Moreover, the chip maker said that Google Cloud, Meta and Microsoft are among the first expected to gain access to the DGX GH200 to explore its capabilities for generative AI workloads. The company also intends to provide the DGX GH200 design as a blueprint to cloud service providers and other hyper scalers so they can further customise it for their infrastructure.
“As AI models grow larger, they need powerful infrastructure that can scale to meet increasing demands,” said Alexis Bjorlin, vice president of Infrastructure, AI Systems and Accelerated Platforms at Meta.
Further, to advance research and development, the company is building its own DGX GH200-based AI supercomputer named — NVIDIA Helio, to power the work of its researchers and development teams.
Nvidia DGX GH200 supercomputers are expected to be available by the end of the year.
