Inspur to Unveil 2U 8-GPU AI Supercomputer at GTC

SAN JOSE, May 9, 2017 — Inspur will unveil a new ultra-high density AI computing server, AGX-2, to accelerate Artificial Intelligence at the upcoming 2017 GPU Technology Conference (GTC2017). It is designed to provide maximum throughput for superior application performance for science and engineering computing, taking AI computing to the next level.

The AGX-2 will be unveiled at Inspur booth# 911 on May 10. It supports up to 8 NVIDIA Tesla P100 GPUs in a 2U form factor with NVIDIA NVLink 2.0 enabled, providing faster, more efficient computing performance for a wide range of demanding applications and environments. The unique air cooling or air-liquid hybrid cooling design enables deployment of Green Datacenters with lower PUE.

Inspur keeps track of all the emerging intelligent computing technologies and applications, and is able to provide customers with the most complete GPU server product solutions that can support 2\4\8 GPU accelerators for a standalone system. Inspur and Baidu are also working together to develop an extendable SR-AI Rack Scale System designed to support 16 NVIDIA Tesla GPU Accelerators in a box. This powerful system can immediately shorten data processing time, visualize more data, accelerate deep learning frameworks, and design more sophisticated neural networks.

Inspur has been working with partners and customers around the world to help them accelerate solutions, automate operations, and gather better insights to make smarter decisions. In China, Inspur accounts for more than 60% of AI computing server market, and works closely with leading AI companies, such as Baidu, Alibaba, Tencent, iFLYTEK, Qihoo 360, Sogou, Toutiao, and Face++, to achieve significant performance improvements for voice, image, video, search, networking and other applications.
