High Efficiency AI Training System with Supermicro and Habana Gaudi2 Processor

Anewtech-industrial-server-supermicro-harbana-ai-training-server

Enables up to 40% better price/performance for deep learning training than traditional AI solutions, for Advanced Training and Inference Performance

With the increased demand for greater training performance, throughput, and capacity, the industry needs AI training servers that offer increased efficiency, flexibility to enable customization and ease of implementation, and scaling of training systems.

Supermicro has partnered with Habana Labs to address these growing requirements. The Habana® Gaudi® AI processor is designed to maximize training throughput and efficiency while providing developers with optimized software and tools that scale to many workloads and systems.

 

GAUDI2 PROCESSOR FOR DEEP LEARNING TRAINING AND INFERENCE WORKLOADS. 

The Gaudi2 processor significantly increases training and inference performance, building on the high-efficiency, first-generation Gaudi architecture that delivers up to 40% better price performance in the AWS cloud with Amazon EC2 DL1 instances and on-premises with the Supermicro Gaudi®2 AI Training Server

Gaudi2 delivers training and inference performance on a whole new level with a leap from the first-gen Gaudi 16nm process technology to Gaudi2’s 7nm. It increases the number of AI-customized Tensor Processor Cores–from 8 to 24, adds support for FP8 and integrates a media processing engine for processing compressed media for offloading the host subsystem. Gaudi2’s in-package memory has tripled to 96 GB of HBM2e at 2.45 Terabytes-per-second bandwidth

 

Supermicro AI Training and Inference systems

based on Habana processors are supported by Habana SynapseAI® Software Suite, offering:     
• Integration of TensorFlow and PyTorch frameworks     
• Popular models for computer vision and natural language processing applications     
• Habana Kernel Library and enablement of Custom Kernel Development
