Infosys has made a spectacular entrance into the global cloud-as-a-service arena by offering the Cobalt Applied AI Cloud, built on the latest NVIDIA DGX A100s. The company aims to make AI accessible within the workforce to drive AI-driven transformations for enterprises.
NVIDIA DGX™ A100 systems offer the necessary compute power for enterprise-level AI applications. The A100 systems are considered ‘Workstation in a box.’ They host 1 trillion transistors and offer 5Petaflops clock speed upfront. On top of it, NVIDIA’s inbuilt Multi-Instance GPU (MIG) technology further improves infrastructure efficiency and maximizes the utilization of each DGX A100 system. The systems will provide the required hardware and software stacks needed for over 100 project teams to simultaneously run machine learning and deep learning operations.
Charlie Boyle, Vice President and General Manager of DGX Systems at NVIDIA, said, “Many organizations are eager to infuse their business with AI but lack the strategic platform on which they can pool expertise and scale the computing resources needed to build mission-critical AI applications. Working with Infosys, we’re helping organizations everywhere build their own AI centers of excellence, powered by NVIDIA DGX A100 and NVIDIA DGX POD infrastructure to speed the ROI of AI investments.”
