Collaboration brings commercial support for
NVIDIA GPU-accelerated workloads running on Red Hat Enterprise
Linux and Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform
Red Hat, Inc. (NYSE: RHT), the world's leading provider of open
source solutions, today announced it has deepened its alliance with
NVIDIA to accelerate the enterprise adoption of AI, machine
learning and data analytics workloads in production environments,
and is launching an early access program for prospective customers.
By combining Red Hat’s leading enterprise open source software
solutions with NVIDIA’s innovative GPU hardware, CUDA-X
acceleration libraries, and NGC container registry, the companies
are demonstrating new capabilities for running GPU-accelerated
workloads across the hybrid cloud. The NGC container registry
provides a rich catalog of GPU-accelerated AI/ML and data analytics
containers that can run on a foundation of Red Hat Enterprise Linux
and Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform with supported NVIDIA GPUs
on-premise and in the cloud.
It starts with Linux: building the future on the right
foundation
Fueled by an ever-increasing global data pool, technologies like
AI/ML are changing the business landscape through automation,
optimization and analysis. From fraud detection in financial
services to recommendation engines in entertainment and e-commerce,
data-driven AI computing is having an impact throughout the
enterprise. These advances are enabled by accelerated computing
technology from NVIDIA, which aims to push the boundaries of what
is possible and—along with Red Hat—help to democratize the same
computational resources powering the fastest supercomputers in the
world.
The operating system is the heartbeat of these systems, and
Linux is a de facto standard for running highly available,
reliable, and critical workloads in data centers and cloud
deployments. The combination of Red Hat and NVIDIA technologies
enables applications to more efficiently tap into the raw
computational power needed to run resource-intensive workloads and
scale them across hybrid environments.
In October 2018, Red Hat announced the certification of Red Hat
Enterprise Linux on NVIDIA® DGX-1™ systems, opening the door for
enterprises to more easily move GPU-accelerated workloads from
experimental, sandbox test environments into production. Building
on this work, the companies have now certified Red Hat Enterprise
Linux on additional NVIDIA-powered computing platforms, including
NVIDIA DGX-2 AI systems and NVIDIA T4 GPU-powered systems available
from the world’s leading server manufacturers.
From the data center to the cloud: running a consistent,
standards-based operating environment at cloud scale
Cloud-native application development describes the process of
building applications using fine-grained components such as
microservices and deploying them in Linux containers where they can
be managed by a container platform. This provides a greater level
of consistency, availability, portability and scale over
traditional applications, making it well-suited for running
accelerated applications across private, public and hybrid
clouds.
Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform is the industry’s most
comprehensive enterprise Kubernetes platform: a security-focused,
consistent foundation to deliver applications across the hybrid
cloud, with full-stack automated operations and more streamlined
developer workflows to help get to market faster. In collaboration
with NVIDIA, the platform is extended to support NVIDIA
GPU-accelerated systems in container environments.
To encapsulate large scale AI/ML container deployment and
management practices, Red Hat and NVIDIA are working on a joint
reference architecture that takes advantage of OpenShift Operators
to better streamline customer implementations in enterprise data
centers. This work aims to help prospective and current enterprises
customers to accelerate their adoption of AI and data analytics at
scale.
Tune in to the Red Hat Summit livestream on Thursday, May 9,
2019, from 8:30-10:30 a.m. EDT to hear Red Hat Chief Technology
Officer Chris Wright and NVIDIA Vice President of Computing
Software Chris Lamb discuss details about the companies’ expanded
alliance and ongoing collaborative work.
Supporting Quotes
Chris Wright, chief technology officer, Red Hat“Technologies
like artificial intelligence and machine learning are fundamentally
changing the way we do business; however, enterprises are still
facing challenges related to compatibility and support for these
workloads. Through our work with NVIDIA, we are combining leading
hardware and software to deliver solutions to address these
challenges and help lay the foundation for data-driven innovation
to thrive.”
Chris Lamb, vice president, Computing Software, NVIDIA“Today’s
enterprises running AI and analytics workloads at scale need
world-class accelerated computing technology combined with
easy-to-use, advanced software management tools. Through our
expanded collaboration, NVIDIA and Red Hat are enabling businesses
and organizations worldwide to more effortlessly explore and deploy
AI and analytics at scale.”
Steve Conway, senior vice president of research, Hyperion
Research"High-performance technologies are moving at a brisk rate
into enterprise data centers to accelerate product development and
business operations - including financial services, ERP and sales
analysis, fraud detection and cybersecurity, and machine
learning-AI. The hybrid cloud solutions from Red Hat and NVIDIA are
designed to make accelerated computing use easier for enterprises
on-premise and in the cloud."
