AI adoption is soaring - but many businesses don't have the infrastructure or governance to support it

• Leaders know that departmental silos are preventing effective AI rollout
• Shadow AI is on the up – a clear indication that demand for AI is there
• Existing infrastructure isn't AI-ready, leaders admit

New research from Nutanix has revealed the vast majority (85%) of organizations are now increasing container adoption to support AI workloads due to portability, scalability and reliability, but even when everything is bundled for maximum efficiency, they're still struggling with the fundamentals.

Four in five (82%) companies worry that silos between business units and IT hinder their ability to execute technologies like AI, and many are battling with shadow AI usage as a result.

This is despite 87% acknowledging that unsanctioned AI use can create business risks.
