AI solves a wide array of business challenges, using an equally wide array of neural networks. A great AI inference accelerator has to not only deliver the highest performance but also the versatility to accelerate these networks.
H100 extends NVIDIA’s market-leading inference leadership with several advancements that accelerate inference by up to 30X and deliver the lowest latency. Fourth-generation Tensor Cores speed up all precisions, including FP64, TF32, FP32, FP16, INT8, and now FP8, to reduce memory usage and increase performance while still maintaining accuracy for LLMs.
Exascale High-Performance Computing
The NVIDIA data center platform consistently delivers performance gains beyond Moore’s law. And H100’s new breakthrough AI capabilities further amplify the power of HPC+AI to accelerate time to discovery for scientists and researchers working on solving the world’s most important challenges.
H100 triples the floating-point operations per second (FLOPS) of double-precision Tensor Cores, delivering 60 teraflops of FP64 computing for HPC. AI-fused HPC applications can also leverage H100’s TF32 precision to achieve one petaflop of throughput for single-precision matrix-multiply operations, with zero code changes.
H100 also features new DPX instructions that deliver 7X higher performance over A100 and 40X speedups over CPUs on dynamic programming algorithms such as Smith-Waterman for DNA sequence alignment and protein alignment for protein structure prediction.
