Nvidia’s cloud supercomputer is now available via Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). The marketplace gives you access to the solution’s enormous GPU capabilities.
Oracle now offers Nvidia DGX Cloud via its own cloud infrastructure. DGX Cloud, as the name suggests, is a cloud version of Nvidia’s DGX architecture. This in turn combines Nvidia’s powerful Hopper H100 accelerators with Intel Xeon Sapphire Rapids processors. The whole thing is glued together via interconnects from Nvidia itself.
Combine them into an HPC cluster
Each instance in the DGX Cloud has eight GPUs onboard, giving a total graphics memory of 640GB. Customers can combine different instances to create a massive HPC cluster. For example, users can deploy a GPU supercomputer via the cloud and only pay for its consumption, without having to make the huge investment in such a system themselves.
Nvidia DGX Cloud comes bundled with the Nvidia AI Enterprise software suite. This includes frameworks and pre-trained base models that developers can use to get started quickly. Users can further train these or their own models using their own data without sharing it with third parties.
Availability
DGX Cloud is available through the Oracle Cloud Marketplace. There the service is described as a platform for AI training-as-a-service, which immediately summarizes the design. There is no fixed price: you must contact Oracle for this.
