Extreme Networks and Intel Forge AI Alliance

Extreme Networks has formed an alliance with the Intel Connectivity Analytics Program to enhance native AI capabilities within its Extreme AI Expert solution, currently in technology preview within Extreme Labs. This collaboration aims to help customers optimize network performance, detect security threats, personalize end-user experiences and reduce operational costs by leveraging network data, unique device data from PCs through the Intel Connectivity Analytics SDK and Generative AI (GenAI).

Extreme AI Expert combines documentation from Extreme’s knowledge bases with data from applications and devices across customer networks to provide insights and recommendations around the design, deployment and management of networks. The partnership with Intel will incorporate Intel-connected device data to improve recommendations for customers and further extend Extreme AI Expert’s knowledge.

“By leveraging the riches of AI-centric insights available through the millions of Intel-connected devices across the world and combining that with rich data from the network, we’ll help organizations reduce operational costs and provide best-in-class end-user experiences,” said Eric McLaughlin, VP & GM of Wireless Solutions at Intel’s Client Computing Group.

“Partnering with Intel provides our customers with a more secure, more streamlined way to gain visibility of their network and client devices within a single platform,” said Nabil Bukhari, Chief Technology and Product Officer and GM of Subscription Business at Extreme. “By augmenting our Extreme AI Expert solution with Intel Connectivity Analytics, we’ll provide richer, more intuitive AI-driven insights and automation which results in smarter, more responsive experiences that enhance everything from network optimization to swift security threat detection and resolution.”
