Meet Eos, NVIDIA’s Supercomputer Behind AI Innovations

NVIDIA has long been at the forefront of the AI revolution, fueling advancements across various sectors from healthcare to autonomous vehicles. The company’s deep dive into artificial intelligence (AI) has paved the way for significant breakthroughs, enabling developers and researchers to push the boundaries of what’s possible with technology. In a recent short film by NVIDIA on YouTube, the company showcases how people are leveraging generative AI to change the world in numerous ways, including drug discovery, the development of sophisticated chatbots, and the creation of autonomous machines.

To support these innovative efforts, NVIDIA has introduced Eos, an AI factory designed to meet the growing demands of AI model development at scale. Eos, an NVIDIA DGX SuperPOD, represents the pinnacle of NVIDIA’s commitment to enhancing AI infrastructure and capabilities. Equipped with 576 NVIDIA DGX H100 systems and powered by NVIDIA Quantum-2 InfiniBand networking and software, Eos delivers an astounding 18.4 exaflops of AI performance. This powerhouse features a total of 4,608 H100 GPUs, making it a formidable tool in the AI development landscape.

Ranked as the ninth fastest supercomputer in the world according to the TOP500 list, Eos epitomizes NVIDIA’s ongoing efforts to advance AI technology. The supercomputer is designed with a full-stack architecture that includes accelerated infrastructure, networking, and AI software, all purpose-built for AI. With eight NVIDIA H100 Tensor Core GPUs in each system, Eos provides unprecedented performance, enabling NVIDIA developers to create leading-edge AI innovations.

Eos is not just a testament to NVIDIA’s engineering and AI expertise; it’s a critical resource for developers working on generative AI projects, allowing them to achieve remarkable speeds in training AI models. The integrated software stack of Eos includes AI development and deployment software, orchestration and cluster management tools, and an operating system optimized for AI workloads.

As the latest in NVIDIA’s lineage of DGX supercomputers, including predecessors like Saturn V and Selene, Eos builds upon the knowledge gained from these earlier projects. It stands as a testament to NVIDIA’s capability to meet the challenges posed by AI research and development. By providing an environment like Eos, NVIDIA is enabling enterprises to tackle their most demanding projects and realize their AI ambitions, today and into the future.
