Advanced Cluster through the AI Initiative

As a part of the AI initiative, New York State has invested $75 million to procure a new AI cluster to be installed and managed by the University at Albany. The first phase of the initiative, to be completed in Fall 2024, includes: 

  • 24 NVIDIA DGX A100 systems (each with 8 NVIDIA A100 GPUs)

  • 3 Lambda scalers (each with 8 NVIDIA L40s) 

  • Over 5 petabytes of NetApp storage (1.66 petabytes of all flash performance storage and about 3.75 petabytes of additional capacity storage for research)
