Solutions

Advance hybrid cloud AI

The Red Hat and NVIDIA AI-Ready Enterprise platform includes NVIDIA AI Enterprise software and support services certified to run with Red Hat® OpenShift® on NVIDIA-Certified Systems. This platform addresses three key challenges:

  • Complexity with deployment and scaling

  • Lack of self-service access to AI tools and infrastructure 

  • Isolated operations environments

Enhance AI orchestration and automation

Red Hat OpenShift is a Kubernetes container platform built for an open hybrid cloud strategy. The NVIDIA BlueField data processing unit (DPU) offloads and accelerates infrastructure tasks from the server central processing unit (CPU) for more efficient and more security-focused servers and networking. Together, Red Hat OpenShift, Red Hat Enterprise Linux®, and NVIDIA BlueField DPUs provide a consistent, cloud-native application platform to manage hybrid cloud, multicloud, and edge deployments with enhanced orchestration, automation, and a focus on security.

Simplify AI workload deployments

NVIDIA GPU Operator for Red Hat OpenShift helps simplify and accelerate compute-intensive machine-learning and deep-learning (ML/DL) modeling tasks, as well as deploying inferencing jobs across datacenters, edge compute deployments, and public clouds. The Feature Discovery plug-in within the GPU Operator allows OpenShift to dynamically allocate the correct GPU for its optimal workload. The joint solution is compatible with NVIDIA-Certified Systems and Red Hat Enterprise Linux certified servers.

Simplify AI workload deployments

Empower AI at the edge of the network

Leading enterprise, industry, and telecommunications companies are shifting workloads from traditional datacenters to the outer boundaries of public and private networks. They are focused on bringing processing power and storage closer to the end user or data sources and are often faced with specific requirements to ensure productivity, security, and compliance. These requirements are imperative to delivering high-value services, intelligent industrial-grade edge applications, and scaling across geographically distributed locations. Technical innovation at edge deployments is a critical component of the Red Hat and NVIDIA joint strategy.

Accelerate development and deployment of cloud-native AI apps

AI is transforming how modern enterprises are doing business and pressing organizations to increasingly integrate AI capabilities into cloud-native applications to deliver more insight and value. AI workloads have different requirements than traditional IT compute, but Red Hat and NVIDIA provide machine learning operations (MLOps) solutions you need to deploy these applications and frameworks with confidence. Developing and operationalizing AI-powered cloud-native applications on NVIDIA-Certified Systems with Red Hat OpenShift, and featuring NVIDIA GPUs and DPUs, accelerates projects by enhancing efficiency and productivity for software developers, IT operators, and data scientists.

Accelerate Development of Cloud Native AI Apps

Accelerate AI for modern datacenters

Red Hat and NVIDIA provide accelerated AI infrastructure for bare-metal and virtualized deployments on site and in the public cloud. You can use NVIDIA’s NGC software hub to access GPU-optimized DL and ML applications and pretrained AI models on Red Hat OpenShift to take advantage of the massive parallel-processing capabilities of this solution.

Red Hat Enterprise Linux is the base operating system certified on NVIDIA’s DGX AI/ML systems, ConnectX adapters, and BlueField DPUs. It serves as a common link, connecting modern IT with a consistent, reliable, and flexible operating system that connects every technology within your IT stack. Additionally, precompiled driver packages available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux provide a predictable deployment foundation for NVIDIA GPU acceleration across hybrid cloud environments.

Experience IT manageability purpose-built for AI on-site capability with DGX

Bring the benefits of Red Hat Enterprise Linux and Red Hat OpenShift to NVIDIA DGX Systems, a platform purpose-built for the unique demands of AI. You can deploy these universal systems for any AI workload with the familiar management tools of Red Hat Enterprise Linux while employing IT-developed methods and optimized AI software from NVIDIA. Red Hat OpenShift is also certified for use with DGX as a part of the NVIDIA DGX-Ready Software program.

Run advanced financial and market risk applications with record-breaking performance

The Securities Technology Analysis Center (STAC)-A2 Benchmark suite is the industry standard for testing technology stacks used for compute-intensive analytic workloads. Red Hat and NVIDIA collaborated to create the first public STAC-A2 results using Red Hat OpenShift. Compared to all other publicly reported results, this solution, based on Red Hat OpenShift and NVIDIA DGX A100, set several new records for performance metrics and energy efficiency. The results affirm Red Hat OpenShift's ability to run compute-heavy, high-performance workloads.
