Oracle Continues AI Momentum with NVIDIA AI Enterprise and DGX Cloud Availability in the Oracle Cloud Marketplace

PR Newswire | October 20, 2023

Oracle today announced that NVIDIA AI Enterprise, an enterprise-grade software that accelerates data science and streamlines development and deployment of production-ready AI, and the NVIDIA DGX Cloud AI supercomputing platform are now available through the Oracle Cloud Marketplace. These offerings provide customers with easy access to NVIDIA's accelerated, secure, and scalable platform for end-to-end AI development and deployment on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). Qualified customers can purchase NVIDIA AI Enterprise and NVIDIA DGX Cloud with their existing Oracle Universal Credits. In March, OCI became the first hyperscale cloud provider to offer NVIDIA DGX Cloud. Now, with the addition of NVIDIA AI Enterprise and availability in the Marketplace, customers can quickly and easily perform any kind of large-model training for generative AI applications on OCI – including for workloads optimized by NVIDIA NeMo, an end-to-end, cloud-native framework to build, customize, and deploy generative AI. After customizing and training their models, customers will be able to use the same software containers and tools to deploy inferencing with NVIDIA AI Enterprise on any OCI Compute instance using the NVIDIA Triton Inference Server. Customers will now have access to an end-to-end set of training and inference capabilities on OCI, alongside OCI services for building applications and managing data across a range of distributed cloud deployment options. Many organizations are taking advantage of accelerated computing and AI from NVIDIA on OCI. For example, Gemelo.ai runs NVIDIA Maxine GPU-accelerated AI software development kits and cloud-native microservices on OCI AI Infrastructure to drive its next-generation text-to-speech, voice-to-voice, and voice cloning systems. This has enabled Gemelo.ai to deploy "AI twins" that act as trained interactive service agents for its customers. Gemelo.ai is pioneering new AI-based business models that showcase the combined power of OCI and NVIDIA's software, said Karan Batta, senior vice president, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. We have worked closely with NVIDIA for years to provide organizations with an accelerated compute infrastructure to run NVIDIA software and GPUs. The addition of NVIDIA AI Enterprise and NVIDIA DGX Cloud to OCI further strengthens this collaboration and will help more organizations bring AI-fueled services to their customers faster. "We are excited to put the dual resources of OCI and the NVIDIA AI Enterprise suite to use in building our next-generation AI-driven applications and ever more useful digital twins," said Paul Jaski, CEO, Gemelo.ai. "Enterprises looking to fast-track their generative AI initiatives are seeking platforms where they can train and deploy their applications in a secure environment," said Charlie Boyle, vice president of DGX systems, NVIDIA. "The addition of NVIDIA DGX Cloud paired with NVIDIA AI software, including NVIDIA AI Enterprise, into Oracle Cloud Marketplace enables OCI customers to use their existing cloud credits to accelerate the development of generative AI applications." NVIDIA AI Enterprise and NVIDIA DGX Cloud can be accessed via private offers through the Oracle Cloud Marketplace.

HPE's GreenLake Breaks the $1 Billion Revenue Mark to Expand its Cloud

Hewlett Packard Enterprise | October 09, 2023

HPE's GreenLake revenue tops $1 billion and offers flexible payment models. GreenLake adds cloud-based backup and recovery as software-as-a-service. HPE launches AI-driven GreenLake for large language models and eyes the Asia-Pacific market. Hewlett-Packard Enterprise (HPE) has refined its GreenLake strategy, which was launched in 2017 as a response to the growing demand for IT consumption as a service. GreenLake's annual recurring revenue has now surpassed $1 billion, reflecting the popularity of the pay-as-you-go model for cost control and IT agility. However, in light of higher interest rates and economic uncertainty, organizations are showing decreased interest in pay-as-you-go approaches. As a result, HPE has introduced flexibility by offering GreenLake options through both capital expenditure (capex) and operating expenditure (opex) models, allowing customers to choose how they pay for their infrastructure. HPE has also expanded its GreenLake offerings in the software domain, providing software-as-a-service (SaaS) solutions, such as backup and disaster recovery, without requiring hardware investments. The platform supports backup and replication of workloads between cloud providers like AWS and Azure without the need for on-premises hardware. Joseph Yang, Managing Director of HPE, Singapore region, reportedly remarked, If you look at the architecture of HPE hardware, it’s becoming more and more like a modern smartphone, which is managed through the cloud, while your data and applications run on your premises. That’s what GreenLake is evolving into. [Source – Computer Weekly] The company is streamlining the management of hybrid infrastructures through GreenLake's infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) management platform. This platform can manage various HPE hardware, including networking equipment, servers, and storage, through the cloud, simplifying tasks like OS provisioning and firmware updates. Regarding data protection, HPE is focusing on helping customers manage their data lifecycles, whether stored on-premises or in the public cloud, through a centralized platform. HPE has also heavily invested in artificial intelligence (AI) solutions. They offer comprehensive AI solutions that cover the entire AI lifecycle, including machine learning data management software. In June 2023, HPE entered the AI cloud market with GreenLake for large language models (LLMs), allowing enterprises to privately train and deploy large-scale AI using supercomputers. Regarding the availability of this service in the Asia-Pacific region, Yang mentioned that market demand and factors like access to renewable energy need to be considered, especially in datacenter hubs like Singapore, where renewable energy sources are limited. Yang emphasized that addressing challenges like renewable energy sources and cooling methods is essential to supporting AI workloads effectively in the region.
