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

OpenAI and Dell Technologies have partnered to bring Codex into hybrid and on‑premises enterprise environments, enabling secure deployment where critical data and workflows already reside.

Codex will connect to Dell’s AI Data Platform, giving agents access to codebases, documentation, business systems, and operational knowledge, while the partnership explores integration with the AI Factory to prepare data, manage systems of record, run tests, and deploy AI applications. This collaboration provides enterprises with a practical, secure path to deploy AI agents at scale, expanding Codex beyond coding into business workflows such as incident response, test coverage, and reasoning across large repositories. By bringing Codex closer to enterprise data, customers can build, test, automate, analyze, and act with more context required for production work. The partnership also aims to support high‑value use cases across software development and knowledge work, accelerating adoption and expanding Codex’s reach. The integration is expected to reduce security risks by keeping data on‑prem and provide governance controls for enterprise data. The collaboration underscores the importance of secure, on‑prem AI deployment for large organizations. The result is a more practical path to production and faster adoption of Codex in high‑value workflows.
