For Cloud Scale AI Training and Inference
Demand for high-performance AI/Deep Learning (DL) training compute has doubled in size every 3.5 months since 2013 (according to OpenAI) and is accelerating with the growing size of data sets and the number of applications and services based on large language models (LLMs), computer vision, recommendation systems, and more.
With the increased demand for greater training and inference performance, throughput, and capacity, the industry needs purpose-built systems that offer increased efficiency, lower cost, ease of implementation, flexibility to enable customization, and scaling of AI systems. AI has become an essential technology for diverse areas such as copilots, virtual assistants, manufacturing automation, autonomous vehicle operations, and medical imaging, to name a few. Supermicro has partnered with Intel to provide cloud scale system and rack design with Intel Gaudi AI Accelerators.
