Enterprise AI conversations are shifting from "which model?" to "can the model trust the data?". Dell's latest expansion of the Dell AI Data Platform introduces a Unified Semantic Layer, Enterprise Knowledge Graph, and Knowledge Agents targeting the biggest barrier to production AI: fragmented, inconsistent, poorly contextualized enterprise data.

The update also includes NVIDIA-accelerated data processing and PowerScale multitenancy and security enhancements.
