Deep Learning and Artificial Intelligence was NVIDIA’s core focus at GTC 2016. NVIDIA® launched the NVIDIA® DGX-1, the World’s First Deep Learning Supercomputer (available exclusively through XENON) which is a fully integrated hardware and software solution that can be deployed quickly and easily.
The NVIDIA® DGX-1 is built with ground-breaking new NVIDIA® Pascal-powered Tesla P100 accelerators, interconnected with NVIDIA® NVLink™. Its revolutionary performance significantly accelerates training time and most major frameworks making the NVIDIA® DGX-1 the world’s first deep learning supercomputer in a box.
The NVIDIA® DGX-1 system includes a complete suite of optimised deep learning software that allows researchers and data scientists to quickly and easily train deep neural networks. The DGX-1 software includes the NVIDIA® Deep Learning GPU Training System (DIGITS™), a complete, interactive system for designing deep neural networks (DNNs). It also includes the newly released NVIDIA® CUDA® Deep Neural Network library (cuDNN) version 5, a GPU-accelerated library of primitives for designing DNNs.
It also includes optimized versions of several widely used deep learning frameworks — Caffe, Theano and Torch. The DGX-1 additionally provides access to cloud management tools, software updates and a repository for containerized applications.
The NVIDIA® DGX-1 system specifications include:
- Up to 170 teraflops of half-precision (FP16) peak performance
- Eight Tesla P100 GPU accelerators, 16GB memory per GPU
- NVLink Hybrid Cube Mesh
- 7TB SSD DL Cache
- Dual 10GbE, Quad InfiniBand 100Gb networking
- 3U – 3200W
