What is the impact of AI on your performance?

Incorporating AI (Artificial Intelligence) into your organization will give you significant improvements in business performance. This innovation offers new opportunities to work smarter and respond faster to changes in the market. In addition, you naturally want to be one step ahead of the competition. But is your IT hardware ready for this?

AI and your performance

AI will demand a lot from your budgets and IT environment, especially the performance of the environment. Using AI requires special AI processors and the necessary space for these processors and the cores in the server. AI makes many parallel arithmetic operations. Traditional hardware cannot make these arithmetic operations. For this, video cards are needed that can handle the requested computing power, such as those from AMD or NVIDIA.

AI can also take a big bite out of your budgets. For example, prices are significantly increased for products that introduce AI and replacing the human hand is also not cheaper.

Adopting AI will not only increase the price, it will also take a bite out of your time and budget when it comes to implementing it, as implementation involves a lot of trial and error.

 

Make the right choices for your performance

AI will bring a lot of benefits. It will increase productivity through automation, greater efficiency, improved scalability, time savings and higher profits. But if performance suffers, these benefits will be lost.

Consider in advance what your organization is going to use in the field of AI and then choose the right hardware. Below are some questions you can ask yourself. You will see that each question has underlying questions. It is not a one-size-fits-all solution, so you can also submit your situation to one of our specialists.

Do you want to be able to scale up and down easily?

There are multiple situations that require a varying performance. Of course, there are seasonal companies, but also companies that have large promotions. Within e-commerce, we are all familiar with Black Friday and the Christmas period. During this period, more is demanded of the hardware due to the many online purchases and website visits that take place. Then a higher performance is desired than in the rest of the year.

Are you a company that expects a lot of growth? Then you probably also need extra employees. Who will run the computers and laptops on the same server. Which demands more of the performance. If you do not want a loss in performance, then it is useful to have servers that allow you to easily scale up.

Are you going to work in the cloud or on-premises?

Is performance and security important to your company? Or do scalability and flexibility play a crucial role? Working in the cloud offers you the possibility to scale up and down flexibly. In addition, you do not have to worry about the hardware (at our data centers), it is always up-to-date. But the cloud always requires an internet connection, which can affect performance.

An on-premises environment offers better performance than the cloud. In general, an on-premises infrastructure has lower latency. Data can also be stored within your industry sovereigntyt play an important role. Then an on-premises environment is sometimes a better choice.

Does sustainability play a role or is price more important?

What is the focus for the company? Are they more concerned with sustainable IT? Then you can look at components of the IT infrastructure that are energy efficient. But also at the latest servers where fewer of them are needed, for the same performance.

Does price play a more important role? Then it can be examined whether replacement is really necessary. Perhaps only one component needs to be replaced. Or it can be examined what performance is needed or what is a nice-to-have.

Please note: in some cases the purchase costs will be high, but the long-term costs will be lower due to sustainable solutions.
