What GenAI service do you need?

GPU supercomputers in the cloud, co-designed with NVIDIA. H100 & L40S accelerators networked at hyperscale with RDMA InfiniBand. The power of bare metal that can be shaped to any use case.

  • Startups and Scaleups

    AI startups & scaleups requiring cost-effective dedicated metal to experiment, train and inference GenAI workloads.

  • Managed Colocation

    Enterprises, government and education teams looking to add GPU cluster capacity to existing workloads, with a better TCO and time-to-use than
on-premise.

  • AI Platforms

    Mid & large-scale application and platform developers who demand large-scale, high-performance training and inference GPU clusters in geographically diverse locations.

  • Wholesale & Hyperscale

    Private supercomputing GPU clusters at hyperscale. 32,000 GPUs in a single cluster, customized to suit the bespoke requirements of enterprises and CSPs. Delivered at data center level to expand private clusters or open new public AZs.

The power of SMC's cutting-edge GPU cloud, paired with NVIDIA AI Enterprise lets you get going on your journey to build sustainable AI. Pre-trained models, and over 100 frameworks, including NeMo, delivered with enterprise support from NVIDIA.
