AIPod: Delivering the promise
D-I-Y has its place, like weed control. Building out your AI infrastructure is another story. AIPod consolidates a data center’s worth of analytics, training, and inference compute into a single system.
Why NetApp AIPod?
What AI promises, AIPod delivers
Powered by NVIDIA DGX BasePOD™ and NetApp cloud-connected all-flash storage, NetApp AIPod helps you fully realize the promise of AI and deep learning (DL). You can simplify, accelerate, and integrate your data pipeline with the AIPod proven architecture. Streamline the flow of data reliably and speed up analytics, training, and inference with your data fabric that spans from edge to core to cloud.
NetApp AIPod is a converged infrastructure stack that incorporates NVIDIA DGX H100, the world’s first 32-petaflop AI system, and NVIDIA’s ConnectX®-7 smart network interface cards (SmartNICs), and cloud-connected all-flash storage. You get unified AI workloads, simplified deployment, and fast return on investment.
Key benefits
Simplify, scale, and integrate your data pipeline for DL with the AIPod proven architecture, powered by NVIDIA DGX BasePOD™ and NetApp cloud-connected all-flash storage.
