The NVIDIA HGX A100 (4-GPU) platform is said to be used for artificial intelligence and machine learning systems. Peak performance will be 13 petaflops. The complex includes liquid cooling based on Lenovo Neptune technology. Its use will significantly reduce power consumption at peak system performance. It is also noted that the NVIDIA Mellanox HDR InfiniBand smart switches (200 Gbps), which support in-network computing, will provide the lowest possible latency and high network throughput.
