DataRobot Accelerates Adoption of Agentic AI for the Enterprise on the Dell AI Factory with NVIDIA
March 17, 2026 — BOSTON — A critical gap is emerging for enterprises as they move toward transforming their businesses with autonomous systems while supporting on-premises, air-gapped, sovereign, or hybrid-cloud environments. For organizations operating off-hyperscaler, the challenge of manually integrating a platform across 50+ disparate tools and vendors creates an infrastructure trap. To move beyond simple models and operate AI agents at enterprise scale, enterprises must shift their focus away from managing fragmented “plumbing” and toward what only they can do: designing, building, and operating a sophisticated agent workforce specific to their unique enterprise transformation.
DataRobot and Dell are closing that gap in enterprise AI. To empower enterprises that face skyrocketing cloud costs and data sovereignty risks, the Dell AI Factory with NVIDIA and DataRobot pairs Dell’s validated NVIDIA-powered infrastructure with the DataRobot Agent Workforce Platform to provide the choice, control, and performance required for enterprise-scale AI.
“Our collaboration with DataRobot delivers a trusted, production-ready foundation for agentic AI via the Dell AI Factory with NVIDIA. We are helping organizations turn their data into measurable business impact by providing a unified solution that runs AI where data lives. This empowers our customers to scale their AI initiatives securely and with full cost visibility, helping them accelerate their return on investment while maintaining complete control and governance,” said Caitlin Gordon, Vice President, Product Management at Dell Technologies.
As organizations race to adopt agentic AI, leaders grapple with key barriers to enterprise scale: unpredictable costs, vendor lock-in, inefficient governance, and lack of data sovereignty. Building end-to-end infrastructure solutions often require enterprises to source hardware and integrate 50+ independent tools while meeting rigorous governance requirements, causing many to hit a stalling point.
Until now, enterprises have traditionally navigated a delicate balance between two priorities: the agility and innovation of AI platforms designed for rapid experimentation in public cloud, and the operational control and sovereignty offered by more localized infrastructure. Each approach brings unique strengths, but combining the best of both has often been a challenge.
Key areas of impact include:
- Transforming Financial Analysis: Finance teams can automate real-time portfolio stress tests, fraud detection, and regulatory-compliant scorecards.
- Enhancing Supply Chain & Operations: Organizations can deploy agents that autonomously trigger shipment rerouting when disruptions are detected and adjust production plans in response to real-time supplier lead times.
- Streamlining Healthcare: Clinicians can leverage agents to triage patients and recommend evidence-based treatments by comparing streaming vital signs against predictive risk models—all within a HIPAA-compliant, secure framework.
“For too long, enterprises have been told that innovation requires surrendering control — of their data, their economics, and how they operate. That model doesn’t work for agentic AI. The most sensitive enterprise data remains on-prem, and modern infrastructure spans edge to private to hybrid cloud. Agents must run on the enterprise’s terms — not the other way around. By collaborating with Dell and NVIDIA we’re delivering sovereign, infrastructure-aware agentic AI that answers to the boardroom, not a cloud provider’s economics or agenda,” said Debanjan Saha, CEO of DataRobot.
The partnership further mitigates the “Hidden AI Tax” identified in recent IDC research, which found that 96% of organizations report higher-than-expected costs when deploying GenAI. The DataRobot Agent Workforce Platform provides an agent-native operating model, offering a mission-critical runtime that remains resilient regardless of task complexity. Built on the Dell AI Factory with NVIDIA, the platform simplifies development through advanced automation, allowing organizations to manage agents within any IT environment. The new DataRobot blueprint, available via the Dell Automation Platform, provides a secure, optimized, and production-ready framework for immediate deployment.
