By adopting the high-performance NVIDIA H200 Tensor Core GPU (hereinafter referred to as H200 GPU), it significantly reduces the training time for large-scale language models, greatly improving the efficiency of AI development. Additionally, we are the first Japanese cloud operator to adopt NVIDIA Spectrum-X (hereinafter Spectrum-X), the world’s first Ethernet fabric designed specifically for AI workloads. This H200 GPU, Spectrum-X, and NVIDIA BlueField-3 DPU create a high-level GPU cloud environment optimized for generative AI development and machine learning. What is noteworthy is that the network environment, including job management, is also supported by NVIDIA, and is provided in NVIDIA’s recommended configuration. In addition, we are building a system using the Dell PowerEdge XE9680 (equipped with eight NVIDIA H200 SXMs), which is designed to train the most demanding AI/ML/DL large-scale models. Through this service, GMO Internet Group provides companies and research institutes working in the field of generative AI and high performance computing (HPC) with a high-level computing environment that does not require infrastructure tuning, reducing the development period of our customers. This will contribute to time saving and cost reduction, and promote the development of the domestic AI industry. ・Providing start date: Scheduled for November 22, 2024 ■Features of “GMO GPU Cloud” 1.
