Building Blocks for a New Class of Enterprise Infrastructure
AI deployments thrive on speed, data, and scale. That’s why NVIDIA is expanding NVIDIA-Certified Systems to include enterprise storage certification — for streamlined AI factory deployments in the enterprise with accelerated computing, networking, software, and storage.
As Enterprises Build AI Factories, Access to High-Quality Data is Imperative
The new NVIDIA-Certified Storage program announced today at the NVIDIA GTC global AI conference validates that enterprise storage systems meet stringent performance and scalability data requirements for AI and high-performance computing workloads.
Leading Enterprise Data Platform and Storage Providers Are Already Onboard
Leading enterprise data platform and storage providers are already onboard, ensuring businesses have trusted options from day one. These include DDN, Dell Technologies, Hewlett Packard Enterprise, Hitachi Vantara, IBM, NetApp, Nutanix, Pure Storage, VAST Data, and WEKA.
Building Blocks for a New Class of Enterprise Infrastructure
At GTC, NVIDIA also announced the NVIDIA AI Data Platform, a customizable reference design to build a new class of enterprise infrastructure for demanding agentic AI workloads.
NVIDIA-Certified Storage: A Prerequisite for Partners
The NVIDIA-Certified Storage designation is a prerequisite for partners developing agentic AI infrastructure solutions built on the NVIDIA AI Data Platform. Each of these NVIDIA-Certified Storage partners will deliver customized AI data platforms, in collaboration with NVIDIA, that can harness enterprise data to reason and respond to complex queries.
NVIDIA-Certified: More Than Four Years of Delivering Optimal Performance and Scalability
NVIDIA-Certified was created more than four years ago as the industry’s first certification program dedicated to tuning and optimizing AI systems to ensure optimal performance, manageability, and scalability. Each NVIDIA-Certified system is rigorously tested and validated to deliver enterprise-grade AI performance.
Solutions Based on NVIDIA Enterprise RAs
Solutions based on NVIDIA Enterprise RAs are available from the world’s leading systems providers to reduce the time, cost, and complexity of enterprise AI deployments. Enterprise RAs are now available for a wide range of NVIDIA Hopper and NVIDIA Blackwell platforms, including NVIDIA HGX B200 systems and the new NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Server Edition GPU.
Conclusion
The expansion of NVIDIA-Certified Systems to include enterprise storage certification is a significant milestone in the journey to build AI factories that can harness the power of data. With the proliferation of AI and the increasing need for high-quality data, this certification program will help enterprises build AI factories that can process massive amounts of data, train models faster, and drive more accurate, reliable AI outcomes.
