Businesses seeking to harness the power of AI need customized models tailored to their specific industry needs. NVIDIA AI Foundry is a service that enables enterprises to use data, accelerated computing and software tools to create and deploy custom models that can supercharge their generative AI initiatives. Just as TSMC manufactures chips designed by other Read Article NVIDIA NIM and TensorRT-LLM minimize inference latency and maximize throughput for Llama 3.1 models to generate tokens faster.
The broad range of deployment options includes NVIDIA-Certified Systems from global server manufacturing partners including Cisco, Dell Technologies, Hewlett Packard Enterprise, Lenovo and Supermicro, as well as cloud instances from Amazon Web Services, Google Cloud and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure.
Additionally, Together AI, a leading AI acceleration cloud, today announced it will enable its ecosystem of over 100,000 developers and enterprises to use its NVIDIA GPU-accelerated inference stack to deploy Llama 3.1 endpoints and other open models on DGX Cloud.
“Every enterprise running generative AI applications wants a faster user experience, with greater efficiency and lower cost,” said Vipul Ved Prakash, founder and CEO of Together AI. “Now, developers and enterprises using the Together Inference Engine can maximize performance, scalability and security on NVIDIA DGX Cloud.”
NVIDIA NeMo Speeds and Simplifies Custom Model Development
With NVIDIA NeMo integrated into AI Foundry, developers have at their fingertips the tools needed to curate data, customize foundation models and evaluate performance. NeMo technologies include:
- NeMo Curator is a GPU-accelerated data-curation library that improves generative AI model performance by preparing large-scale, high-quality datasets for pretraining and fine-tuning.
- NeMo Customizer is a high-performance, scalable microservice that simplifies fine-tuning and alignment of LLMs for domain-specific use cases.
- NeMo Evaluator provides automatic assessment of generative AI models across academic and custom benchmarks on any accelerated cloud or data center.
- NeMo Guardrails orchestrates dialog management, supporting accuracy, appropriateness and security in smart applications with large language models to provide safeguards for generative AI applications.
Using the NeMo platform in NVIDIA AI Foundry, businesses can create custom AI models that are precisely tailored to their needs. This customization allows for better alignment with strategic objectives, improved accuracy in decision-making and enhanced operational efficiency. For instance, companies can develop models that understand industry-specific jargon, comply with regulatory requirements and integrate seamlessly with existing workflows.
“As a next step of our partnership, SAP plans to use NVIDIA’s NeMo platform to help businesses to accelerate AI-driven productivity powered by SAP Business AI,” said Philipp Herzig, chief AI officer at SAP.
Enterprises can deploy their custom AI models in production with NVIDIA NeMo Retriever NIM inference microservices. These help developers fetch proprietary data to generate knowledgeable responses for their AI applications with retrieval-augmented generation (RAG).
“Safe, trustworthy AI is a non-negotiable for enterprises harnessing generative AI, with retrieval accuracy directly impacting the relevance and quality of generated responses in RAG systems,” said Baris Gultekin, Head of AI, Snowflake. “Snowflake Cortex AI leverages NeMo Retriever, a component of NVIDIA AI Foundry, to further provide enterprises with easy, efficient, and trusted answers using their custom data.”
Custom Models Drive Competitive Advantage
One of the key advantages of NVIDIA AI Foundry is its ability to address the unique challenges faced by enterprises in adopting AI. Generic AI models can fall short of meeting specific business needs and data security requirements. Custom AI models, on the other hand, offer superior flexibility, adaptability and performance, making them ideal for enterprises seeking to gain a competitive edge.
