TENSORRT- FASTER AI, LOWER COSTS

Putting AI to Work 100x Faster

““…NVIDIA is demonstrating how an NVIDIA DGX Station running NVIDIA TensorRT and using only one of the four Tesla V100swe’ve equipped DGX Station with can perform a common inferencing task 100X faster than a system without GPUs….One NVIDIA GPU-enabled system doing the same work as 100 CPU-only systems means 100 times fewer cloud servers to rent or buy.”.”
