NVIDIA, a global leader in AI computing technology, has announced a groundbreaking initiative to propel the adoption of generative AI applications across industries.
The company revealed its collaboration with renowned system manufacturers to deliver AI-ready servers designed to support the VMware Private AI Foundation with NVIDIA. This strategic partnership aims to empower enterprises to customize and deploy generative AI applications using their proprietary business data.
The forthcoming NVIDIA AI-ready servers will feature a combination of cutting-edge components, including NVIDIA L40S GPUs, NVIDIA BlueField-3 DPUs, and NVIDIA AI Enterprise software. These servers are specifically engineered to facilitate the fine-tuning of generative AI foundation models and the deployment of a variety of generative AI applications, such as intelligent chatbots, search tools, and summarization utilities.
Furthermore, these servers offer an array of NVIDIA-accelerated infrastructure and software components to bolster the functionality of VMware Private AI Foundation with NVIDIA.
The L40S-powered servers, developed by prominent global system manufacturers including Dell Technologies, Hewlett Packard Enterprise, and Lenovo, are set to be available by the end of the year. These advanced servers will play a pivotal role in accelerating AI initiatives within enterprises.
Jensen Huang, the founder and CEO of NVIDIA, emphasized the significance of this development by stating, “A new computing era has begun. Companies in every industry are racing to adopt generative AI. With our ecosystem of world-leading software and system partners, we are bringing generative AI to the world’s enterprises.”
The synergy between NVIDIA’s AI-ready servers and the VMware Private AI Foundation with NVIDIA aligns seamlessly with the growing demand for generative AI capabilities. The integration of real-time geospatial data sources, proprietary analytics engines, and powerful GPUs enables stakeholders across an organization to make faster, data-driven decisions.
Raghu Raghuram, CEO of VMware, highlighted the impact of generative AI on digital transformation, stating, “Generative AI is supercharging digital transformation, and enterprises need a fully integrated solution to more securely build applications that enable them to advance their business. Through the combined expertise of VMware, NVIDIA, and our server manufacturer partners, businesses will be able to develop and deploy AI with data privacy, security, and control.”
NVIDIA’s AI-ready servers have been meticulously designed to meet the demands of a broad spectrum of applications, ranging from drug discovery and retail product descriptions to intelligent virtual assistants and fraud detection. The servers incorporate NVIDIA AI Enterprise, a robust operating system that provides production-ready enterprise support and security for numerous frameworks, pretrained models, toolkits, and software.
As the global technological landscape continues to evolve, the unveiling of NVIDIA’s AI-ready servers marks a significant step towards realizing the full potential of generative AI across various industries.
