansion announcement represents a continuation of Dell and NVIDIA's partnership on AI infrastructure. Red Hat, a subsidiary of IBM, provides the software layer through Red Hat AI Factory, which is embedded in Dell's security and orchestration architecture.
No regulatory action, court proceeding, or penalty was associated with this announcement. The expansion was presented as a product and partnership development rather than a legal or compliance matter.
