OpenAI and Dell partner to bring Codex to hybrid and on-premise enterprise environments

OpenAI and Dell Technologies are collaborating to help more enterprises deploy Codex in the environments where their most important data, systems, and workflows already live.

Codex is becoming one of OpenAI’s fastest-growing enterprise products. More than 4 million developers now use Codex every week, and companies are already using it across the software development lifecycle, from code review and test coverage to incident response and reasoning across large repositories.

And Codex is expanding beyond coding. Teams are beginning to use Codex-powered agents to gather context across tools, prepare reports, route product feedback, qualify leads, write follow-ups, and coordinate work across business systems.

To scale that adoption, enterprises need Codex to work securely across the hybrid and on-premises environments where their data, systems, and workflows already live, like the Dell AI Data Platform and the Dell AI Factory.

Through this collaboration, Codex will connect with the Dell AI Data Platform, which many businesses already use to store, organize, and govern enterprise data on-premises. The partnership will help customers bring Codex closer to the internal context that makes agents useful: codebases, documentation, business systems, operational knowledge, and team workflows.

Dell and OpenAI will also explore how Codex can connect with the Dell AI Factory, which businesses use to power their AI workloads. The exploration includes ways for Codex, ChatGPT Enterprise, and other API-based solutions to interface with AI Factory to prepare data, manage systems of record, run tests, and deploy AI applications integrated with a business’ hybrid or on-premises Dell infrastructure.

“Collaborating with OpenAI brings together Dell’s industry-leading enterprise grade infrastructure with cutting edge agentic AI harnesses and models from OpenAI. The Dell AI Factory with OpenAI Codex will allow enterprises to deploy AI where enterprise data already lives, within their premises, giving customers a practical, secure path to deploying AI agents at scale.”

For customers, the result is a more practical path to production. Codex can be deployed closer to enterprise data and systems, with the controls large organizations need and the flexibility to support more use cases across software development and knowledge work.

By connecting Codex to governed enterprise data in Dell environments, customers can build, test, automate, analyze, and act with more of the context required for production work.

We hope this helps more enterprises adopt Codex faster, expand it into more high-value workflows, and turn AI agents into repeatable systems for real work.
