ONTAP AI: Delivering the promise

D-I-Y has its place, like weed control. Building out your AI infrastructure is another story. ONTAP AI consolidates a data center’s worth of analytics, training, and inference compute into a single, 5-petaflop AI system.

Why NetApp ONTAP AI?

What AI promises, ONTAP AI delivers

Powered by NVIDIA DGX BasePOD™ and NetApp cloud-connected all-flash storage, NetApp ONTAP AI helps you fully realize the promise of AI and deep learning (DL). You can simplify, accelerate, and integrate your data pipeline with the ONTAP AI proven architecture. Streamline the flow of data reliably and speed up analytics, training, and inference with your data fabric that spans from edge to core to cloud.

NetApp ONTAP AI is one of the first converged infrastructure stacks to incorporate NVIDIA DGX A100, the world’s first 5-petaflop AI system, and NVIDIA Mellanox® high-performance Ethernet switches. You get unified AI workloads, simplified deployment, and fast return on investment.

Key benefits

Simplify, scale, and integrate your data pipeline for DL with the ONTAP AI proven architecture, powered by NVIDIA DGX BasePOD™ and NetApp cloud-connected all-flash storage.
