Integrate Generative AI into a leading Italian energy and utilities company’s DevOps system to automate error detection and fix suggestions, ensuring data security and cost-efficiency.
In 2023, Large Language Models (LLMs) revolutionized IT with natural dialogue and code writing. Intel and Storm Reply aimed to optimize this technology for DevOps processes, enhancing efficiency and cost-effectiveness for a major Italian client in the energy sector. The challenge involved implementing a local LLM to meet security and cost requirements.
To meet the client's needs for enhanced security and minimized costs, Storm Reply chose Intel's fourth-generation Xeon Scalable processors. These processors are designed for advanced AI workloads and provide strong security features like confidential computing, making them an excellent fit for the project.
Unlocking the Potential of Intel CPUs for LLM Inference
The swift integration of Intel processors significantly enhanced the capabilities of our client's DevOps system.Enhanced Security: Adoption of local LLM ensured data security, meeting stringent security requirements.Cost Reduction: Utilization of cost-effective processors and optimized libraries significantly reduced costs.
Performance Improvement: Integration of optimized libraries led to a fivefold increase in performance on the same Xeon-based instance.Versatility and Flexibility: Xeon processors can run any workload, offering reusability and flexibility across various pipeline stages.
In recent years, digitization has picked up speed across all industries. For independent software vendors (ISVs), this rapid development presents a particular challenge. As they develop software products independently of hardware manufacturers, they have to react particularly quickly to market changes in order to remain competitive. As a result, ISVs are currently having to rethink not only their product offerings, but also their business models and the way they interact with customers.
